‘Sex Education’ Season 4 Has Way Too Many Characters For Its Own Good

The Big Picture Season 4 of Sex Education witnessed a major change when the central location of the events in the series shifted from Moordale Secondary to Cavendish College. By the end of Season 3, Moordale’s funding was cut off, forcing the students at the school to look for an alternative option. As a result of this change established by Season 3, the show welcomes the opportunity to remove some of the characters who may not have enough to contribute to the story.

Consequently, the central characters and their journeys suffer the most as the subject keeps shifting from one heated debate to another, to the point that one even wonders about the point of introducing characters to build such storylines, whereas the overall impact remains low. For instance, Beau’s character exists only to lend some relevance to Viv. On the contrary, Jackson and Viv’s friendship seems to have more potential that was not explored properly.

Pivotal Relationships Get Ignored in Season 4 In another instance that proves Season 4 should have just maintained its tight circle, another character is introduced to serve as a potential lover for Adam when he meets a girl at the farm where he starts working. Instead of exploring the complexity of Eric and Adam's relationship, Sex Education allows the characters to have their own journeys.

While enough insight into Maeve’s mother Erin’s life previously may have helped understand why Sean was angry, the lack of attention that Sean’s personal struggles got contributed to the lackluster conflict within the character. Thanks to Maeve’s emotionally charged eulogy and a beautiful song by the former Moordale teacher Colin Hendricks , the funeral still paves the way to some of the best moments of the season but overall, it does not do much for Sean Wiley as a character.
