Netflix to bring back dark comedy which will ‘ruin your life’

The British show hasn’t been on TV in five years

By Jess Battison

Originally premiering in 2017, the British black comedy-drama had just two seasons and was distributed internationally by Netflix. The End of the F***ing World ran until 2019 and followed 17-year-old James who is ‘pretty sure he is a psychopath’ and Alyssa, also 17, the ‘cool and moody new girl and school’. Connecting, she persuades him ‘to embark on a road trip in search of her real father’.

Starring Alex Lawther and Jessica Barden, the series is based on Charles Forsman’s mini-comics which were collected into a book in 2013. Charlie Covell then wrote the TV series following a ‘lost’ short film in 2014.

The show has an impressive 94 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes’ Tomatometer with a decent 92 percent average audience score to match.

One user wrote: “The end of the f***ing world is kinda the best series I’ve ever watched tbh.”

Another said: “You should watch end of the f***ing world, it’s on Netflix and WILL RUIN UR LIFE /POS.”

You can watch both seasons of The End of the F***ing World on Netflix.

It’s been two years since the premiere of the British cult classic, but fans don’t have to wait much longer for answers about that notorious cliffhanger.

It’s been over two years since The End of the F***ing World premiered to rapturous reviews, and fans have eagerly awaited the aftermath of the series’ shocking finale. There’s been much debate about the need or desire for a second season of the show, which so far has been about two English teen runaways who wind up on the run. Arguments against its continuation often invoke the finality of its source material (a graphic novel of the same name by Charles Forman), but writer Charlie Covell has prepared eight more episodes that are sure to surprise. The tone of the show seems much different than it was in 2017, but we’ll have to wait until it premieres on November 4th to know for certain if that’s truly the case.

The End of the F***ing World returns 

A quick recap of The End of the F***ing World, please?

Teen runaways embark on darkly comic road trip. The debut series ended on a cliff-hanger with self-diagnosed psychopath James (Alex Lawther) running along a beach as a gunshot rings out.

When the show returns, two years have passed and Alyssa (Jessica Barden) is still dealing with the fallout.

As for James’s fate?

Dead. Prison. Still running on the beach like a scene from Chariots of Fire. We just don’t know.

What do we know?

There are some new faces. Naomi Ackie plays Bonnie, a formidable sounding character who is described as “an outsider with a troubled past and a mysterious connection to Alyssa”. Not to forget Tim Key as motel owner Gus.

Gulp. This won’t end well.

That’s what I said about Brexit [ . . . ]

The cast member that is missing is James who is played by Alex Lawther. His fate is unknown at the end of the season one he was shot by someone which means he might be dead or in person.

Also, during an interview Lawther in which he was asked how he would like to see season two start, joking: “[Jessica] was saying how she would like the second series to start with a musical on the beach – taking a role in a musical version of The End of the F***ing World, which I would be completely up for!
