The Inbetweeners show has always had a soficisticated charm surrounding it, its unapologetically British too. It thrives from awkward kids being put into awkward positions, most noticeably S2 Ep4 where they drive up to London. This show after all these years is still absolutely full of life and wonderful. It's an easy watch, it's very intreging. And I always enjoy watching it. So let's digest it, and see what's so good about it, in each specific season.
Season 1,
Season one is great, it kicks starts the boys adventures and wild rides through childhood/teenage years and shows them in school, struggling to fit in. What works here is the fact that it's so relatable, I remember my first time in Year 7, I was excited but nervous. And same with my College. So it relates in some way. The insults on Will and his constant comebacks never fails to amuse me, he's a clever nerd and is a goody two-shoes. Just like me. And he rearly swears. Simon had a crush, a long-lasting one, again we've all had one of those. And it continues throughout the siries and it does fit in with how close them both are, Family wise. Carly. Jay is the lier of the group and always tries to act cool, only to be more impressive then he actually is. Which is honestly Hillarious. Neil is a total idiot and doesn't understand sarcasm, but he seems to like girls, and more..., again somewhat relatable. I'd say the best episode is Thorpe Park. That was funny and it was well paced. They also had some great moments collectively. I wish Season 1 was funnier though.
Season 2,
My favourite part of Season 2 is the work experience the boys had to over come. And Season 2 is still relateable In that sense, the characters are put in even more embarrassing situations and even WORSE scenarios then before. It's the perfect siries. The best episode is definitely the London one. "BUS W*****S" is honestly so funny and the "ooh Friends" is also Hillarious. And probably Neil's most insane lines of dialogue ever. And Jay's, and that's saying something. And this is all throughout Season 2 which makes it even worse. Season 2 had mostly perfect paced episodes. Although I wish they weren't so restricted in length, I wish they were a bit longer, and the characters were slightly more developed. But the main protagonists are fun and interesting enough, and very relatable so you can reason with them.
Season 3,
The cast remain to have great growth together. They seem to understand each other. And this is the last season unfortunately for us. The Chemistry between the boys Is great and they make each episode better. The Camping trip is my favourite episode because there all together and pranking one another's relatives. And Simon struggling with the fact he has to move. Whilst, Carly is still around, and still his undenying crush. And this season is not only funny, but sad and hard felt especially when the boys only had this as there last season. But all 18 Episodes have charming characters, a likeable and relateable protagonist in Will, and awkward personas when involving girls with them. It was intreging and it didn't take my long to finish a full re-run of the show, yes guilty as sin!
So would I recommend The Inbetweeners?,
After all these years, yes. But be careful as there's a lot of vulgar scenes and swear words, 8/10.
