Sex Education

Probably the best production Netflix has ever done so far. By the way it's not just for teenagers I'm 67

IT'S NOT SET IN THE 80'S, THEY HAVE MOBILE PHONES. IT'S NOT IN AMERICA, NOT ALL BRITISH SCHOOLS WEAR UNIFORMS. THEY ARE IN 6TH FORM, VERY FEW 6TH FORMS WEAR UNIFORMS. IT'S A RUGBY BALL, NOT AN AMERICAN FOOTBALL.

All in all I loved it.

I fell in with this when the first season dropped and got everyone I knew to watch it. How refreshing to see so many taboo subjects opening explored but, and here's the key, in a serious BUT FUNNY way. It offered light and shade. There were moments of real levity.

I'm a staunch ally, as I guess the majority of fans are, but I found this final season a TOTAL DISASTER. I'm not sure if there were new writers, but it lacks heart, humour, I felt like I was being preached at. The acting is wooden and the writIng is lazy. Am a straight male in his 40's with 4 grown up children and I don't need to be spoon fed situations to bring my attention to the battles the LGBTQIA+ community faces on a daily basis. There were too many new characters introduced for what had already been announced was a final season, in what felt like an attempt to "tick as many boxes" as possible but the result is a jumbled mess that doesn't really give ANY of the issues the time/sympathetic writing they deserve. You lose sight of the core characters, and by the end, the pay-off (which disappoints) just left me thinking 'meh'.

I am so surprised by this show! I'm a 38 year old dude who wouldn't even really consider watching a show like this. I just randomly clicked it because I was bored before going to bed. I typically watch documentaries and shows in the style of The Wire or Game of Thrones. Everything about this show is great! The vibrant acting, the story narrative, the gorgeous cinematography, the absolutely stunning location (Penarth, South Wales), the great characters, the relationships between characters, and Gillian Anderson! I'm also not a fan of sex being portrayed in films and tv because it's usually cringe-worthy, but this is fun and educational. It's like a coming of age film that's really fun but deals with important and complex subjects. I don't typically get hooked on shows but you got me Netflix! Cheers! Well done.

I am an 80 year old retired psychologist and I am totally enchanted with each and every one of these characters. Life is messy, their lives are messy, and they find ways to deal with and cope with real situations. The acting is wonderful, the stories are wonderful, the filming is wonderful...Simple, free advice? Watch it.
