End Of The F***ing World series 2 spoiler-free review

Channel 4's bleak, bold and funny series returns in style.

Louisa Mellor, Den Of Geek, 4th November 2019

Was James (Alex Lawther) actually killed by police shooters in the series one finale, leaving Alyssa (Jessica Barden) to face justice alone? That's how Charles Forsman's original graphic novel ended, but since this show about two runaway teen psychos is back for more 90s indie flick-inspired mayhem, we're guessing screenwriter Charlie Covell has made some changes. Now their dark dalliance can continue in these short-but not-too-sweet episodes.

Why everyone should watch The End of the F***ing World

I had only intended to watch one episode of new comedy drama The End of the F***ing World on All4 but before I knew it I'd seen the entire series. I've been known to binge but never to this extent. I've never watched an entire series in one day. I felt an instant connection to the lead characters, which is a little worrying as one is a self proclaimed psycho and spends the first half of the series plotting the death of the other.

The End of the F***ing World review

It's so dark that you can barely make out the humour at all - and yet this adaptation of Charles Forsman's comic is totally convincing.
