Popcorn Culture - Review: Sex Education S4

We've had quite the journey with Otis, Eric, Maeve, Aimee, and gang, as we watched them grow from awkward teenagers with raging hormones into... slightly less awkward near-adults with raging hormones. The show has garnered a lot of praise for its portrayal of modern teenagers coming of age, and particularly for its sex-positive, inclusive storylines. In the fourth and final season, Otis (Asa Butterfield) is still offering his services as a pro bono sex therapist, albeit at a new school, and Eric (Ncuti Gatwa) is still his exuberant best friend. But with new friends thrown in the mix and impending adulthood beckoning, a lot of changes lie ahead too - not to mention, Otis' mother Jean (Gillian Anderson) trying to balance her career as a (real) sex therapist with a new baby. We review the last season, talk about the show's cultural impact and whether this was a fitting farewell.
