You - Season 2: review

Joe’s creepiness has no end, neither his obsessions. The spiral of obsessive love and pursuing goals at any cost continues.

However, don’t be fooled by appearances. This second season isn’t just a continuum from the first one. It is bloodier and more shocking, with some plot twists that you probably wouldn’t see coming.

I’m good, the rest of the world complicates everything

One of the things that fascinated me from the beginning is how his distorted mind sees everything he does as some kind of “bad luck”. He truly believes he is a good person. Everything that happens is beyond him. He is so good building up his own version, that sometimes you almost feel sorry for him.

The narration in every episode could be annoying in any other show, but it fits perfectly here. There are no words to describe Badgley’s work. Absolutely perfect.

Intense development

The developments for this new season made the show grow. You have more interesting characters, and some answers to the “Candace problem”.

I loved every new addition, but Forty’s story was particularly interesting for me. I loved the character. He is naive, gentle, and sweet, with a problematic past and emotionally dependent. Nonetheless, he is the one that sees through Joe. His death gains an extra value in the show’s context since it’s not Joe who kills him, yet, he is responsible. Death, indeed, follows Joe.

After a lot more bloodshed and very questionable choices, the truth is you still care about Joe. You want to know what is going to happen to him and how he can get out of some situations.

Love

Love is… I don’t even know. She is a curious character from the beginning and the one that makes the biggest plot twist.

She is a challenge to Joe. Strong and assertive, in many ways, totally different from Beck. However, Joe can’t see the truth; he only sees what he wants. He thinks Love is a broken little thing, in need of a shinny armor prince, but he will have a huge surprise.

Joe’s shock about Love - who she is and what she is capable of - shows how delusional he is about himself. I believe that this will have a great impact on the development of the story next season. Love is like a mirror of himself that he can’t ignore.

The good villain

Joe always finds a way of seeing himself as a good guy. He has good intentions, but bad luck. Joe is the savior of everything. And then he finds Love…

The season ends with an image of perfect life and family. It raises many questions. How will they be as parents? How will they deal with everything?

And the bigger question of all: is Joe in danger?

Can Monsters Love?Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story

Netflix's Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story is not just a true crime documentary — it’s a psychological deep dive into one of the most disturbing couples in British criminal history . While the crimes are shocking, the nature of Fred and Rose’s relationship truly unsettles. Were they in love? Or was their bond something far darker? A Match Made in Hell From the moment Fred and Rose met, something clicked. But it wasn’t a love story — it was a dangerous connection built on control, abuse, and mutual cruelty. The documentary shows us how they fed off each other’s darkest urges. It wasn’t about love in the traditional sense. It was about power, domination, and shared depravity. Can Psychopaths Feel Love? This is the big question. Can two people with such extreme psychological disorders really feel love? Some experts believe psychopaths can feel attachment, but not empathy — they might need someone, but not care for them in the way most of us understand....

Raising Voices - Why Alma's Mom Had the Right Reaction

In Netflix’s Raising Voices , there's a raw, emotionally charged moment when Alma confesses to her mom that something happened the night she disappeared — she was drunk, she had sex, and something didn’t feel right. It’s the kind of moment that many parents dread. But Alma’s mom handled it in a way that deserves attention. She didn’t panic. She didn’t judge. She didn’t lose control. Instead, she met her daughter halfway, which made all the difference. What Happened in the Scene? When Alma opened up to her mom, she wasn’t just confessing — she was testing the waters for safety. Could she trust her mom with the truth? Would she still be loved after saying something shameful, scary, or confusing? Her mom’s response wasn’t perfect — but it was real. She was concerned, but didn’t explode. She asked questions. She listened. She let the moment breathe. Why That Reaction Matters Technically, what Alma described can be considered sexual assault , given her level of intoxication. Bu...
