    This second season is slightly unnecessary and definitely not as strong as the first, however, it still maintains the same charm that mad James and Alyssa so likable in the first place.

    I don't think this lived up to the first season tbh but I'm not mad that they decided to release a 2nd season. I felt it started off a bit slow and I just don't feel like it caught the vibe that made me love S1 so much. As the season progressed though, I felt that it hit its stride and it started to reach the heights of S1.

    I also quite like how they ended it as it feels like the strange story is fully told now. Despite my reservations of S2 I'd definitely recommend watching both seasons. This show just scratches an itch that very few other shows do for me, it's aura is strange but I really like it.    … Expand

    Not nearly as good as the original, the show still has it's moments that are both touching and hilarious.

    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.
