Oseman also wrote all the episodes of the Netflix show. 'Heartstopper' is based on the web comic by Alice Oseman of the same name, which was collected into a series graphic novels. It's a gorgeous, funny, lovely rom-com series that spotlights LGBTQ+ teens in an authentic way. Over the course of the series, I didn't just fall in love with Charlie and Nick, but also with the friends and world around them. He knows better than to crush on a straight boy, but finds himself falling for rugby star Nick Nelson (Kit Connor).
Set in southeast England, the show follows Charlie (Joe Locke), a high school student who recently came out - or, more accurately, was forced out - as gay. On April 22, Netflix released all eight episodes of 'Heartstopper,' a new young adult romantic comedy series.
