Meet Otis Milburn (Asa Butterfield) – an inexperienced, socially awkward high school student who lives with his mother, a sex therapist. Surrounded by manuals, videos and tediously open conversations about sex, Otis is a reluctant expert on the subject. When his home life is revealed at school, Otis realizes that he can use his specialist knowledge to gain status. He teams up with Maeve, a whip-smart bad-girl, and together they set up an underground sex therapy clinic to deal with their fellow students’ weird and wonderful problems. Through his analysis of teenage sexuality, Otis realises he may need some therapy of his own. (Netflix)

Sex Education (2019)
Gillian Anderson reigns supreme in this series, though she's certainly not the main character – but that doesn't mean the others aren't interesting. Quite the contrary. The main character and all those who revolve around him like some kind of solar system are great, and it's funny that although most of them fall into previously seen and well-known character boxes, they somehow evolve within those boxes as well, climbing out of them and back in again... The creators also have a pretty decent supply of surprises up their sleeves (like the ending), so I've easily enjoyed absolutely every episode and look forward to the second season.
