'You' Season 4 Review: A Risky Reinvention for Joe Goldberg Pays Off (Collider.com)

Hello, You. It's been far too long. Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley), resident serial killer with a penchant for baseball caps and pretentious literature, ...

At the end of Season 2, we learned that Love is not who Joe thinks she is – and certainly not who we thought she was either. You Season 4 Part 1 is now streaming on Netflix. The last five episodes of You Season 4 are Badgley’s most impressive performance to date. Season 4 of You is bold and unexpected with twists and turns that are simply wicked. You is the master of twists, and Season 4 is no exception. Yes, it’s fun watching Joe scramble to pin down his own mysterious stalker, but it lacks that extra spark that kept us on the edge of our seats the last three seasons. The second half of Season 4 is admittedly stronger than the first. Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley), resident serial killer with a penchant for baseball caps and pretentious literature, is back for the newest season of You – but this time, he’s got a new name, new city, and new objective. All of that said, however, Season 4 proved that You can still be good without Love because of one key reason: it finally broke its [tried-and-true formula](https://collider.com/you-season-4-repetitive/). There are certainly some standouts in You’s new supporting cast – Charlotte Ritchie gives a beautiful depth to her character Kate, who may be a member of the elite, but has an emotional backstory that balances out her initial “ice queen” act. He is surrounded by a new cast of eccentric characters – a group of friends who all met as students at Oxford. The start of Season 4 sees Joe in London with a brand-new identity: Professor Jonathan Moore, a college instructor of American short fiction.

What happened to Marienne in You season 4? (Radio Times)

Marienne Bellamy, played by Tati Gabrielle, is back for You season 4, but does Penn Badgley's Joe Goldberg find her after all? Read on to find out.

Netflix is also available on [Sky Glass](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?id=489797&clickref=radiotimes-1774390&awinmid=11005&p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sky.com%2Fglass) and [Virgin Media Stream](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?id=489797&clickref=radiotimes-1774390&awinmid=6399&p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.virginmedia.com%2Ftv%2Fstreaming). The rest of the series is mainly concerned with Joe facing the Eat The Rich killer who also somehow knows his true identity – but will Marienne appear in the series again? But he tasks Joe with one last thing: because Marienne knows Joe is alive, he now has to kill her. The last we saw of Joe in season 3 was wandering around Paris, a place Marienne had mentioned to Joe about going earlier in the season. He has his first flashback and explains that he thought the distance he had travelled would count for something to Marienne. After seeing Marienne, he explains that his only plan was to get out of London but he's approached by Elliot Tannenberg (Adam James), an employee of Ray Quinn's, Joe's former father-in-law. He's wondering whether he did commit the murder or not and in his narrative monologue, is penning it as if to Marienne. She runs into an old warehouse building, hiding in a disused room and thinks she's hidden away from Joe, but he confronts her in the stairwell. But in fact, we learn pretty early on (as in, in season 4's first episode) what happened to her. As previously mentioned, Marienne got caught up in the Love and Joe saga – and it very nearly got her killed. Although it looked like Love was going to kill Marienne, she had a change of heart and thus, Marienne's whereabouts were unknown going into season 4. But the librarian had enough problems of her own to contend with before Joe's arrival.

'You' Season 4 Review: Netflix Thriller Is Running Out of Steam (CNET)

When Joe Goldberg, the main character of Netflix's psychological thriller You, first put on his accidentally cool vintage baseball cap, his whole tousled ...

Subverting repetitive patterns and finding new directions to pull Joe in is the name of the game for season 4. The second part of season 4, arriving a month later than the first, is the better half, so it's worth sticking it out in this world of the British royal adjacent. He and Joe share a love of books, among other similarities. But you know it's just a matter of time, because it's Joe. Joe is quickly entangled in business he strictly set out to avoid. Flashbacks to Paris reveal what happened when Joe first escaped the mess he left behind in the US.

<em>You</em> season 4 part 1 recap: Joe finds a spot of bother in ... (EW.com)

'You' season 4 finds Joe's solitary new life in London disrupted by a murder and a new pack of acquaintances. Read EW's recap of episodes 1 through 5.

Rhys expects him to be grateful that Roald's trussed and ready to be posthumously framed for all the murders. He conks Joe in the head with a rifle, and Joe wakes up chained in Hampsie's dungeon. Kate tells them all to back off, and everyone's cruelly amused that Joe doesn't know the truth about her: she'd be first to the guillotine in a revolution. Kate takes the opportunity to come clean to Joe: her father's one of the most powerful and most evil men on the planet. Phoebe bursts into Kate's room and perches like a queen on the trunk with the body, and Joe and Kate try to hold it together as she tells them that she caught Adam with a servant. You texts again, and at first Joe wants to lash out at this upending of his life, but he holds back, realizing that what you wants is a kindred spirit. Roald tells Kate to quit playing with boys and to claim her place in the world. Joe saves the day with his observation skills, leading Kate to the vandal thanks to the hostel key he saw sticking out of her pocket. Joe has no memory of doing a murder, and he curses the whole time he's dragging the body to the boot of his borrowed car. Adam warns Joe that Malcolm's a blackmailer, and Joe realizes this honestly makes it unlikely that Adam's the murderer. To avoid the paparazzi, Joe slips in through the back with a woman who knows the door code. Phoebe invites him to Simon's gallery opening and orders him to select a suit from the closet of freebies she gets from designers.

