SEX EDUCATION
Maturity rating 18
Sex Education is set in the UK and centres around high school students trying to figure out sex, relationships and sexual/gender identities. Socially awkward high school student Otis Milburn (Asa Butterfield) may not have much experience in the lovemaking department, but he gets good guidance on the topic in his personal sex ed course -- living with mom Jean (Gillian Anderson), who is a sex therapist. Being surrounded by manuals, videos and tediously open conversations about sex, Otis has become a reluctant expert on the subject. When his classmates learn about his home life, Otis decides to use his insider knowledge to improve his status at school, so he teams with whip-smart bad girl Maeve to set up an underground sex therapy clinic to deal with their classmates' problems. But through his analysis of teenage sexuality, Otis realizes that he may need some therapy of his own.

The show is hysterical and Eric Effiong is EASILY one of the best characters: played by Ncuti Gatwa, he's fun, loud and proud, not to mention his sense of style is next level. His character isn't without struggles, having come from a religious household, getting into a complicated relationships (no spoilers who with!) and dealing with discrimination and hate towards his gender expression. Fortunately his sense of identity as a gay black man is strong and he's able to overcome whatever life throws his way - he's here, he's queer - get used to it!
SEX EDUCATION IS SET TO RETURN FOR SEASON 3 ON SEPTEMBER 17TH
