Why Everyone Is Freaking Out Over The Sex Education Season 3 Trailer

This was... unexpected. - by Catie Powers
  • 08 Sep 2021

Sex Education season three is hitting screens next Friday. This is not a drill 🚨 🚨 🚨!!

Netflix has finally dropped a trailer and there is *a lot* to unpack. But fans were pretty taken by one thing in particular.

WATCH: Sex Education | Season 3 | Official trailer

Ahh Sex Education, it's everybody's favourite shameless teen comedy-drama, and it's back baby!

And not a moment too soon, we've absolutely wrung the Netflix sponge dry of content lately, with Addison Rae's He's All That being our latest victim.

So when the SE trailer dropped today, we simultaneously dropped everything we were doing to watch it. Guys, so much is happening.

Sex Education season three is coming and not a moment too soon.

Netflix

Aimee has a goat. Otis has a moustache. Maeve and Otis are seemingly not talking.

Moordale has been dubbed the "sex school" and has a new Head Teacher.

Oh, and the guy who plays Lucius Malfoy (Jason Isaacs) has joined the cast?? Clearly he needed a new gig after Voldemort's downfall.

But there was a particular part of the trailer that really got Twitter talking.

OK power couple??

Netflix

It was all but a one second clip of Otis and Ruby holding hands and taking off their sunglasses, but Twitter went wild anticipating a new couple.

kyrs on Twitter: "otis and ruby holding hands!!! EVERYBODY MOVED pic.twitter.com/o664g70Ls0 / Twitter"
🤍 on Twitter: "RUBY AND OTIS MIGHT BE DATING THIS SEASON #sexeducation pic.twitter.com/U02DIQ91dj / Twitter"
kashm on Twitter: "I luv Otis nd but Otis ndMaeve since Ruby look soSeason 1 fuckin cool together🥺#SexEducation pic.twitter.com/rIVrPekPRh / Twitter"

If we remember from last season, Otis lost his virginity (though he would tell you that's a social construct) to Ruby at a party. And clearly many fans are well on board the Rotis train.

Buuuuut, not all. Because the trailer also gave us a glimpse of Otis and Maeve gazing into each other's eyes.

If they kiss, it better be in better lighting 😤.

Naturally, this also set Twitter off, with many fans having been eagerly awaiting the characters to get together since the show began.

m on Twitter: "crying and screaming maeve and otis rain kiss pic.twitter.com/YxckIPo1vr / Twitter"
caitlin⁷ on Twitter: "me @ netflix if otis and maeve dont get together pic.twitter.com/N0eKyostX0 / Twitter"
Sara 🤍 on Twitter: "OTIS AND MAEVE SEASON 3 ENDGAME & RAINKISS HERE WE GOOOO pic.twitter.com/OJX4lfFI9N / Twitter"

Hmmm.. will Team Rotis or Motis prevail? Or perhaps neither?

We guess we'll have to wait and see. Next Friday can't come soon enough.
