YOU Season 2 Review

[@BrainPilot]

I have just released a new video ranking all of the characters from Season 1 and Season 2! Take a look at the ranking from worst to best! kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5LOmHSci6yVfrs

[@langerak-7276]

The real winner here is the real will, he got away with 50k in debt and out of a psycho killer’s cage then to live with his dream gf

[@BrainPilot]

And all of his fingers!

[@joshdeveaux6936]

And made a new friend!

[@maddyjul07]

Langerak - the only character who got a real happy ending..... for now

[@BeckB-wy9vc]

@@maddyjul07 Well yeah...but I dont think Joe will get rid of him unless he really really has to because Will provides him with fake ID's and also is able to hack other people and obtain useful information for him. And Joe doesnt really wanna kill people anymore, so I think Will has good chances for surviving the third season.

[@maddyjul07]

xo xo well im just saying for now because the show isn’t done yet and anyone is capable of dying in the show so yeah

[@satari5999]

I saw somewhere that joe doesn’t love love anymore because she’s a mirror image of himself. And he hates himself.

[@maddyjul07]

Ariana and because his whole personality trait is just obsessing over the thought of a perfect women in his life that he will never have because no one is perfect and something will always be in the way

[@ibrazrahman6112]

maddyjul07 I think he didn’t love her anymore bcoz she wasn’t the innocent kind person he thought she was and she also ruined Delilah and Ellie’s life who he cared a lot about

[@fobluv4lyfe]

That is a very interesting view. I never thought of it like that. Changing the whole way I view season 3.

[@stratosm3154]

While being in the cage joe seems to finally understand how bad his actions have been and he hates himself . This is the point where he gets to know that love is exaclty like him

[@sammiss3804]

Ibraz Rahman I don’t think it really has as much to do with innocence than to do with the fact that Love isn’t a damsel in distress. Candice wasn’t exactly innocent neither was Beck. Joe tried his best to save his mother (killing his dad) and he is looking to do the same in his love interests. But Love doesn’t need him, and that’s when his interest in Love went out the window. It all pins down to his mom who he described as a Saint (which she wasn’t- had numerous affairs in front of Joe, abandoned Joe to go off with men) and the fact that he needs to feel needed / save a girl who is far from innocent in anyone’s eyes but Joe’s (just like his mom)

[@vamsiB13]

If season 3 is just about Joe walking around the city and narrating every thing he sees, I would still pay to watch that.

[@BrainPilot]

I would be next in line to pay for that!

Forty is most likely bi, you see hints of it throughout the season when he asks Joe "Hey Joe would you fuck me?" or when him and his co worker were bonding over a gay app. Forty might be curious and open with his sexuality I don't think his parents would care they would probably see it as something special.

I initially felt that Love was too perfect in that kind of quirky manic pixie dream girl way. However, when the twist happened, everything made sense. She seemed too good to be true because she was, in fact, the opposite. A manipulative maniacal person who is excellent at reading people and putting on an act to win them over. With that reveal, I was in Love...

[@DrMuffin1080]

Oooooh clever

[@milovanovicmatija]

As soon as it was mentioned that her husband is dead my mind went for "she's also the killer!" Although for the wrong reasons, I was still right!

[@muncher1753]

When she gives him the book on the first date, and she says that she sees darkness in him, damn I had chills because Love stares you down and it’s chilling and at this moment I immediately had a feeling about her

[@kimberlymokadikwa6305]

Matt same, I’m not sure why I thought that but I definitely felt there was more to his death

[@maheenshasha9504]

Since the very beginning I felt Love was just to open and eager with Joe/Will and it didn't add up with her loss of her husband...someone who lost the love of her life just two years ago....it was too telling when she kept on guessing Joe's past loss and felt she really wanted to pace their relationship,

[@jackshredz]

This season made me like this show even more than I already did! So excited for what’s to come next!

[@BrainPilot]

Couldn't agree with you more!

[@SlimShady-yj8sn]

Do we have some kind of information about season 3

[@jackshredz]

Alexander Custers Pinto Nothing has been confirmed yet, but a third season can be expected. Penn Badgley even accidentally hinted at there being a third season in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. Caroline Kepnes is also planning on writing a third and fourth book, so we can expect at least 2 more seasons.

