So I'm gonna finish watching to conclusion of season 2 of "You" But I'm not a big fan. I guess it's alright. But I think I stand by my initial post:

Too Creepy, the Main character is just... too much to tolerate for me most of the time. I'm not sure I like the potential take away messages it could have. And it seems to force preachy moments that are so overtly a cry for attention that it's hard not to perceive the show as just an "attention grab, trying to be edgey and hip" It also replays tropes that have been featured in other Netflix Shows this year, from "LA is a terrible place" to "Nothing is moral and everything is dark" to "Is it good to kill bad people" and "Can there be good bad people"

I will say I think the most interesting part of the show is probably in how well it tries to get people to sympathize with the main character. However, much like Bojack, the main character is just a bad person, with few redeeming qualities, who superficially tries to move on, but never actually does. *Unlike Bojack: The main character doesn't even make a real attempt to change, his relapses are not truly relapses, so much as a pattern of behavior in which he simultaneously frames himself as the predator and a victim. Bojack shares this same tendency however, he as a character does make real attempts at reform and does actaully prostrate himself to his victims, despite his own internal conflict and self-victimization.* Maybe the show is just more sophisticated than I am, But i'm just not seeing a positive meaning it.

A redeeming idea:
Maybe the entire point of the show is to be so awkwardly uncomfortable to most people that it prompts serious conversations about stalking and aggressive, and violent tendencies of men.

My complaint about that:
But it almost feels as if it's riding off of the coat tails of the me too movement and progressivism as well as capitalizing on trauma, much like many of the complaints about the rape scene in GOT.

End of the day though it's a TV show and it's primary function is to be entertaining, so if you like it I guess it was a good show, but I'm not sure this is a netflix series I'll be recommending to friends this time around @.@

The thing I liked:
It has a dexterish vibe, which I think is a very clear inspiration for the show from what few episodes of dexter I have seen. It certainly channels that inspiration very well and makes a good spiritual successor.
