The echoes of early seasons of Dexter are still evident in You, with the ongoing voiceover narration and our rooting for an obvious sociopath/serial killer. I believe someone actually name checks Dexter in season two. But season three doubles down with Joe marrying and settling down, with child, with his "soulmate" Love. Whereas Joe tries to control his urges and wants to be the best he can be, especially regarding son Henry, he wants to be the loving father he never had. What parent doesn't want to learn from their own parents mistakes and thereby raise a better version of themselves? He is matched by Love, who is carrying her own parental issues, trying to create the white picket fence suburban life dream. Ah, but Love proves to be just as dangerous as Joe, and their back and forth provides the thread that runs through the season. A definitely binge worthy season.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

An interesting worthwhile third act with highlight performances from Love&Joe. But the aforementioned isn't enough to excuse the bland yellowed cinematography or the cyclical storylines. All deaths felt predictable and unnecessary. The urgency of the 1st 2 seasons where it would feel difficult watching a good character trapped in their glass cage is gone. You feel disconnected to their plight. Even the body clean ups are too easy. Gone is the anxiety of a injured Joe pissing in a jar or a frightened joe with a missing finger, nope niw it's just black plastic bags and bad narration's. It's jarring. And the pacing is very heavy handed compared to previous seasons.

Netflix decided to push their woke politics hard, it totally destroyed immersion. Another show sacrificed on the altar of wokeness.

This season is a complete **** show, it is very expected and cheesy. Should not even be renewed for another season. I could easily predict everything that was going to happen since the beginning.
