With a trip to Paris and a prom, Season 2 is all that you could hope for.

This review was written during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labor of the writers and actors currently on strike, the series being covered here wouldn't exist.Last summer, audiences got a sweet, feel-good queer romance in Heartstopper, the story of recently outed teenager Charlie who enters secondary school — that's high school, for us Americans — and meets rugby player Nick , developing a friendship that quickly morphs into a romance.

While Charlie is dealing with his own challenges, Nick is struggling with the coming out part. Several times, he says he's going to come out to his friends, but he can't seem to work up the nerve to actually do it. This leads to a heart-to-heart with Charlie in Episode 3, where he says that people think you should automatically come out to your family and friends as soon as you know, but that doesn't mean you have to.

And then there's Isaac , the uncoupled member of the friend group who's usually got his nose stuck in a book. Isaac gets far more screen time in Season 2, as he, too, struggles with his sexuality. The school's only other out gay guy besides Charlie, James , develops a crush on Isaac, but Isaac isn't sure he can reciprocate those feelings. He likes James, sure, but he's not sure if he likes him in that way.

Paris and the Prom Feature Prominently in 'Heartstopper' Season 2 Season 2's big events are the school trip to Paris and the prom. The trip to Paris covers three episodes and sees the many different romantic relationships blossom over the episodes' arcs. One relationship that only happened sort of in passing in Season 1 continues to play out between Elle's classmates, Tara and Darcy .
