Why everyone's talking about new Netflix show 'You'

Prepare to binge. - by Lauren W
  • 07 Jan 2019

If you've spent any amount of time on the Internet in the past week then you'll have noticed people talking (slash freaking out) about You.

Yep, step aside Bird Box and accompanying memes – Netflix has dropped a new, binge-worthy series that will have you stuck to the couch (and assessing your social media privacy settings). 

You – based on the novel of the same name – follows bookstore manager Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley), as he becomes increasingly obsessed with aspiring writer Guinevere Beck (Elizabeth Lail). Over ten thrilling episodes, narrated by the charming sociopath himself, Joe goes to extreme measures to insert himself into her life, removing any obstacles that stand in his way.
