At least since the first teaser for Season 2, fans can hardly wait for Netflix to release the 8 new episodes of Heartstopper. Today, August 3, 2023, the time has finally come: The series that received the highest ratings from the Moviepilot community last year is back and is opening a new chapter in Alice Oseman’s comic book adaptation.
Long-awaited Netflix return: Heartstopper also convinces in season 2
Hardly any series conquered as many hearts in 2022 as Netflix’s British comic adaptation of a simple student love story: how Nick (Kit Connor) and Charlie (Joe Locke) slowly became closer in Heartstopper was realistic and romantic at the same time. In the editorial ranking at Moviepilot, Heartstopper also made it into the 2022 Top 10 of the series year.
The rave reviews for season 2 overturned and held the 100% rating at Rotten Tomatoes for a long time. There was the sequel with her “queer delight” from different sides than “Irresistibly Gentle Jewel” kudos for that “is taller but hasn’t lost his honesty and heart” have because “Not all schools have to be Euphoria or Sex Education”. Some even certified season 2 to outperform the previous season and one “triumphant development” to go through
What is Heartstopper Season 2 on Netflix about?
Season 2 puts the new relationship to the test as Nick has to decide how to communicate his love for Charlie to the rest of the world after he’s come out as a bisexual to friends and family. Things continue to crackle between Elle (Yasmin Finney) and Tao (William Gao), and Isaac (Tobie Donovan) also gets his own story. If one School trip to Paris as the romantic capital gets even more rolling?

Heartstopper Season 2: Charlie and Nick travel to Paris
Darcy (Kizzy Edgell) and Tara (Corinna Brown) are of course back as a lesbian power couple when it comes to France. Unfortunately, Ben (Sebastian Croft), who is repressing his own homosexuality, threatens to cause trouble for Nick and Charlie.
As Alice Oseman continued to adapt her own comics to the Netflix series as a series creator, Season 2 again breathes the spirit of the template. And who knows: Maybe Heartstopper will once again become one of the best series of the year in 2023. And the comforting thing after all the recent Netflix cancellations is: The 3rd season of Heartstopper has long been ordered.
