Sex Education

Binged. I actually thought the season started off a bit wobbly (it always irks me when they go full preachy progressive, it's so crude) but by episode 4 all was back on course and doing what the show does best, which is portray the kind of warm relationships between characters that make you feel gooey inside.

Ncuti Gatwa's star quality literally pours out of him, I don't know how he hasn't won all the Emmy's yet, but am liking Eric less and less as a character. His treatment of Adam throughout this entire season was abysmal. Realistic, since we are talking about self-obsessed teenagers, but really painful to watch.

The non-binary character is awesome too. They are hot!!!

I loved the latest season. I really hope we get another season before this gets canned by Netflix… since they must be graduating soon?
 
Couldn't help but binge this season. As always, the on-screen relationships feel so genuine and relatable, the main reason why this is one of my favourite shows ever. I liked that they fleshed out more characters this season also.
Except Rahim, who still has the personality of a stale biscuit.
But that moment on the coach... I cackled.

They can definitely squeeze out one more season, there were quite a few cliffhangers.
 
Aimee is the best.

Loved Eric’s Lagos night out.

Alien girl is a horrible girlfriend and Ola deserves much better.

The new school principal was a bit of a non event.

I hope they can wrap it up in one final season.

I finished episode 6 and yeah I kinda don't know what to make of Eric's trajectory so far... Hope the last two episodes are a positive surprise in that regard. I'm enjoying the season though. Lily and Ruby's plotlines were my favorite ones so far - so heartbreaking. Especially that closing scene in episode 4. Ufff

There was too much toilet humour this season, it felt cheap and lazy every time.

Eric’s character development this season has been disappointing but Ncuti absolutely killed it.

My heart may have actually broken in half for Adam and Ruby this season. Though I guess we’re heading for Rahim and Adam getting together which could potentially be cute.
 
Yeah did feel sorry for Adam this season. Eric was a bit of an arse at times I felt and was surprised that he felt no regret.
Rahim just seems to lack personality and comes across as rather emotionless so unless they flesh out his character, I can't imagine him getting together with Adam would be that interesting. Rahim saying Adam's final heartfelt poem wasn't that bad was a bit mean. Was beautiful and yet heartbreaking.
 
I quite liked Eric's honesty even if it was painful, it also opens the way to explore feelings beyond norms of monogamy.

It really seems they could not fit Rahim for this season, but with a little push I could see him and Adam having something more.

Just finished the latest season. It's amazing!

Highlights for me this season are Aimee's and Maeve's friendship, Eric's realisation that Adam and him are just different and Ruby showing a different side of her. What happened between Cal and Jackson is also very intriguing and I'm hoping they will explore that relationship more in the next season. Lily's story broke my heart too. Ola could have been more supportive and accepting but I guess she is a teenager after all and she also had her own share of problems. It's great that it all worked out in the end anyway.

It definitely building towards something happening between Adam and Rahim in the future but I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Overall, the characters are more fleshed out this season and it gives them more dimension. Can't wait for the next season!
 
On the one hand I’m so happy I’ve seen it all and know how it goes, loved it…
And on the other I hate myself that I rushed it in half a week and gotta wait so long for the final season (I hope).

Episode 5 with the ‘shit sock’’ was dreadful. Like some outtake from a Carry On film.

And I think the Carry On team would have made it funnier!

A lot of the humour in SE this time is very forced and poorly done. I’ll be in the minority here, but I don’t think the show needs a 4th season…

Not to be hyperbolic but episode 5 was one of the worst things I've ever seen.
It’s been more tiresome and ‘Benny Hill’ this season. I’m about to start episode 7 and I’m getting sick of them all now! Too many characters. Really weak attempts at humour. I hate that fucking bellend music teacher who’s seems to have a lot more screen time this season too!
