Movie #3132 ........................."Sex Education" Season 4, Finale (Netflix)

 Movie #3132 "Sex Education" Season 4, finale (netflix)  We have enjoyed this show throughout the 4 seasons, and we were sorry to see this one end, but we also realize that the show was full of young , talented and vibrant young actors who have many more things to do and say with their work.  What a diverse cast --- one we weren't used to seeing when it first started.  It took place in a high school the first 2 seasons, and then to college for the last two.  The cast changed just a little from one year to the next, so there was a staple of young actors that really ran the show, except for one very strong adult actor, Otis's mom, played by the always competent Gillian Anderson (from X-files and the Crown).  This was a British show with bawdy and sometimes silly comedy, that was never afraid to tackle intimate sex that was running rampant in the kids' teen and  college ages.  So this show was not for everyone --- and the 4th season has a death the kids were dealing with, that made the show a tad darker than it usually is, but what it most competently did is tackle the subjects that are oftentimes ignored between parents and their kids, or amongst their kids.....all the highs and lows of first falling in love, dealing with sexual problems as they come about, breakups and startups  in relationships, getting along with siblings, getting along with exes, dealing with bullying by parents and other teens..... all the mucky subjects that those teen years bring and the show  tackled them so well.  There's much written if you google their final show because they decided to handle the love story between Maeve and Otis contrary to what most people wanted --- but it is done  so very delicately and authentically that I found it quite acceptable.  A big thanks to the creators of this show, in its quality and courage to tackle all of these hard topics that teens go through, esp. on the subject of sex.  I would give this season 4.5 out of 5, and it ended up to be my second favorite, just behind the 1st season.
