Joe, who is in an unhappy marriage, begins to start preying on his new \u201clove,\u201d but Love doesn\u2019t seem to like it too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After trying to cover up Love\u2019s mistake, the two try to work on their marriage but alas, it does not take Joe long to find someone new.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, he\u2019s not the only sinner in this household as someone peaks Love\u2019s interest as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While they think everything is under wraps and in control, one neighbor begins to suspect the Goldberg\u2019s are not the normal \u201call-American\u201d family you would expect.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This season of <em>You, <\/em>was an interesting one as believe it or not, a lot of faults were not at the hands of Joe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it was worth watching, you can\u2019t help but get mad at Love as she isn\u2019t as strategic and semi-careful as Joe is.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actually, scratch that. Both Love and Joe will make you frustrated as they both make many mistakes that could have easily been avoided. The acting was perfect as always when it comes to this series, Penn Badgley once again does his magic at portraying the essence of Joe and his creepy tendencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing I did admire was the character and acting of Love Quinn, who is played by Victoria Pedretti.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pedretti did an amazing job of playing Love as she was able to portray a new darker side of her that we didn\u2019t get to see until the end of Season 2.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another aspect of this series that never ceases to amaze me is the cinematography, that to my eye has never been off.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the series there are many flashbacks of Joe\u2019s past as a child, it is always easy to distinguish flashbacks from the present as they appear in a blue lighting.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lighting within the series is also well thought out as most times in this season, the lighting of the house usually coordinates with Love\u2019s mood as it becomes dark when she\u2019s mad and brighter when she is happy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But an interesting approach is that no matter what mood she is in, the lighting of the bakery stays murky signifying that maybe that is how she feels within.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Camera angles are another aspect that were well thought out because many times in cinematography while switching camera angles, it can look very chaotic but throughout this season it was subtle to where you couldn\u2019t tell.&nbsp; In the final episode, the angles between Love and Joe during their last dispute was able to show you who was in control of the scene while also showing everyone\u2019s perspective. While I didn\u2019t want the season to end, the one part that did excite me is the full circle moment of the first and last meal that Joe and Love have together as it was the same chicken she made for him when they first met. If you are a fan of the series or thrillers in general and would like to give this show a chance, it can be streamed on Netflix now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Latest season is to die for&#8230; literally If you see a tall lanky man with curly hair and a hat hiding behind a tree, you&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":56,"featured_media":6299,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"ppma_author":[205],"class_list":["post-6297","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-entertainment"],"aioseo_notices":[],"cc_featured_image_caption":{"caption_text":false,"source_text":false,"source_url":false},"authors":[{"term_id":205,"user_id":56,"is_guest":0,"slug":"annalisa-perales","display_name":"Annalisa Perales","avatar_url":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/wp-content\/litespeed\/avatar\/33466b44f8a432803b353645d83a8581.jpg?ver=1778633617","0":null,"1":"","2":"","3":"","4":"","5":"","6":"","7":"","8":""}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6297","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/56"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6297"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6297\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6300,"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6297\/revisions\/6300"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6299"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6297"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6297"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6297"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thesouthtexan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ppma_author?post=6297"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