[@ourcorrectopinions6824]

Season two had so many more annoying, insufferable characters that cluttered the story with drenched cliche-LA-meets-internet dialogue.

[@elenastragapede8102]

Candace's story of being abused and almost murdered by her ex boyfriend, going to the police and them being unable to do anything about it, and trying to resolve the issues herself with no one believing her, resulting in her death, is sad, but it's even more chilling to think that many women go through the same or similar situations (especially with the police not being able to help and no one believing them). And yet, by viewing the show through Joe's perspective, we end up rooting for him and don't feel too bad when Candace died because we knew that it meant Joe could stay away from jail. Scary :/

[@realshipn5546]

This show plays with our emotions

[@ros734]

was I the only one rooting for Candace? :x

[@milovanovicmatija]

Not that New York can ever be considered a "quiet, peaceful, town." It'll be really interesting to see what Joe does in mundane, white-flight suburbia.

[@BrainPilot]

Yeah, that's understandable! In Season 1, the show made New York seem like it had less of a buzz than what it does in reality. However, from the off, it is made apparent in Season 2 that Joe has gone to a city where people go to make something of themselves and there is a lot more of an atmosphere than season 1.

[@actual_angie]

@@BrainPilot It would be really interesting to see what Joe would do in a country atmosphere, especially since those are the professed values he seems to hold. What suprises me the most about Joe is that he doesn't seem to realize exactly how many people he has that genuinely like him-Ethan, Moony, Beck's girlfriends-he left a lot of people behind when he left New York, nevermind the loose ends to his sociopathy. I wonder if those threads will follow him into his new life too?

[@sarabarhorst7443]

I agree but am I the only one who didnt like the actress that played her

[@trescohen8232]

All tho love was more interesting i wouldnt say she was a better character. This is because both beck and love were there to serve a certain purpose. In which they served their purposes beautifully. If beck was written differently we wouldnt have learned what we needed to about joe to move onto such a good season 2. This show isnt a character base plot where all the characters stories are meant to be the story and push it forward. This is a plot just about joe. Hence why he narrates and we pretty much only see things through his eyes. Every character is just there to push joe forward and no other reason. They are all in service to joe and his story. Thus why i have a hard time saying beck was a bad character. But love was ultimately more interesting

[@nikobe5284]

I agree. Beck was so bland and boring to me. Don’t get me wrong, I do miss her a little. But if I had to chose between her and Love, I’d DEFINITELY choose Love all the way.

Nah i think season 1 was better imo. Every episode felt like a movie, and I actually got really attached to Beck. But with season 2 there was always something off about Love. I will say though when she was revealed as a murderer and Joe's mirror, I was surprised. And Joe clearly doesn't even love Love anymore and now he is just stuck with her.

[@nikelatt]

Loved the season however one of the things that didn't make sense was why the cop at the end was so quick to go for the kill shot with Forty when he knows how powerful his family is. Like he could've just shot him in the leg or just told him to drop the gun? Instead of killing the son of the people who supposedly "own the LAPD" to save some random sketchy dude (in his eyes). Anyway just thought that part was a little annoying, though I understand Forty had to die for Joe and Love to get away with it.

[@BeckB-wy9vc]

If he’d “just” shot him in the leg he would still be able to pull the trigger. Yeah, there’s a high probability that due to pain or shock he’d let go of the gun or something but do you rlly wanna take that risk, if he’s about to shoot someone?

I agree on liking Candace the least and that Amber Child’s performance was mediocre. Candace probably could’ve been cast better, yes. However, I don’t think that the role not coming naturally to her should excuse her lackluster acting. Penn said in an interview that he found it hard to play Joe and didn’t want to humanize him because the character goes against everything Penn is and stands for, but that he felt his obligation as an actor is to play all of a character well. That’s what separates the great actors from the rest: consistently delivered great performances and versatility in roles.

ugh my fav was Delilah :( watching her character development was awesome to watch, and I was rooting for her when she found all of Joe's secrets. So sad they had to kill her off

[@BrainPilot]

Such a shame about her character!

