You

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.

Great series, reminding me of the iconic "Dexter".

Acting is top notch, specially from Penn Badgley, completely unknown to me, but capable of portraying the complex, lethal and sensitive character of Joe.

Victoria Pedretti on seasons 2 and 3 was just perfect. Quite a rollercoaster of great acting here.

All 3 seasons delivered, with enough twists and last episode chaotic situations, that left me thinking "how the hell he's he going to come out of this" on the last episodes.

I was very sceptic at first, specially due to some avoidable and quite dumb out of place pseudo-erotic mb scenes, but I kept the faith and was not disappointed.

Strong points: the twists, chaotic situations, unpredictable moves and pace, all with wonderful acting through and through.

Weaker points: imbecile erotic out of place moments (thankfully not many), terrible soundtrack that does not amaze or stay in the head (sorry) and dumb moves from Joe (and not only): not using gloves, using the same hat to hide himself (ala Clark Kent with his eyeglasses) and less attention to detail when we know he could be caught by doing the same mistakes over and over again.

But... it's a great series nonetheless. If you loved "Dexter", it's not on par, but delivers, in a more "modern", less careful way and sometimes even a bit more chaotic in the situations where Joe puts himself on.

Season 1 great, Season 2 good, Season 3 great again (don't understand the hate, really).

You is a psychological drama that feels politically correct. It follows the life of a serial killer and ex bookkeeper "Joe Goldberg".

Penn Badgley was casted as Joe which I think was a perfect casting decision. Badgley makes Joe seem Sinister and imperfect, which is exactly what makes the show so intriguing.

The way the show alters by Joe's thoughts is what keeps it so raw, if it was narrated from a third person perspective, I think the show would be boring but since we are in the eyes of a serial killer, we gain interest in it.

The show also has the correct amount of violence and narration. Action isn't always occurring, which is perfect due to suspense being key in a thriller like this.

The writing is also formed in a way which makes you sometimes side with Joe, which is why Joe is such an important and interesting character.

The show isn't perfect though, there's a lot of "cheesy" aspects to the show which make it seem unrealistic despite realism being the intention.

The directors make Joe seem like the sane one throughout the seasons, which especially with his role, is not what should happen.

A lot of the cast don't get as much air time as they deserve, which is a bummer since many of them are talented actors.

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!

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!.
