I just finished watching the new Netflix series YOU about an obsessive, murderous stalker…. I am sorry to say this but the leading character of Beck is such a boring, dull, basic white girl. There is nothing remarkable about her and I found it very hard to care about her safety or well-being. Other female characters were more interesting than her and would have been better leading characters. Peach, the closeted biracial lesbian from a rich New York family, Karen Minty, the black woman who takes no bullshit, or the adopted Asian friend, Lynn.
The show is really good though, the dialogue is fantastic and there were a lot of unexpected twists and turns. The only thing I hated about the show was Beck and her whiny “woe is me, waa waa my life is so hard” nasal attitude and her dumb basic white girl persona.