[@marianacabeda]

Who else thinks Joe's neighbor is his mom? 🤔

[@MsDanaElliott]

Mariana Cabeda no I think his mom is dead.

[@geko9214]

nooo he LIKES the neighbor in a different way. he called her you which has always been a love interest

[@SophieHolohan]

I think it is the mom because if you look at her hands, they're definitely those of an older woman. Also, all of his issues are due to his relationship with his parents, and I'm pretty sure he said: "YOU are my home" in one of the flashback clips when he was a little boy. I definitely think it's going to be more than just another girl if it's not his mom.

[@marianacabeda]

@@MsDanaElliott We also thought Candice was dead in Season 1 😛 but I think if his mom was dead it would have been made explicit in his flashbacks, unless they purposely wanted to make us wonder 🤷‍♀️

[@marianacabeda]

@@SophieHolohan I agree, I think its the mom because we didn't have any clues about other special woman in his life. All his issues come from the sick environment he grew up in and his mom was the first, if not only, woman that he truly loved, also the first woman he killed for.

[@mayaschneiderman9632]

I think season 1 and season 2 had very different vibes. I loved them both but I think I may have enjoyed season 2 even more. It was amazing.

[@InhaleLovexhaleHate1]

“fear and loathing in beverly hills” was the best episode

[@ninjastorm540]

Love and Beck are like night and day in terms of likability. I "loved" Love too lol, and even with the reveal, she was still a great character to watch. Its surprising that even though Love turned out to be a psychopath too, people like me still preferred her over Beck. Beck wasnt a horrible person but she was the epitome one of the worst people you would want to have a relationship with (that's not a criminal lol).

[@Matt-rm5ir]

One of the most surprisingly great shows I've seen! Thought this was gonna be like a CW Riverdale cringe fest, but it is so much better than that. Smart writing, darkly funny, well shot, and great tension! Of course, all surrounding a great, conflicted lead character that you still root for given the evil deeds he has done. Cannot wait for S3!

[@katharinein4k]

this was an amazing review. thank you for this.

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the review!

The part the narrator said.. "apparently she is carrying Joe's baby " got me creating so many story lines for season 3 🤯

The baby will come out mixed race and turn Joe full psycho, I hope there is another 2 or 3 full seasons of the show detailing his slide into complete madness.

Love’s twist was the last thing I could’ve thought of in the whole show, but looking back, it made perfect sense. And that’s the art of this show.

[@toecutterjones]

I knew Love was his equal from the beginning. Especially once I heard the au pair story I totally knew she did it.

Every actor and actress in this slow plays their character perfectly. The casting in this show is amazing

Hehehe

[@NileshRamphal]

100% agree , watching the season again just cause of her

[@missautumn764]

I saw the "twist" coming from miles away. Preferred season 1 when the story still felt fresh. Beth's response felt realistic. Love being another psycho just feels lame. Like "we couldn't do the same thing again so I guess the only other option we have is making her a psycho too". Not impressed with the story. The acting is still on point though. Love Penn!

[@Thefirespinproject]

There just isn’t pleasing some people. It’s beck btw not Beth

[@ninjastorm540]

I saw the twist too but let it go just to be proved right from the beginning lol. In the beginning when Candace said she would prove to Joe he wrong first i thought she was the one who found a way to get Love (another psychopath to latch on to him). So i was suspecting Love for the first few episodes but let it go after Candace came and disproved it to later find out i was partially right lol.

[@reginoramos6956]

Honestly the 1st season was gold compared to the 2nd season

[@naturalbby1722]

I LOVED CANDACE and FORTY! I was rooting for Candace all the way! She went through all of that to be killed by Love! When Forty figured out the story at the end I was so happy

[@taylor197]

Victoria Pedretti (I’m so sorry if I didn’t spell her last name correctly) is such an amazing and talented actress and I cannot wait to see her again in season 3 and any of her other future performances

[@spearshake4771]

I'd read Hidden Bodies before season 2 came out and to be honest I expected the big twist with Love. I just kind of had hoped that the mug of urine would play a bigger role. Also when I finally saw Love on screen I had thought maybe the writers weren't going to use the twist from the book so in the end, I was a little surprised.

