Heartstopper season 2 review: Queer teen love story has a lot to love, but lacks bite
Hindustan TimesThe first season of Netflix's Heartstopper was a rich and tender explosion: that will-he, won't-he feeling of queer adolescence. With season 2, creator Alice Oseman takes her characters further ahead, into doubtful and uncharted territories of queer acceptance and coming out- but without really pushing the buttons. Nick and Charlie are together now Season 2 of Heartstopper, directed by Euros Lyn, starts off exactly, where season 1 ended. When it all aligns together- in an impeccably directed dinner scene, Heartstopper Season 2 earns its context. This also brings me to position the impact of a show like Heartstopper season 2 in the current framework of this country, where the very conversation around same-sex relationships has reached a strategic crisis.
