Airing 17th of January there’s no better way to start the next decade with a brand-new season of the wildly popular Netflix Original, Sex Education. Starring Asa Butterfield, Emma Mackey, and Ncuti Gatwa to name a few centers around the students of Moordale, specifically Otis (Asa) and Maeve (Emma) who set up a student sex clinic to help the other students. The show covers various serious points like sexuality and abortion in respectful ways while still being fun and light-hearted. The diverse range of characters means that there will definitely be at least one you can relate to especially with more coming in the next season. Since airing all episodes in January of this year, people have been desperate for more, so thankfully not much longer to wait!
Arguably the biggest TV show, ever, it’s not surprising that spin-offs were coming from the fantasy juggernaut Game of Thrones. While the final few seasons left a lot to be desired, especially season 8 there are still a lot more stories to tell about the land of Westeros. The first of these shows are going to be set in the age of the first men and show how the Night King came to be. It was rumored to be titled “Bloodmoon” and starring Naomi Watts. However, this show sadly got cancelled but from the ashes, quite literally, came to a new spin-off based on the dragons themselves, House Targaryen. Based around the initial rise to power and history of the Targaryens it looks like this spins off will give us more dragons and more interesting characters to fall in love with, or maybe loathe entirely.
