Overview

Joe Goldberg seems like the perfect guy: charming, well-read, devoted. That is exactly what makes You so unsettling. Told largely from inside Joe’s head, the series follows a bookstore manager whose idea of love slides into obsession, surveillance and murder — and who somehow keeps convincing himself (and sometimes us) that he is the hero of the story. From New York to Los Angeles, London and back, each season gives Joe a new city, a new object of affection and a new chance to be better — and each time the pattern repeats. Penn Badgley is mesmerizing in a role that asks you to root for a monster, and the show’s dark humor and twisty plotting made it one of Netflix’s most talked-about thrillers. Hello, you.
