Based on the comic book series by Charles Forsman, "The End of the F...ing World" sees two 17-year-old outsiders, James and Alyssa, embark on a road trip to find her estranged father, who left home when she was just a child. James, who is convinced he's a psychopath, has decided it's time to graduate from killing animals to something bigger -- and he already has a target in mind. Alyssa, the embodiment of existential angst, feels like she doesn't fit in at her new school despite being quite popular. Together, they get caught up on a trail of violent events that grow increasingly more ominous as their quest progresses.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

What The End of the F***ing World's second season lacks in urgency it makes up for in character development, diving deep into the darkest creases of the leading pair's memories to emerge a darkly funny meditation on love and trauma.

Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe 11/22/2019
It has the same gonzo tone and darkly funny writing. Go to Full Review Hugo Rifkind The Times (UK) 11/08/2019
Altogether, it oozes "not for everyone"; although despite that, I think it might be. Go to Full Review Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone 11/06/2019
3/5
The new episodes share many of the original batch's most effective elements -- strong performances, deft retro soundtrack choices (leaning more on folk this time), a blend of humor and pathos -- without ever finding a reason to exist.

When I rate media I ask myself how well does this program succeed at doing what it set out to do. Looked at in that light I feel The End of The Fu***ing World season two is a near flawless masterpiece. Go to Full Review Alex Diedrick Uproxx 11/11/2021
It's bleakly funny but things take a more serious turn in season two, when Alyssa is left managing the aftermath of the pair's crime spree and a new psychopath enters the mix. Go to Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut 11/03/2020
3.5/5
The End of the ****ing World season 2 predictably doesn't have the same manic energy or sense of revelation as the first go-around, but it retains the pitch-black nihilism and expert situational humor - it might even be funnier Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Patrick S @PatrickStruik Dec 15 A second season was not necessary because i loved the sublime open ending of the first season. Nevertheless second season is recommended. See more Emrah G @Emrah Aug 13 Almost as good as Season 1. See more Pedro R Jun 11 Gostei mais da segunda temporada do que da primeira. Talvez por já ter mais afinidade com os personagens. Alyssa, com o seu olhar pregado no teto e sotaque mais brit English de sempre, é espetacular. See more Sara B @Sassypants25 Apr 18 James & Alyssa are back and we are dealing with the fall out of last season. There is so much healing that needs to happen & we go to some very dark places. Alex & Jessica are fantastic. They have such a natural chemistry and an ease with each other that it Is incredible to have so much that is said without you’ve been saying a word. The most unconventional love story, but we get a beautiful ending that gives a lot of hope and the promise of healing. See more Aydan A 01/29/2025 personally i didn't enjoy season 2 quite as much as i did season 1 BUT i absolutely loved bonnie's storyline and how the show wrapped up. See more Matthew S @stumpmtsr 01/08/2025 Season 2 had me rooting more and more for the odd couple. 2 seasons of this dark and witty series that showcased the tumultuous adventure of Alyssa and James wasn’t enough. Jessica and Alex has great Chemistry together. Jessica's acting was award winning. See more Read all reviews
