You has been the center of my attention since 2019. I loved how captivating it was, a narrative thriller with strong acting and a great soundtrack. Season 2 took my experience to another level. Victoria Pedretti entered the scene and completely stole the spotlight from Penn Badgley, turning You into a masterpiece.

Season 3 had weaker writing, but it still delivered solid characters and managed to stand its ground. Then came Season 4, split into two parts, which felt like a major step backward. The flaws in the writing were fully exposed, and the main character became far too predictable and linear.

The fifth and final season started off well, but it went downhill fast. Netflix was clearly doing what it does best, pushing its agenda and forcing it onto the story. From the "girl power" gang to the terribly written feminism, it felt like a parody of what You once was. And the way they turned the main character into a joke was just sad.

Instead of delivering a proper closure, the final season felt like the rainbow fantasy of a confused teenager living in the UK, someone who knows nothing more than TikTok trends and Aldi snacks.
