In its third outing, the series remains cringingly honest and engagingly heartfelt, with just the right amount of pathos and the occasional outrageous sight gag. Read full review

Now it knows exactly what it is. The writing, and particularly Taylor’s direction, ooze confidence as we flit from heartfelt tête-à-têtes that could be from a Nineties romcom to some riotous comic set-pieces. It is terrific fun throughout. Read full review

There’s very little to complain about when it comes to Sex Education’s third outing and those who loved the first and second seasons will be thrilled with the upcoming episodes, which set the same raunchy tone and tell similarly important stories about adolescent love. Read full review

The drama that springs between characters isn’t as earthshaking as the drama rising at Moordale, and this may be “Sex Education”s most important detail. ... Nunn makes the world rumble with her overarching plot instead, and so “Sex Education” lets us feel, put in a word, good. But it doesn’t ask us to look away from all that makes us feel bad, either, and that’s even better. Read full review

The series is still funny and, if you’ll forgive the pun, spunky. But it veers dangerously into the territory of trying too hard, of doing too much. There’s a lot to enjoy in season three, but simply not enough room for its brilliance to breathe. Read full review

None of it is soapy, but almost all of it is funny, or at least tinged with humor. Read full review

The Guardian Lucy Mangan

Sep 17, 2021

The focus is wider (Jean and Jakob’s is one of the many adult relationships given more attention, and there are more students introduced too) and perhaps as a result the strokes are broader. Read full review

The series stirs the feelings of those who are watching while those young people, and also adults, are discovering themselves between mistakes and successes, that is, just living. Bringing up issues of friendship, romance, trauma, sex and identity, the new episodes once again succeed in telling deep stories that bring identification.… Expand

Amazing, emotional season 3. Watching the relationships of all these cool characters is insanely interesting and intriguing. And sad.. I'm really looking forward to continuing !

With a raw and emotional beginning of this season, most of the characters have a good development throughout the whole show. Hope they continue at least with one more season and not ruining it with a movie which only purpose is to end a lot of stories in an hour and a half.

Así de primeras, la he disfrutado tanto que no quería que se acabase. Normalmente, como espectador, quieres llegar al final y conocer el desenlace de todo. En este caso no, quería ver el transcurso de todo, el cómo se va desarrollando, me pareció fascinante esa sensación.

Además, es un salto de calidad respecto a las anteriores, sobre todo en cuanto a tema artístico y a desarrollo de personajes, por fin desaparecen los clichés.

· Cosas buenas: Todo lo social que trata, es crítica, y te muestra la realidad tal y como es: incómoda. Además, es súper adictiva y los personajes secundarios dan un gran paso adelante.
· Cosas malas: Puede que algunos arcos argumentales no te interesen demasiado, y Otis, el protagonista, cada vez pierde más fuerza.
· Conclusión: De esas series que te atrapan, que necesitas ver sí os sí, y aún por encima, la tercera temporada ha sido la mejor. Muy recomendada.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sex Education used to be fun to watch for seasons 1 and 2. But season 3 had far too much pain and hopelessness and had entirely too many plot lines which made them shallow. I just finished watching Season 3, and I can't think of a single character that survived unscathed. It felt like Netflix borrowed writers from 13 Reasons Why...putting the fun, giddy, characters and actually twisting the plots to inflict such pain. I kept waiting for a suicide. It was too heavy and had way too many arguments and breakups. It list all the fun. Very disappointing.… Expand
