Some soap operas know exactly when to bend over. This is clearly not the case with You are, which is landing on Netflix with a useless and unfortunately redundant third season.

First a warning: This script contains some spoilers about the second season of You are. If it is still in sleep mode in the Netflix queue, we advise you to stop reading here.

Joe and Love is back for Season 3 of You on Netflix.

However, it is not due to lack of will. Creators are constantly multiplying avenues—including couples therapy sessions, regular flashbacks and a swinger party, no less—to try to get Joe Wolf off the beaten track.

However, we often ditch some promising avenues to get the couple back to exactly where we expected it to be.

Fortunately, there is still the undeniable charisma of Ben Badgley and Victoria Pedretti, and perhaps the only element that has allowed us to make it to the end of Episode 10.

Do You are Is it a disaster? No. Some fans will find their accounts. But this third season is bitterly disappointing, giving us the impression that its creators have taken the park tours. Let’s hope that the fourth, which has already been confirmed, can prove the opposite.
