After shocking the world with their Stranger Things ship

“Platonic soulmates”- Netflix Serves Friendship Goals With This Underrated ‘Sex Education’ Duo

In an era filled with hookups and casual relationships, Netflix has given its
audience a friendship like no other in the latest season of Sex Education
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/sex-education/]. While most people would think it
was the friendship between Eric and Otis, this season had another duo making
their way to the limelight. From being there through rather difficult times to
even pointing out when there might be something odd about a new love interest,
the streaming giant managed to depict their “platonic” relationship
effortlessly.

Since the fourth season aired last month, fans have been entranced with the duo
and their storylines. But now Netflix decided to tell fans what they actually
think of the duo.


NETFLIX SHARES THE FAN SENTIMENT

Following Netflix’s recent Stranger Things ship
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-after-a-post-about-real-love-netflix-garners-a-mixed-reaction-for-its-stranger-things-ship/],
the streaming giant has done it again. Recently, Netflix’s Sex Education page
posted a picture of two Sex Education characters, Vivienne and Jackson, with the
caption, “platonic soulmates.” Though they were not initially friends in the
earlier seasons, the fourth season focused on the growth of both characters. And
even brought them closer together after every outrageous event that unfolded.
From a cancer scare to a toxic boyfriend and more, the duo learned to navigate
through life with each other’s help.

While some scenes had viewers wondering if the friendship would last, the duo
proved to make their way out of any bad situation together. But for a while
there, no one knew what would happen when Beau, Viv’s boyfriend, started acting
insecure because of their friendship. Thankfully, they made it through to the
other side and had the entire audience wanting to scream in happiness.

Netflix, however, may have just added fuel to the fire with their latest post
and left the internet divided. In fact, while the world might love Jackson and
Vivienne’s friendship, there are some who wish it would grow into something
else.


SEX EDUCATION FANS DIVIDED OVER NETFLIX’S CHOICE

Most Sex Education fans would wholeheartedly agree that the Viv and Jackson duo
stole hearts. However, there are a few people who think otherwise. Though the
duo proved time and again that they were just best friends, some viewers hoped
to see them together. But with Netflix’s latest platonic ship, a few hearts have
been breaking all over social media.

Meanwhile, other fans could only focus on how much they loved the friendship
that the two shared on screen.

While the internet may be divided on how to feel about this sudden pick, fans
will have to wait for the 5th season to watch how their friendship continues to
grow. However, there is no update on what the next season holds and when fans
can expect it to come out.

After shocking the world with their Stranger Things ship, Netflix has now picked their favorite platonic duo from the Sex Education series.

Prathika Prashant is a Hollywood and Music News writer at Netflix Junkie. She is an expert in everything Kanye West, from his outings to releases. These comprise a large chunk of her 600+ NJ articles. With extensive coverage of music entities like West and Taylor Swift, this journalism graduate is working her way towards bagging an interview with Nicki Minaj. When she is not covering Ye’s latest album drop updates, Prashant has her nose stuck in a murder mystery book or true crime documentaries.
