Sex Education was a true breath of fresh air in Netflix's library. Premiering in January 2019, the show earned critical acclaim for its clever, earnest, and delightfully subversive approach to teen sexuality, offering insightful views on the topic without sacrificing its irreverent and quirky humor. Sex Education ended its four-season run last year, leaving a huge hole in the streamer's original line-up that probably won't be filled any time soon.
Release Date January 11, 2019 Creator Laurie Nunn Cast Asa Butterfield , Gillian Anderson , Kedar Williams-Stirling , Alistair Petrie Seasons 4 4 Season 4 A somewhat underwhelming ending Unfortunately, season 4 of Sex Education is the most underwhelming of the four. The storylines feel weirdly disconnected, largely because each character is sort of broken into their own little world.
Season 2 shines a light on some of the best characters in Sex Education, from the delightfully odd Lily to the hilarious teacher Colin. However, Aimee dominates the season with a poignant story about sexual assault that shifts her character's direction; it's a brilliant journey that carries on all the way to season 4, and the show tackles it with nuance, thoughtfulness, and honesty.
