One fan wrote in all caps to state, “IT’S FINALLY, I’M GOING THROUGH THE GRIEF STAGE,” while someone who clearly lives and breathes for the series wrote, “season finale? ? how do you want me to last, TELL ME???.”
These fans praised Netflix for ending it in the fifth season because they believed the character “could have just escaped without it feeling stale or repetitive.”
Some followers are already predicting the plot and how it will end, like this user who stated firmly, “If he is not killed by all the women who are alive, then I want nothing.”
A fifth indicated that they want some characters to return and to “BRING BACK LOVE SO SHE CAN CONNECT HIM AND LIVE HAPPY WITH HENRY!!!,” while a sixth indicated, “There’s only one way for this series to end, and that’s Joe’s death for all which he did.”
After the big plot twist that resulted from Joe Goldberg’s life in London, fans are clearly impatient for the hit Netflix thriller to make a comeback for its final season. In a press release on Friday, PEOPLE reports that the streaming giant hinted that the upcoming season will reveal whether he ends up facing consequences for his actions.
The fourth season sees Joe adopt a new identity as Professor Jonathan Moore and embark on an academic career abroad, immersing himself in London’s high society. Unfortunately, shortly after he settles in, he finds himself embroiled in a series of murders by a killer who targets his newly made friends.
Determined to end his life first, he suppresses his murderous tendencies despite provocation. In Part 2 of the show, the serial killer forms an unexpected bond with another individual who shares his penchant for violence.
However, the series raises questions about the viability of a friendship between two killers. They raise the question of whether Joe can overcome his attraction to attractive women and leave his homicidal tendencies behind permanently.
Penn Badgley Calls Out Netflix For Humanizing Serial Killers In Its Content
The “Gossip Girl” star joined the conversation about Netflix’s portrayal of serial killers, specifically in the release of “Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story.” The actor spoke out against the streaming platform’s choice, criticizing how it humanizes and generates empathy for real-life killers through its content.
Despite his efforts to stop fans from loving his character in “YOU,” The Blast shared that Badgley’s portrayal in the first part of season 4 didn’t help in reducing anything.
However, in an appearance on Entertainment Tonight, the actor once again addressed the issue of fans finding themselves drawn to serial killers when he was asked, “What is your message to people who find themselves drawn to serial killers?”
He responds with a request for the individual to introspect before he admits that their show is designed to make people develop feelings for the character, Joe. He then distinguished the intent of their plan from the responsibility that rested on other real-life personalities such as Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer.
However, he stated that the responsibility for portraying an individual like Dahmer rests solely on Netflix’s shoulders. When discussing why certain individuals are drawn to killers, the “John Tucker Must Die” actor admitted that he had some insights, but they needed a lengthy explanation. He further described the phenomenon as strange.
