The third season of You has reached new heights. It's a cult show that literally everyone is talking about. The same month as the ten episode third season landed the show was green lit for what looks like a very different season four. If you saw episode ten of season three, you know what I mean.
Season three picks off with Joe Goldberg's & Love, with child, heading to the fictitious Californian suburb of Madre Linda.
Starring Penn Badgley, Victoria Pedretti, and Saffron Burrows, Shalita Grant, Travis Van Winkle, Dylan Arnold, Tati Gabrielle & Michaela McManus who portrays Joe's new neighbour, shown at end of the second season. That was a tiny cliffhanger, which gets resolved real fast in the third season.
In the third season, Joe and Love are married and raising their newborn son, Henry.
As their relationship dynamic takes a new turn, Joe continues to repeat the cycle of obsession with a burgeoning interest in Natalie Engler, the next door neighbor.
This time, Love flips the script to ensure that her dream of having the perfect family will not be torn away so easily by Joe's compulsive actions.
However, after Love takes care of the Natalie problem, Joe turns his obsession to Marienne, a librarian who shares a troubled childhood in the foster system. Further complicating Love and Joe's relationship, Natalie's stepson Theo falls head over heels for Love.
There is a lot to unpack after the batshit crazy third season, however a hard reset presents itself at the end of season three as we see a new location for Joe. Small spoiler alert.
I really enjoyed the third season. Whilst there was almost a two year break for the season, I got right into this over the few weeks it took for me to smash out.
The season's ten episodes were a very easy watch. Joe and Love have one hell of a relationship whilst some of the new players really ramp things up this season.
Penn Badgley really is awesome as Joe, so if you need a series to hook into across all this wet late Spring weather, there is a reason why people like You. It's addictive, it's camp, it's damn fine. Stream it now on Netflix.
