- TriviaSera Gamble and Greg Berlanti initially pitched the series to Netflix but were turned down. Lifetime picked up the show for the first season but let it go, leaving the door open for Netflix to step in and acquire the series for its ongoing seasons. Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos admitted that they missed a trick by not optioning the series in the first place, as it has subsequently proved to be one of the platform's biggest hits.
- GoofsNo self respecting bookbinder would use a heavy mallet to round a spine. Anyone who has ever repaired or bound a book of this caliber would use a rounding hammer, specifically designed for such a purpose.
- Quotes
Joe Goldberg: All books add up to one essential truth, which is, if your IQ is above a certain number, life is pretty much unbearable. And the number is not even that high.
Featured review
An episode full of good, very good, mysterious, thrilling events.
You Season 1 Episode 1
Review : In reviewing this episode, I must say that from the beginning to the end of this episode is very mysterious and full of thrills. The reason why this episode is called mysterious is because there are so many moments in this episode where there is a lot of mystery in the place. The thrill is in every step of this episode. All in all, the first episode of the first season of this web series is very good.
Acting : The first episode has seen a lot of actors-actresses acting, one thing I have seen from their performances is that there is a truth hidden in their acting. Every actor-actress has judged enough with her character and has performed her acting very perfectly.
Direction : The director has read well enough in his role. He has done well enough with every actor-actress. I would like to personally thank the director for this episode because he has worked hard enough and gifted us with making a beautiful episode.
Story and Dialogue : Speaking of the story of the episode, it must be said that the story is very thrilling and very good. The storytellers of this episode have written the story of this episode with enough thrilling elements. There is a thrill in the story of this episode, there is a thrill of finding something new, there is a thrill of doing something for yourself, there is a thrill of falling in love at the first sight. Talking about the dialogue behind this, it must be said that a lot of deep, thrilling and romantic dialogue has been used in this episode. I would like to thank the storytellers and dialogue writers very much for their wonderful work.
Soundtrack and Background score : No soundtrack was used in this episode. Inside this enough attention has been paid to the background score. Background scores have been used to suit every situation. I have no hesitation in saying that extremely high quality and intense background scores have been used in this episode.
Cinematography and Editing : The cinematography in this episode is awesome, the way the actors-actresses are captured by the expression camera is really admirable. The team of editors has also done a good enough job and gifted us an episode so beautiful.
Other Departments : Speaking of lighting, the lighting is beautifully arranged in every scene, I have not seen any scene where the expressions of actors and actresses are not seen for the wrong lighting. Shot in some pretty good locations, which made the first episode of the first season of this web series good enough.
Overall Episode : Judging by all the aspects, I gave the first episode of the first season of the You Web series to nine stars out of ten stars.
Thanks so much for reading my review.
