You: Season 3 - Who could be worse than Joe?

 


This third season brings an interesting and new dynamic. Near Love's impulsiveness, Joe doesn't seem that bad now, which is, per se, scary.

How does a serial killer cope with everyday life problems?

Joe is now a married man with a little kid to take care of. He is an intelligent adult. He knows what he is supposed to do, how he is supposed to behave, but… can he?

His compulsions didn't disappear, and the surrounding environment was not exactly healthy. The introvert and shy Joe lives in the suburbs now, with nosy neighbors. He can't possibly fit in.  

Oh, and don't forget, there is a baby in the middle of it!

Connection

The connection between him, Love, and baby isn't compatible with his fantasy of a perfect dad. Things aren't what they suppose to be, and Joe realizes that. He quickly starts to question himself about his ability to connect. 

Once more, deep thoughts and reflections. Hearing his thoughts, we have true insight into what is going on inside his mind. It is fascinating to watch his journey of self-knowledge. 

He feels he must find a way of making it work. How can this relationship work? Will they become a team? Will they put knives in each other's backs? I loved the couple therapy scenes. It provides some good funny moments!

Love

Joe is no longer the only serial killer and psychopath in the block. And the odds of that happening were… zero? Yet, for the show, it worked perfectly.

In this season, Joe is fighting very hard to be a better person, a good dad, but can Love control herself? Can they have a normal interaction with other human beings? Definitely not!

Predictable or amazing?

Serial killers, kids, and suburban life were too much. Wasn't it? We know it could not end well. Yet, Joe had a unique and altruistic decision. Giving his son to Dante showed a human connection - something he thought he could never have.

Love's end was, somehow, predictable, but it was a good scene anyway. 

Despite the amazing yet predictable end, Joe is not cured or anything. His obsession continues. So, the question remaining is: is Marienne safe?

Review: Billie Eilish: Unfiltered – A Shallow, Soulless Recap Pretending to Be a Documentary

  Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ (1/5) If you're expecting Billie Eilish: Unfiltered to offer an intimate look into the life, artistry, or creative process of one of Gen Z’s most influential pop icons, prepare to be disappointed.  This so-called documentary barely scratches the surface, delivering little more than a dry, lifeless rundown of Billie Eilish 's discography, awards, and chart performances. At best, it's a glorified Wikipedia entry with background music. At worst, it’s a wasted hour of potential. Unfiltered? The documentary lacks narrative depth, personal insight, or any meaningful exploration of who Billie Eilish is beyond her resume. Rather than providing behind-the-scenes footage, raw interviews, or critical commentary, Unfiltered relies on a monotonous narrator reeling off her achievements like items on a grocery list. There are occasional quotes from Billie herself, but they’re so brief and context-free they feel like filler material. For a documentary claiming to be “u...

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...
