Netflix's Heartstopper is known for its feel-good queer vibes, but the series would benefit from exploring its heavier themes more thoroughly:
—an adaptation of the graphic novel series from creator Alice Oseman, who is also the sole writer for the show. Alongside Charlie and Nick, their best friends Tao , Elle , Tara , Darcy , and Isaac are each discovering their own identities. The series is surprisingly well done, and those responsible for creating it are obviously very aware of the importance of telling these stories in an honorable and respectful manner.
Nick’s coming out journey is the perfect example of the series’ potential. In the beloved first season, we watched this charming exploration of Nick discovering his bisexuality amidst his growing romantic feelings for Charlie, causing him to question himself at every turn. By season’s end, after accepting his identity and making things official with Charlie, Nick has one of television’s most touching and comforting coming-out scenes with his mother, Sarah .
It’s particularly noticeable in the second season, but not solely regarding Charlie and Nick’s relationship. As we learned when the series began, Charlie and Elle were bullied rather relentlessly before the events of the pilot unfolded for their identities. However, the series refuses to unpack what exactly this “bullying” entailed.
