‘You’ season 3 review: Penn Badgley and Victoria Pedretti raise red flags galore in suburbia

Just when we thought psychodrama series ‘You’ could not get any more depraved, the third season brings in more bone-chilling arcs that can unsettle even the most desensitised viewer

Every time I hear Joe Goldberg say, “And then... I saw you,” a sense of nauseating foreboding sinks in. Penn Badgely’s voiceover delivery in Netflix’s You rivals none when it comes to those haunting deep rumble of his voice and the slow, predatory pacing. And for season three, Badgley ups the ante.

The deeply disturbing turn of events at the end of the second season saw Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti) reveal that she not only developed an unhealthy obsession with Joe (more than he did with her) but also left a trail of bodies – Candace Stone and Delilah Alves – in her wake because of it. Oh, and let’s not forget the minor announcement that she was pregnant with Joe’s child. Joe, now feeling stifled by the equally deranged Love, accepts the responsibility of raising his child with Quinn and the cosy family moves to an affluent neighbourhood in the suburbs, as a way to restart their lives. But we know that does not last long.
