The series became a critical and commercial success for Netflix, with over 40 million viewers having streamed the first series after its debut on the streaming service.
Socially awkward teenager Otis Milburn is ambivalent about sex, despite, or perhaps because of, his mother being a sex therapist who is frank about all aspects of sexuality. After inadvertently assisting the school bully with his sexual performance anxiety, Otis sets up a sex advice business with Maeve—a confident but vulnerable classmate—to educate their fellow students on how to deal with their own sexual problems.