[@samjohnson5288]

The one thing that didn’t make sense to me and what I believe is a bit of a plot hole is when Delilah discovered Will/Joe’s storage unit. Throughout the series joe has found himself in much worse situations (pacos shopping list, breaking into Candace’s rental, getting caught by fincher, etc.) and he has crafted on-the-spot lies much more intricate than the one he would have needed in that situation, which would have been...: “I’m a book collector and I have my collection of priceless originals being shipped here from New York. They must be kept in perfect condition, and wouldn’t last in the LA climate. In this “chamber” I can control the temperature and humidity to ensure that they remain in optimal condition...” blah blah blah and so on. This is an easy lie that he could have 100% come up with and he could have even flipped the situation on Delilah because after all, she’s the psycho that scavenged his apt and stole the keys. It just didn’t feel consistent with his character.

[@doingme8384]

Sam Johnson I think he was just trying to do good so bad...it actually backfired on him

[@welcometofalsettolannddd2924]

It wouldn’t explain the box with panties and blood and the bed and pillow on the floor tho. Especially since there wasn’t any books in there.

[@Immortal4everable]

Maybe I’m bugging or something but, season one sucked me in. I felt like I was fighting myself to pay attention this season. Idk I liked it less.

[@fearlessbetz]

I totally agree, I watched season 1 a couple of times now. I can't say there was any episode in 2 that really lit up for me. I hated the kid sideplots in both seasons, and Forty was so irritating! I fast forwarded through some Delilah and Forty scenes.

[@NileshRamphal]

This may be only my opinion but I really liked loves story arc and overall character more then back because she has so much more depth now due to that twist and it doesn't make her one dimensional like beck who was just this ordinary girl. Love is far from ordinary and hope they dont off her in season 3 cause shes a great character

[@AlexFarleyMusic]

Best story: Season 1 Best Cast & Characters: Season 2

[@croquette3520]

I was actually like Joe in this series. I fell in love with Love as a character because I think that she is too good to be killed by Joe on some point of event. Then the twist came. And like Joe, all I can see is a fantasy version of Love and I have mixed feelings of loving her character, but I think she is very interesting.

[@stiltmansstilt1014]

I actually called Love being a killer early on but I was wrong for the reason why. When we realized Loves husband died of a mysterious sickness and that Love was a chef who loved cooking , I assumed she poisoned him . So even though I was wrong about that, it did have me thinking she was a killer from early on.

[@Fusion0603]

Agreed.. loveeee Will.. I pray his the dark horse and comes back..I cannot stop watching 🙌🙌

[@Chocolatepain]

Seems like the general consensus is that most people don't like Candace's performance.

[@trescohen8232]

This show is so well fucking written. Id also say while the show takes "love"/obsession to its extremes it shows alof of problems with how people view the concept of love today. Especially when love said "u were looking at the fantasy of me and not really me". This line hit hard cause its so true for so many people. I think this show does a great job of making us question what does it mean to love someone.

[@riorosario18]

I loved this season so muchhhh mostly because they added my gurl Victoria Pedretti plus they added so many twists and turns to the usual formula. I enjoyed every moment and my favorite character was Forty 😂😂 Also, does anybody else feel really bad for Candace and what happened to her or is it just me?

[@daisyarreguin9012]

migwel just you

[@BeckB-wy9vc]

I hated Candace for some reason. I get that Joe has done horrific things to her but she still acts like she’s some kind of angel, even though she’s not. She cheated on him for a stupid deal and left him devastated. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not on Joes side but this whole “Candace seeking revenge thing” Is just crazy to me (at least the way she does it).

[@riorosario18]

Lol yeah but for me the scene where she was explaining everything to the cops about joe trying to kill her and the cops not able to do anything to help kinda got to me 😂 and when candace finally gets Joe to come to his senses and face all the bad things he has done, she gets murdered by Love

[@zainzachgaming8805]

I love love!! She made me root for her

[@sydneyt4]

Forty was my fave and I was so sorry to see him go

[@lxxy05]

why was he your favorite? he was honestly annoying and manipulative.

