NETFLIX viewers have demanded a comedy dubbed ‘better than Sex Education’ be renewed for another season.
The show in question is Heartbreak High and it follows students and teachers at the fictitious Hartley High in Australia as they navigate racial tensions.
The show also explores high school romances and teen angst and has won an International Emmy Award.
Viewers are pleading for the series to be renewed for season three after being wowed by the second season.
Among the main characters are Amerie Wadia, an Indian-Australian girl who becomes a social pariah, as well as Darren Rivers, who is queer and non-binary.

After an incident involving graffiti at school, several students are forced to attend a sexual education course called Sexual Literacy Tutorial.
Amerie, who was partly responsible for the graffiti, took the fall for her co-conspirator Harper McLean.
Fans of the show have liked what they’ve seen so far, begging bosses to renew Heartbreak High for a third season.
Addressing Netflix on X (formerly Twitter), one keen viewer wrote: “Can you guys please renew Heartbreak High, I won’t be able to sleep peacefully until you do.”
Another penned: “Heartbreak High is what Never Have I Ever and Sex Education wanted to be.”
A third fan added: “We ready for the heartbreak high season 3 announcement whenever y’all ready.”
Heartbreak High is a soft-reboot of an earlier show of the same name, which aired between 1994 to 1999 for seven series.
The first Heartbreak High was itself a spin-off of 1993 feature film The Heartbreak Kid, which featured multiple cast members of the TV series.
Like its successor, the show followed the lives of students and staff at a multi-cultural high school.
BBC2 part-funded the series from 1996 and some episodes aired in the UK ahead of their Australian release.
