Sex Education’s last season has been released on Netflix. The show which was released in 2019, and quickly became a global sensation, has come to an end. Sex Education followed the life of Moordale students Otis, Eric, and Maeve for four seasons. Fans are dejected by streamer’s decision to end one of the biggest shows on Netflix. But, there is good news for the fans of the show. Netflix UK is working on a series similar to beloved Sex Education.
Why Sex education is ending?
Sex education’s official Instagram shared a heartfelt message from Lauria Nunn for the fans last year. The Goodbye post gave fans a hint as to why the writers decided to end the show. The post read;
“This was not an easy decision to make, but as the themes and stories of the new season crystallized, it became clear that this was the right time to graduate.”
She continued:
“We are incredibly proud of Sex Education and feel indebted to our brilliant writers, cast, and crew who put so much heart into making every episode. They have worked tirelessly to bring you this final season, and we can’t wait to share it with you.”
It was the right decision to end the journey of Moordale students. Fans wanted to see the future of Otis’s unofficial sex clinic and the future moves of the other characters. But it seems like a lot of the actors have already moved on to new and exciting projects. Lily and Ola were not present in the final season.
Ncuti Gatwa who played Eric on the show shared his own thoughts about the final season;
“I feel like we’ve outgrown it and we’ve given everything we can to it.”
It was a perfect decision to say goodbye to the show.
Is there going to be a Sex Education spinoff show?
There is no news about a Sex Education spinoff show. But there is going to be a new show on Netflix which has a similar tone to Sex education. Everything Now is set to release on October 5 this year. The show follows the journey of Mia Polanco, a 17-year-old fresh out of a mental hospital after battling with anorexia and is back for sixth form. The show will follow Mia’s struggle to experience everything she missed while being away.
The official synopsis of the show is;
“When Mia Polanco (a 17-year-old London girl with more wits than is good for her) is released from hospital after a lengthy battle with anorexia, she is thrust back into the fizzingly chaotic world of sixth form. Only to find that her friends have been spending her recovery time acquiring knowledge and experiences she herself has never known. Suddenly confronted with the realization that her childhood is racing by without her, Mia decides the only way to catch up is to make a bucket list.”
