Additionally, there was Everwood, which told the story of a widower trying to find a new beginning with his two kids  One Tree Hill, which explored the nature of family through the relationships of Nathan and Lucas and their connections (or lack thereof) to their mothers, Karen and Deb, and their father, Dan and even Smallville, which despite its sci-fi elements, grounded all of its superhero action and otherworldly drama in Clark’s relationship with his parents, Jonathan and Martha. You, of course, had Gilmore Girls, which centered around the mother-daughter relationship of Lorelei and Rory. Look at the shows that populated The WB in the early 2000s.
#LIFE UNEXPECTED SEASON 3 SERIES#
In some way or another, these series would grounded in and focused on family. The WB, on the other hand, had a specific specialty for shows that it aired. UPN aired a limited mount of original series, from Everybody Hates Chris to Veronica Mars, and didn’t really a particular brand or audience it was going after.
Unfortunately, he's meant to be with someone else in Sex Education.Before The CW launched in the fall of 2006, there was UPN and The WB. Aside from feeling rejected, this might have also made it more difficult for Ruby as it double downs on the idea that Otis is really a good guy. While Otis didn't share her feelings about their relationship, he still did the right thing by coming clean about it. Instead, she chose to stay with Otis - until she learned that he doesn't feel the same way about her.
Ruby initially claimed that the only reason they continued seeing each other was because of their sexual chemistry, but as Moordale Secondary's most popular girl, she could've easily moved on with another guy. Granted that she tried changing his appearance and manners so he could fit in with the Untouchables, but when Otis would no longer put up with it, she considered his feelings and agreed to simply date him as he is. If Ruby wasn't genuinely developing feelings for Otis, it seems unlikely that she would have compromised to keep their relationship. Indeed, this may have been a process that actually started far before, during their interactions in Sex Education season 2. Otis made Ruby feel safe and comfortable, and allowing her to be herself in a way she never had before could have made her fall in love with him. He hung out at her house and mingled with her dad he even helped him get to bed. Even the Untouchables were unaware of the life that she lives at home as she opted to preserve the image of a rich and spoiled girl, seemingly being a bit embarrassed about her personal life. The question is, did Ruby really fall in love with Otis that easily? Based on the progression of their relationship in Sex Education, this is a very big possibility, as Otis was the first person to see the real her. This broke her spirit and confidence which led to them splitting up.

Their serious problem that resulted in the breakup came after they spent all day together and Otis learned more about his girlfriend's family. Their relationship began as secret and purely sexual - however, once their secret was revealed to the public, however, they decided to date openly. While the two had their initial issues in Sex Education season 3 with regard to how they treat each other at school - mainly because Ruby wanted Otis to fit in with her friends - they would eventually get past this. Otis didn't even tell Eric (Ncuti Gatwa) until school restarted. Some flashback scenes revealed that they first got together at a party, and since then, they agreed to continue seeing each other, but on the down-low. By the time Sex Education season 3 started, they were already hooking up. Nobody saw the aforementioned coupling coming - not even the pair. Warning! Spoilers ahead for Sex Education season 3.
