YOU
Netflix’s YOU (trailer here) is back and better than ever! Season 3 takes murderous newlyweds (and new parents) Joe and Love to an idyllic Northern California suburb. They try to adapt to their surroundings and embrace the mundanity of suburban life, but of course, ultimately struggle to break free of their toxic tendencies. This season delves deeper into the lead characters’ motives while elevating the thriller elements. The stakes are higher for Joe and Love—they have to clean up the messes they create in order to protect their marriage and their son. Every cliffhanger and unexpected twist will leave you wondering, “How are they going to get out of this one?” Plus, these 10 episodes feature the show’s most dynamic and fully formed supporting characters yet, including pretentious mommy blogger Sherry and naïve yet anguished college kid Theo. The biggest flaw of this latest season is that the writers nearly make Joe a likable voice of reason through his grounded and funny narration—let’s not forget that Joe is a vicious stalker/murderer! But still, this makes for an excellent weekend binge.
