You

This is a "Should I?" or "Should I not?" kind of a series. From the pilot, we know the protagonist is definitely sociopathic, maybe even psychopathic. Is this an anti-hero we can get behind? But, there is just something about it that makes you want to watch one more episode... and then you find the first season is over! This is well written, well performed, addictive and, well, disturbing. I give the series an 8 (addictive) out of 10. {Dramatic Crime 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.

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).

You is every bit as good as people have said it is and is pretty addicting once you start it. I've been putting off watching this since it first came out but finally found the time and now I'm mad I waited so long. For some reason I thought this was a show who's key demo was women. I was wrong. The thing that surprised me the most was how much humor is in it. It made me laugh a life more than I expected. Now, people saying that this isn't as good as Dexter are absolutely right (not much is), it isn't, but it definitely holds up on its own and thought it was overall a pretty good show. Penn Badgley does a fantastic job as the lead and Elizabeth Lail and Victoria Pedretti are both great in their roles as well. Now that I started it I can't wait for more seasons to come!

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.
