![]() ![]() ![]() It’s surprising that in an entertainment era dominated by eat the rich narratives, the show’s frank murder of people with multiple houses and servants still manages to come off as tedious. The new friend group, while heavily accented and equally naughty, are caricature to the point of comedy, and also decidedly uninteresting. ![]() Joe is in his head, and putting him in a well-fitting houndstooth blazer does little to keep the story fresh. Part 1 of You proved this, its hour-long episodes dragging along. But in the modern age of television, a sexy lead and an ever increasing body count still isn’t enough to keep eyes glued to the screen. As a show that was canceled over lack of viewership on Lifetime, it’s a testament to Badgley’s commitment to the bit and showrunner Sera Gamble’s inventiveness that the series has so deftly maneuvered itself from a creepy action show to a camp drama classic. But it gives its actors the freedom to nail their performances, a recipe that has usually worked in its favor. The show is light on plot and more a mishmash of warring desires and character studies in narcissism. It doesn’t stay that way for long.īy all accounts, You should be a flop. Part 1 of the series ends on a small cliffhanger, with Joe on an unfamiliar mission as the good guy, desperate to stop “Eat The Rich” serial killer and mayoral candidate Rhys Montrose. But really, it’s not his fault that his new friends start turning up dead one by one. Yes, his stalking tendencies are still there, and quickly put to use to peep on his neighbor Kate Galvin ( Charlotte Ritchie). This time, Joe is English Professor Jonathan Moore, who has accidentally befriended a group of privileged London influencers, socialites, and nepo babies. This same routine was once again present in the first part of You’s fourth season, which was released on Feb 9. ![]() But he’s hot, so not only does he get away, but the end of each season has seen him successfully survive and remerge in another unsuspecting community ripe for the taking. Joe ( Penn Badgley) is an angst-ridden killer who just can’t stop meeting women and then stalking, trapping, and eventually murdering them. You, Netflix’s beloved murder-comedy staple, follows a simple pattern for viewers to latch on to. By this point, it’s pretty clear Joe Goldberg is the problem. Badgely has since confirmed this - as has the trailer - and Badgely also told Entertainment Tonight: "There's also some other familiar faces which I think I can. There is also speculation that Marienne was on a moped behind Joe in the final scenes of Season 3, suggesting she would be making an appearance in Season 4. come together and talk about for hours and hours and hours between snacks." And even his exact plan of when and if he would return for his son is something that we will. Gamble added: "I think it will shape him from this moment forward. Showrunner Sera Gamble told E News: "That's going to be an ongoing conversation, because no, you can't pretend something that huge about a character didn't happen." It's also worth remembering that Joe left his son Henry at the end of Season 3 - as we briefly mentioned - so there is a chance he will return to Madra Linda at some point. In other news, you could be forgiven to assume that Love Quinn is dead - given Joe blew her and the house up at the end of Season 3 - though it wouldn't be the first time an ex returns from the dead in You if she reappears in Season 4. ![]()
