'Sex Education' Season 2 wishlist: Eric and Adam are great, but we really need to see more of Anwar

Not only is Anwar an interesting character on his own, a potential relationship with Eric in season 2 of 'Sex Education' would have many layers to uncover

‘Sex Education’ premiered on Netflix Friday, January 11, and most of us are still talking about it. With a mere 8 episodes, the British comedy-drama managed to reel in thousands of fans worldwide who are all hoping for another season, which at this point is a safe bet. Well-rounded characters defying stereotypes, diversity not cheapened by tokenism, and teenage love stories untainted by the expectations set by Hollywood, are some of the things ‘Sex Education’ has going for itself.

With three gay characters who are all so different from each other, this British Netflix show provides for an authentic and holistic representation for the LGBT+ community. While Eric (Ncuti Gatwa) is optimistic, needy and looking forward to embracing the high school experience, Adam (Connor Swindells) is the closeted bully, who is in love with Eric.
