Jan 4, 2022Disappointingly unnecessary sequel to the quirky blockbuster first season doesn't do anything worthwhile except waste it's protagonists and introduce bland caricatures.

It is gruesome and violent and scatalogical, but then it is funny and pointed and wry, and then it defers to a tender look, or an affectionate touch, and shows its heart. Lesser shows would give you whiplash, but the tone here is uniquely its own, and just perfectly, recognisably, The End of the F***ing World.

It’s true to the spirit of season one, which made the two messed-up central characters Alex Lawther’s James and Jessica Barden’s Alyssa sympathetic against all odds. It has the same gonzo tone and darkly funny writing. And it has a decent plotline that’s linked to the action of season one in a not-forced way.

Overall, fans of The End of the F***ing World's first season should be pleased with what they find in Season 2. Though there are new faces and places involved, it's still got that same dreary dryness and wild unpredictability in play. While the second season doesn't exactly feel necessary, it's still fun to take another aimless ride with the show's resident weirdos and see where we end up.
