10 Best Sex Education Episodes

8. Season 1 - Episode 7

Sex Education
Netflix

Any great TV show about a high school has a prom episode, and Sex Education is no exception.

When Otis and Maeve agree to go at the behest of other people, they are shocked to find each other there and that's the moment where Jackson reveals that Otis was the one who gave him the information to entice Maeve. Angry and upset, she breaks up with Jackson and chastises Otis before leaving.

In the standard Ross & Rachel, Sam & Diane world of couples in shows like this, all of them must suffer a falling apart before getting back together, and that is where Sex Education just isn't original enough.

However, the best part of this episode isn't Otis's speech or Maeve's dress shopping scene. No, it's Adam and his father's physical altercation that is the most amazing to watch, as we see a relationship totally fall apart before our eyes. In that moment, you can't help feel for Adam and his situation with Headmaster Groff, as it is this core relationship that made Adam the way he is.

There is nothing that is good left in their bond and Adam just tells him that he hates him. It is powerful and evocative television.
