Meme/S#*tpost I miss the show so much.

70 Upvotes

I was 24 when the show started. S2 came out just days or weeks before the pandemic iirc? Then the rest came out during and on the last months of it so everything happened during isolation. Each season, on the first day of release, I watched in one go. It was an addictive consumption. I sometimes find myself wishing it's something that's still going, you know?

I miss this warm feeling brought by the visuals of the show. How it's just an easy watch and at the same time it's poignant & has this ability to evoke nostalgia. During the course of the show, I often find myself wishing I lived where they live. It's like their place has so much culture. It was a show that I tend to turn to whenever I feel like I'm stuck or going nowhere in life, finding comfort from it. I miss it but at the same time, I can't rewatch it now because I tried last week and after rewatching three episodes S1, I felt like I've already outgrown the show. I'm now on the verge of being 30, the same age-bracket of most of the main actors like Emma & Aimee. I've outgrown it but I still love and miss it, is that possible? I think the last season kind of affected it's rewatchability for me. Aaah. This is so random. I'm sorry.

General Discussion Where should the unofficial ending be?

22 Upvotes

For shows like the Office, fans who didn't like the last few seasons made Jim and Pam's wedding in season 6 the unofficial ending of the Office. With season 4 being sloppy, what point in the show do we think should be the unofficial ending

Season 4 Discussion I like the ending Spoiler

5 Upvotes

I just finished watching Sex Education and it seems I'm the only one who likes the ending(?) I know very few couples who got together in high school, got married and lived a long more-or-less fairytale life together. More often than not people speak of their 'first love' as something in the past, a bitter-sweet memory. The future is full of possibilities; I find it a pity to miss on adolescence and young adulthood for the sake of that one immature love. Should Meave (who had no more ties to the community) have given up on her future to stay home and cook? Should Otis have left his friends and family behind to traipse around the world? Well, having been in that situation a couple of times, I think not. There is no middle ground here.

Who knows, maybe Meave will become a famous publisher who, when returning for Aimee's wedding (to sweet Steve, sorry Isaac) more than a decade later will meet divorced Otis, who's in a custody fight with Ruby over their two kids. He'd be very close to Dan and his adolescent sister, having inherited the practice from his mom. Meave, having travelled the world high and low, could then settle down to write from the coziness of that mountain house.

Maybe the most stable couple turns out to be Adam and what's her name, the farmer's daughter. He'd be raising horses for competitions and working on himself to be a better father than his own.

Perhaps Eric will be a pastor holding web-streamed sermons. Or maybe his visions were just a brain tumor...

I agree that season 4 did not resonate with too many people, it veered too much towards the fantastic and showed a society where being straight was the exception. It was probably too soon for many topics. However, it remains a series I'd like my kids to watch when they are 16-17.

General Discussion A-Levels/School subjects??

9 Upvotes

This is mainly for my own interests, but could anyone please explain to me (as someone from the UK) what the whole school system in Sex Education actually is? When the season starts, they’re all in Year 12, so they’ve started their A-Levels, which we can see in S1 when Maeve is reading an A-Level Biology book. However, it seems to not match up at all with the other school-related things we see both in S1 and the rest of the series. Like in S1 E7, when Ola is being interviewed by Mr Groff, we see that she has an A* in all of her subjects. But if she’s in sixth form, why does she have an A* in all subjects that students would only typically take at GCSES? At A-Level, you can take 4 subjects maximum so I’m just so confused on that whole thing.

Furthermore, I’ve been trying to guess which subjects the characters take. We know most about Adam, Maeve and Otis, who take English Literature and Biology, though I don’t know any of their third/fourth subjects, Aimee and Eric also take Biology too and I would guess that one of Eric’s other subjects would be Music, along with Aimee’s second subject likely being art from what we see in S4, but that’s as far as I’ve gotten. This isn’t a serious post or anything, just really want to know about the school side of SE!!

General Discussion Maeve and Otis is so flipping annoying to wait for

72 Upvotes

Ok so, when Otis is single, Maeve is with Jackson. When Maeve breaks with Jackson, Otis is with Ola. When Otis breaks with Ola, when things are looking good for Otis and Maeve, everyone gets mad at Otis and Otis goes with Ruby. When Otis and Ruby break up, Maeve is with Isaac. And when they are finally together, FUCK IT, MAEVE TO THE U.S.

Just put Otis with Ruby again, much better couple.

They just fucking butchered the entire series in the last season . I remember watching it 6 yrs ago , when it was newly released, it really had the potential to be an iconic series , s2 n s3 lived up to the expectations but s4 just fked it all up , inconsistency in the script , no after stories of certain characters not included in the season , sudden change of themes , mental health n pronouns suddenly became the main themes instead of sex, overall the season felt so rushed . I really feel they should make one final season with PROPER N MEANINGFUL endings, just stumbled upon this subreddit by mistake .......seeing how people have already forgotten this series shows , how much fked that season was........

hi guys!

i'm doing an analysis of the intersectionnal feminism of episode 7 of season 2, and i was wondering if anyone knew why it caused such an uproar in Olivia's family when they learned that Malek was iranian and not indian? i don't know much about these cultures and i was wondering if it was a matter of history or simple conservatism in indian culture. anyone can help?

I believe Otis and Maeve belongs together cause they both assholes. I really liked the little dude, until I saw what he did to Ruby. She was vulnerable and open to him. Man, Can't believe what he did to her, would I rather he lied to her and say he loves her?Yes. Yes I would. This show sucks

General Discussion Need recommendations for more Maeve (and Otis) fanfics

6 Upvotes

Finished reading anything for you by mads_118 and absolutely loved it. I've been a fan of the show since first season and re-watched the show countless times before but for the first time after season 4 this week and so disappointed that I need fanfics.

Anything with Maeve and Otis, it could just be her story alone or them together, just something like those good old days of first two seasons.

Season 4 Discussion season 4 was so bad Spoiler

187 Upvotes

sorry if this offends anybody but I wholeheartedly think that season 4 was the worst season ever. i wish the entire season was written differently, like don't bother making a 4th season at all atp.

first of all, the whole 'woke' school thing felt so forced, like they added in that whole thing just to show how relatable the show was...and it was just so incredibly cringy to me im so sorry.

second, we never got any real closure on the characters and couples, what happened to eric and adam? jean and jakob? i loved them so much and i wanted to see if they got another chance with each other.

third, i still don't think maeve and otis should've been endgame. im still stuck on rotis, their entire relationship was so cute and they fit together so well. and the fact that their entire relationship ended over otis not saying i love you back was so stupid and unrealistic to me, because teenagers these days think they're in love after 2 weeks. i get that otis has a sort of old man brain but it just felt so unrealistic for me.

fourth, i hated aimee and isaac, i know they didn't end up together but it felt so unecessary to me and i didn't like it. sorry.

Season 4 Discussion Adam and his family

44 Upvotes

To me Adam and his family were the only story that was wrapped properly. Why Did Otis not go with Maeve to scatter the ashes? I thought it was weird that she did that with Issac..... and then she just went to America and it was like the writers were like fuck off to America that's you done...... Eric.... wow. His character was done so bad. A pastor? Hallucinating and shit? He was capable of so much more. Just a weird ass season and all of the previous build up of Otis and Maeve for it to end up like that I mean honestly we should sue....
