Sex Education - Season 3: review

 


This show had a very positive evolution. It grew, improved, and approached a lot of topics that many would consider taboo. Check the previous review here.

This season starts with a significant change at Moordale’s - Hope, the new head-teacher. She may look nice in the first 5 minutes, but you’ll quickly realize she is there to make the students’ life very difficult. 

Relationships are more than sex

The show always focused on the complexity of relationships, and despite its title, it talks about more than sex.

To build a relationship, you must learn to listen, understand and deal with the other person. You need to discover them. The problem is, when you’re a teenager, you don’t know who you are yet. How would you be able to focus on others? 

Have you ever felt weird? Sure. Who never, right? But do you remember the dimension those feelings could gain when you’re a teen? 

There are more than boys and girls

Gender identity is the new topic of the season. As usually is represented in a sweet and understanding way. It helps the viewer comprehend the situation and emphasize with the characters. 

There are a significant amount of different kinds of relationships and a wide concept of sexuality and self-discovery. In Sex Education, they try to make everyone feel represented. And that’s so important!

Comic moments

The show is about self-discovery and respecting everyone, but what makes it even better is the sense of humor. It can surprise you and definitely will make you laugh.

That trip to France was amazing!

Life is hard

The students learn a crucial lesson: life is hard. Things will not be okay now because they went wrong before. Life has no compassion and doesn’t owe you anything. You need to try harder and harder until you reach your goal. 

Sex Education is also a story about fighting for what you want and believe in yourself. 

Who am I?

The biggest goal of us all is to find ourselves. It is a diary and scary fight, yet, quite rewarding. Sex Education has a delightful way of showing this.

Once more, a great season that makes us eagerly wait for the next one.

Conversations with a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes

This is not the sort of show which I usually talk about on this blog. However, as a psychologist, I’m usually quite curious in regards to criminals and their minds; and one of these days I started watching this documentary on Netflix . Taking into consideration the kind of thing this is, I can’t say I ‘liked’ it. I mean what you see in there is nothing to like, but I was rather terrified, which is probably the usual response. Nonetheless, it was definitely a good documentary. The eyes of a killer Everything displayed in this story was terrible. The descriptions, Bundy’s posture, everything seemed like some sort of horror show, putting into perspective what we may consider to be lucky or unlucky in this life. Before I even start watching it, I read somewhere that this was the kind of thing you shouldn’t watch alone. Sounds accurate right now. At the time, and considering my, mostly academic, experience, I didn’t think that this could actually be so upsetting. ...

Young Sheldon – A Heartfelt and Hilarious Journey

  Young Sheldon is a delightful surprise, blending humor, heart, and a touch of nostalgia. As a prequel to The Big Bang Theory , the show offers insight into the childhood of Sheldon Cooper, one of the most iconic characters in modern TV.  A Show That Grows Beyond Sheldon While you may start watching due to curiosity about Sheldon's early years, it soon becomes clear that this is not just about his childhood. The show includes an incredible variety of characters with their own charm and depth.

You start to care about each character's struggles and triumphs. This show quickly stands on its own as a heartfelt, family-driven sitcom.

House of the Dragon: Season 2 - a Matter of Good Characters

  As a fan of the original Game of Thrones , I approached the second season of House of the Dragon with high hopes. Unfortunately, I found it a bit boring compared to its predecessor.  The intricate political drama and the rich character development that made Game of Thrones a global phenomenon seem to be lacking here. Still, the show features some compelling characters who hold my interest. Daemon Targaryen Daemon Targaryen remains one of the most intriguing characters in the series. Although his arc in this season isn't as strong as before, he still commands the screen with his charisma and unpredictability.  Daemon's complex personality, oscillating between villainy and heroism, keeps viewers guessing his true intentions. His relationship with Rhaenyra and his struggle for power add depth to his character. He is, no doubt, a central figure in the unfolding drama. Aemond Targaryen Aemond steps into the spotlight in the second season, bringing a new level of intensity ...
