    Eager to please but confused, Sex Education could do with a stint on the therapist’s couch itself.

Yes, it's R-rated for its softcore porn scenes which is a shame because it's really designed for a 13yo's mentality and budding hormones - we adults can and do see far better sex scenes so this is kind of a waste. And Gillian Anderson. From the FBI X-Files to an anorexic looking single-mom (because that hasn't been done to death) sex therapist just an explicit conversation away from license revocation. And the high school characters are played by those well into their 20s/30s, so that's really authentic [eye roll]. And this is a British series, so you get the weird accents, the confusing slang, and the general, beatdown depression of British life. All that in the first episode. Guys I tried, I really tried to get through the second episode but it was just as painful so I called time-of-death. I REALLY am anxious though to start "Future Man" season 2 like now!… Full Review »

Otis is a moronic dip**** and Maeve is the most unlikable jerk I've ever seen. It's not because she has a 'personality', which actually is the stereotypical 'I'm a jerk because I've suffered', it's simply because she's an **** Support characters are either stereotypical ****s or the 'aha! gotcha, you got it wrong' characters.

    Seriously, why is this crap so popular?    … Full Review »

    Not funny, not informative, a show about really stupid kids at their most self indulgent. Anderson should be embarrassed. Just plain boring.
