    Summary

    Reviewers say 'You' is lauded for its suspenseful plot and psychological intrigue, especially in the first two seasons. The show's exploration of obsession and love is often highlighted. However, later seasons face criticism for becoming convoluted and politically charged, with some finding the deviation from the original premise disappointing. Character development and plot consistency are points of contention. Despite mixed reviews, Penn Badgley's performance remains a consistent highlight.

    Season 2 is quite good

    Season 1 was okay, entertainable. Didn't like Beck at all though.

    Season 2 is more mature and Love is a great character (great actress). The season is more thrilling and the story isn't that cheesy. Really enjoyed it!

    A great show with an incredibly underwhelming ending

    The show started to go off the rails after season 2, but it was all still enjoyable due to the consistently amazing performance of Penn Badgley . He is on his A-game again in season 5, but held back by an inconsistent script leading to many out of character moments for Joe. The "always one step ahead" trait of his character is here one episode, then gone the next ,which leads into the events of the final episode where us the viewers can see the twist coming miles before.

    Season 5 started off with a good premise with a few twists ,that will be predictable to many, but were still entertaining to watch. Around the midpoint it started to lose its footing but came back with a great episode 8 and 9, which should have been the finale. Instead Episode 10 took a different direction with a narrative switch which didn't feel deserved, and multiple retcons that felt cheap. While it doesn't ruin the whole series like other shows final seasons have , it's sad to see it go out on such a low note, with so much wasted potential and storylines still left unfinished. A few series characters are brought back but add virtually nothing to the story and are mostly used as nostalgia bait, contributing to the feeling of this season being rushed. The best way I can summarise season 5 is that it's a good season (with many high points) but a very bad final season, lacking the finality this show deserved.

    Goodbye, you.

    Exciting Thriller!

    You was so much better than I thought it was going to be. I know it's been hyped up ever since the first season and has gotten good ratings and reviews from nearly everyone but I still didn't think I was going to like it. I was made to watch the first season and loved it. After that I binged the rest of the seasons on my own in record time. I'm not saying it's my favorite show or even close to that but it's one of the most surprising shows I've seen. It was originally suppose to be a miniseries but is such a popular show they keep renewing it. Season 4 drops early 2023. Penn Badgley does such a great job with this character, he's very believable in being a lovable psychopath.

    Used to love it

    First 3 seasons were amazing. I loved it. S4 is just so boring. I really want to like it but all the characters are so unlikeable and the storyline is awful. Kate as the love interest?? . I just didn't get it. To go from the other women he was obsessed with to her makes no sense what so ever!. She had no redeeming qualities at all and had the personality of a mop.

    Im Only on episode 6 and and would really love to finish what I started but I find myself drifting off or looking at my Phone and that's when I know it's lost on me.

    I hope there is a s5 and it's back in the USA and has more interesting characters because this is utter gash!.

    Oddly Uncomfortable

    I watched this without expectation. I hadn't heard of the book. I hadn't seen any previews or descriptions. What i found was a pleasantly dark show. It's uncomfortable and unpredictable and has what is hopefully an amazing story to tell from a unique perspective.

    We're put into the head of a stalker who seems to be a hair's width away from violence. The tension is held well.

    But what REALLY made it feel uncomfortable for me was a rather odd choice from the network. Swearing is censored out. There are these conspicuous blanks in the dialogue. It had me obsessing. When you've got a show this dark, who the hell do they think they're going to offend with a little swearing? Are they expecting kids to be up watching it? It's content is far more offensive than swearing could ever be.

    Apart from that one VERY annoying point, it's a brilliantly put together show. I'm looking forward to watching more (though I'll probably find myself swearing at the TV about the missing dialogue).

    • Trivia
      Penn Badgley almost turned down the role of Joe as he feared that the show would romanticize toxic behavior such as stalking. He was convinced after producers told him that that was the exact reason why he was right for the role- he would approach the show and part in a way that would ensure that Joe is clearly the villain of the story.
    • Goofs
      As a lover of books, especially rare/antiques, Joe would know better than to fold back the covers of paperback books. It puts strain on the spine.
