Sex education season 4
The School
One of the main issues this season revolved around the school. It was a foolish decision to create a school where not only were classes held, but every student was involved in every aspect. Throughout the season, our focus was largely on the two sex therapists, neglecting the school itself. Additionally, the introduction of three new characters seemed to lack substantial reasons for their presence, attempting to fill gaps but falling short.
The Deficiencies
I couldn't understand why so many characters seemed to vanish from this season. While some students transferred to other schools, they all lived in the same town and were friends, so we should have seen them at some point. The season gave the impression that several main characters, like Ola and her girlfriend, the French classmate (Eric's ex), and many other old school friends, disappeared. This is noteworthy because there were promising storylines, such as the potential romance between the Frenchman and Adams, that were left unexplored. The sudden disappearance of characters in the last season is quite puzzling.
Adams
I appreciate that Adams had a strong bond with his family, especially his father. However, what I found disappointing was how he became disconnected from his old friends. Even though he didn't continue attending school, we only see them all together once during the entire season, at a funeral, which felt insufficient.
Emi and Isaac
The development of their relationship felt rushed to me. I wasn't expecting it, and it left me wondering why it happened. In the last episode, the sudden focus on disability was indeed important, but it seemed somewhat out of place and introduced new characters with disabilities without any prior introduction throughout the season.
Vivien and the New Boy
This relationship developed at an astonishingly fast pace. While it was valuable to portray a toxic relationship, I expected to see more scenes and perhaps some defense from Jackson and the rest of Vivien's friends, especially considering the problematic behavior.
Eric
I found Eric's character development in this season a bit silly. His initial decision at the time of baptism was well-executed, and the reactions felt realistic. However, his sudden choice to become a pastor in the last scene felt rushed and somewhat implausible.
Otis
The character "Oh" was introduced abruptly, causing some confusion and negatively impacting the season. It didn't contribute much to the storyline, and the ending felt somewhat tragic. The resolution with Otis and Ruby acknowledging her as a great sex therapist seemed perplexing.
Maeve and Otis
The continuous tease of a Maeve and Otis relationship over three seasons without a significant payoff was frustrating. Although Maeve's departure was for her own good, it lacked the expected emotional depth. The prolonged anticipation for their relationship to develop became tiresome, and the series seemed to delay their connection unnecessarily.
I thought I would enjoy this season but it was kinda disappointing in my opinion. There is no spice between Maeve and Otis and the same situation makes their relation boring...
Yeap it really disappointed me !

Consistency in character arcs is crucial for viewers' engagement. I hope future seasons or episodes might address some of these concerns.
The worst thing is that this was the last season and they just disappointed us.
I've seen this season, we learn a lot from eric's hatred of each other and then their love.
