Enlightened is very well written and Laura Dern is excellent in her role as the protagonist.
A character that is hard to like, and actually annoying, and yet you still feel empathy for her and she fumbles through life, trying to do good.
It's a great mix of social commentary, satire and a dark humor brought to life with a mix of interesting, awkward, sad and oblivious characters.
I do find it leaves me feeling a little uneasy and pensive, and yet I still want to watch more because it is so well done.
If you are all about feel good, pure entertainment - then this is not a show for you.

I have watched all 3 seasons and am always thoroughly entertained.
The acting is good and so is the writing. I thought Joe's running commentary in Season 3 was very well written.
Many reviews compare You to Dexter, but besides for the protagonist being a killer, I think the similarities end there.
There is a dark humor to You that Dexter didn't have, the main storylines are vastly different too...Joe isn't some vigilante killer taking out bad guys...his is a twisted love story.
Anyway, I would say this is definitely worth watching!
