Season 2 Review:
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.

Season 1 Review:
The eight-part series, which arrives in a semi-surprise drop on Netflix Friday after debuting on the U.K.’s Channel 4, is a surprising tour de force, mashing up the pitch-black humor of British alternative comedies with the visual punch of an auteur-driven indie film. It’s also mercifully short. Individual episodes top out at around 20 minutes, making the series eminently bingeable, and giving it a taut, concise structure that more new shows could stand to mimic.

Season 1 Review:
Within the first five minutes, we get flashbacks to a nine-year-old James sticking his hand in a deep fryer just to feel something, and abundant evidence that he kills small animals. The show actually gets much darker from there.
But also, somehow, much more lovable.

Season 1 Review:
Written by Charlie Covell and directed by Jonathan Entwistle, The End of the F***ing World takes more unexpected narrative turns as it goes on, and that makes it worth watching, assuming you can muscle your way through the accompanying gloom and occasional gore. Both Lawther and Barden have a capacity to go from deadpan to deeply agitated in an instant, and those shifts become more compelling the more you watch.

One of the best shows i've watched in a while. Loved both Season 1 and 2. Only thing bad about it is that it's feel too short.

WHY DID THIS HAVE TO END? Loved it, the acting, the plot everything made this stand out from other drama/comedies.

The End Of The F***ing World is a very bizarre series with great characters and a great story. Because the episodes are 20 minutes max the series is very bingable. The characters have great development and are interesting.

I don't really have any gripes with this show. The acting, music, cinematography, writing, casting, story and pacing are all very enjoyable. Perhaps the only issue I have is the fact that it is so short. But that's not necessarily a negative

Hidden gem of a show, very unusual in terms of plot and characters but still very enjoyable. Follows two teenagers finding themselves over a series of misadventures. Both seasons are well written and acted by all parties.

The series would've been a perfect 10 if it ended halfway through episode 7, season 2.
