    As always, it is defiantly tasteless (one thorny “dilemma” is resolved by a character’s suicide, and there is a romantic subplot involving a teenager and an older woman), but in turning up the mockery of “the obscene one per cent-er bubble” that Joe and Love now inhabit, it at least finds more space to explore its better themes.

    “You” remains discursively watchable for its mercenary willingness to plow through story and lard on details in setting. But in pushing not just to humanize but vindicate a character whose monstrousness was his whole point, “You” has lost the plot.

    Still quite a melodramatic watch but I won't deny that You does just enough in the end to make the conclusion feel good. Basically, theStill quite a melodramatic watch but I won't deny that You does just enough in the end to make the conclusion feel good. Basically, the writing and plot is good on a macro level but poor in terms of belieavability in specific scenes. The acting remains good although I'm not such a huge fan of the performances in the flashbacks. I hope they end the show soon though, could get a little repetitive as time goes on, like how many times can Joe reset his life?? Full Review »

Some interesting twist and turns but a lot of give me a break type moments as well. It isn't as good as the first season was, but it isn't the worst thing out right now. If you liked the earlier seasons then check it out. If you felt kinda meh about earlier seasons then I don't think this season is going to change your mind. Full Review »

But the aforementioned isn't enough to excuse the bland yellowed cinematography or the cyclical storylines. All deaths felt predictable and unnecessary. The urgency of the 1st 2 seasons where it would feel difficult watching a good character trapped in their glass cage is gone. You feel disconnected to their plight. Even the body clean ups are too easy. Gone is the anxiety of a injured Joe pissing in a jar or a frightened joe with a missing finger, nope niw it's just black plastic bags and bad narration's. It's jarring. And the pacing is very heavy handed compared to previous seasons. Full Review »
