Hmm... I just can't agree with this one. I don't remember my reaction to the pilot of Sex Education specifically, but I remember falling for it fast. And, even now, reading the summary... hilarious. I love it. A teenage boy who can't masturbate? Butter. Awkward encounter with his mom? Butter. Hard-ass teenage girl who has to take care of herself (and she's got an alt style)? My most favorite of all butter.
I think it just shows how much people have different taste... and that cultural differences matter. Sex Education is very British. I don't think British people are going to find it odd the way Americans do. But the US isn't one place. It's a lot of smaller places with different POVs and as a suburban girl from California you couldn't pay me to watch Virgin River.
I love that you outlined all that Virgin River butter without even mentioning THE butter - the Small town grumpy bartender butter aka THE JACK BUTTER. But you're right. It was deliciously done (and very similar to the opening of the first book). We lapped it up during lockdown.
