A hilarious deep dive into the transitional period of your adolescent life. Sharply funny, deeply realistic, surprisingly moving, brilliantly told, and truly sex-positive at its heart. Sex Education season 4 will soon be the spotlight season we have all been waiting for. A raunchily brilliant Netflix Original, its alums like Otis, Maeve, and Eric (to name a few) have attracted a huge and loyal fanbase. Not to mention the plaudits for their beautiful representation of all those heavy concerns. It does not feel hectoring, rather, the lightness of touch does it all.

And most of the credits, if not all, go to its stellar cast. With each new season, the cast has just expanded in number. And interestingly, it never felt like too much. However, a few months earlier we had the sad news of the departure of its four beloved cast members that left fans shattered. We almost thought Sex Education will never be the same. Until yesterday. Netflix rolled out the first-look images of its fourth season, which is now under production. Adding to our delight, they have recruited the face of Schitt’s Creek among 7 other new cast members to make up for the loss.