[@sydneyt4]

He was dealing with withdrawal from the addiction caused from him being framed and bearing the burden of his psycho killer sister’s murder. And he was the only one that figured it all out in the end and tried to save his sister and anyone else in danger of Joe.

[@BeckB-wy9vc]

I didn’t like forty. I get that he’s been trough some tough things but that doesn’t justify faking a kidnapping, holding someone hostage in a hotel and even drugging them, like seriously?

[@sydneyt4]

Tru tru tru but compared to the other psychos I liked him way better than Joe and Love

[@yvonnel2918]

Great review! Tbh I wasn't expecting too much since most Netflix shows are getting dumber and dumber as they go so I was really pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed this season more than season 1. I really like how they used "Crime and Punishment" to give Joe's character more depth. I didn't like Beck so I was prepared to dislike Love based on trailers but she was such a great written character with more personality and energy! And Forty was a really pleasant surprise too - I really like the friendship between him and Joe. What a great season :) You gained a new subscriber!

[@BrainPilot]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@zaltarical]

I read somewhere that Joe has never actually been in love-he’s just in love with the idea of it. That’s why he checks out the woman at the end of season 2. He’ll never be satisfied. He likes to put girls on a pedestal, and when they fall down from that, he loses interest

[@zach346]

I love You It’s a really good show imo and very interesting Can’t wait till season 3

[@gerdaberna]

I feel like they should have arrested Joe! I dont think everyone sees how pyscho he is! I mean the ending of S1 and S2 was genius but still it would have made it more rralistic I guess

[@captainbeastwinger4940]

It's still fiction it's not Meant to be taken realisticly

[@luigixroxas]

gerdaberna they are eventually gonna arrest him at the end but if they arrested in the first seasons there would be no more of the actual series

[@gerdaberna]

@@luigixroxas i was expecting him to be arrested in the second season, since at first he was talking about heartbreak , talking about loosing the love of his life , as if it was normal fot him to kill Beck and that everything he felt was okay! (Which pissed me off ) but after the 8th episode (where he gets drugged) everything takes such a huge turn and it really made me love the 2nd season more. I was still hoping he would get arrested but gotta expect the unexpected

[@maxjenner5776]

In the final episode of season 2, Love said to Forty " for my peace of mind, walk me through the plan ?", Does anyone know why she said that ? Does she have a secret plan against Joe ?. Edit : I think it's possible, at some point, she will blame her brother's death on Joe. I mean, after all, they were siblings, she might've loved her brother more than she has ever loved Joe.

Schquita Goodwin I love him, and want him to continue, but it’s only so there are more seasons. If this was real, obviously I’d want him in prison, and I think most would.

[@pjfdourley4998]

In the book, Candice runs off to LA and Joe follows her to kill her.This makes so much more sense than the series, why would Candice actively pursue Joe if she was scared of him. Also the whole kidnapping the guy for his identity was just messy and so pointless. For me the story started off on the wrong foot which encouraged pointless characters with senseless sub-plots

[@BeckB-wy9vc]

I like the show actually but I get where you’re coming from with the Candace story. It didn’t seem logical to me why Candace would try to hunt him down.

At first I loved Love and hated Forty but then I fell in love with Forty and hated Love. I hated what they did to her character and hated how they got away with everything. Looking back it does make sense that Love turned out to be as crazy as Joe and obviously the show would be over if Joe got caught but fuck the injustice was 10xs worse this season. Not saying that what happened in S1 wasn’t horrific, it was. I just really hate Joe but can’t stop watching or thinking about the show which is the point. But I kind of wish I loved Joe to some extent, like with Dexter. He was a serial killer but he treated Rita and the kids well and tried to use his dark passenger to ppl he felt deserved it (obviously nobody deserves to be murdered.) It hurt seeing such wonderful characters die. And I honestly loved Cadence and I wish she could’ve gotten some justice. It’s so interesting reading and hearing other people’s thoughts/reactions. Ty ^.^ I’m excited for S3 and I really hope one day Joe and Love get what they deserve.