Penn Badgley explains You's "new genre" for season 4 (Capital FM)

Penn Badgley has spoken about the new direction Netflix's You is taking, calling the reset a "fun challenge".

[You season four deviates from the storyline of the original book series](/news/tv-film/you-netflix-books-differences/) by Caroline Kepnes and carves out a new plot for Joe in The Big Smoke. [TV Insider](https://www.tvinsider.com/1080584/you-season-4-part-1-penn-badgley-joe-goldberg/) about the new direction, he said: "Part 1 was a nice reprieve. And with this season, it was more true than ever."

In 'You' Season 4, Joe Goldberg Is No Longer in Control (The New York Times)

The Netflix thriller's latest episodes have its antihero, played by Penn Badgley, on the back foot as he navigates the world of London's ultrarich.

In London, “not only are there people who have a ridiculous amount of money and have no idea what’s going on in the world, but they have titles,” Gamble said. “We never felt any responsibility to reform Joe, to give him a particularly happy ending,” Gamble said. It’s an evolution that Badgley is also keenly aware of: Joe is now “managing to grow emotionally, while not growing at all,” he said in a recent video interview. In Joe’s twisted mind, “he seems to actually respect her more,” he added. The stories he told himself with previous love interests, like Beck in Season 1 or Love, “stopped in those scenes with Marienne,” Gamble said. Setting the fourth season in London was, in part, a practical one: Paris would have been more complicated in terms of language and logistics. The season sees Joe “walking himself closer and closer to a self-awareness that he really won’t know what to do with,” Gamble said. Ahead of each new season, the production team ask themselves, “what kind of thriller we’re going to put him in,” Gamble said. His plans, however, are quickly scuppered when members of the ultrarich group of friends he resentfully joins start getting killed, and Joe must find the murderer before he’s framed for their crimes. (“In a more just society, we would all see Joe as problematic and not be interested in the show, but that’s not the society we live in,” Badgley [told The New York Times in 2019](https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/24/arts/television/penn-badgley-you-netflix.html).) Not only is it set in London, but we soon find Joe on the back foot, being manipulated by a mysterious enemy who may be an even more accomplished killer. Marienne fled to Paris with her daughter — and Joe vowed to find her.

Review: 'You' turns the tables on Penn Badgley in somewhat ... (USA TODAY)

And in its fourth season, "You" is beginning to turn from sinister to soap opera. Penn Badgley's psychotic stalker and murderer Joe Goldberg has his own stalker ...

It doesn't help that the "eat the rich" subgenre has been done and redone on TV and film lately, much better than "You" manages here, at least in the first part of the season. The slice of British upper-crust society "You" slips Joe into this time around seems more of a caricature, perhaps a pitfall of transporting an American series abroad. A series intently fascinated with books and literature makes its inspiration well known from the outset, as Joe peruses a stack of Agatha Christie novels, searching for a formula that will help him find out who the "you" is. Of course, his life never stays quiet, and after one drunken night out with members of the upper class and a mysterious death, Joe is involved in a new crime spree and is drawn to yet another woman, icy Kate (Charlotte Ritchie, "Call the Midwife"). And in its fourth season, "You" is beginning to turn from sinister to soap opera. It might as well hit the audience over the head with a copy of "The Mousetrap."

Is Jenna Ortega in You season 4 part 1? (Spoilers) (Netflix Life)

Among the new characters who entered his orbit were his new neighbors, Delilah Alves and her younger sister Ellie. Joe ends up taking a liking to Ellie, who ...

And with Joe faking his death in the season 3 finale, it’s unclear whether Joe is still finding a way to get money to her. And it seems to be working in the first five episodes of the season, at least for the most part. In fact, there is not even any direct mention of Ellie within the first five episodes of season 4 which isn’t too surprising. Love’s plan is to then use her family’s lawyers to help get the case closed which would still leave Ellie stuck in Child Protective Services. Upon arriving in LA, Joe assumed a new identity and began to make a new life for himself. Among the show’s many breakout characters was Ellie Alves played by the amazingly talented Jenna Ortega, who became a true standout in the show’s second season.

'You' Season 4 Episode 1 Recap: The Teacher Becomes the Student (Collider.com)

Season 4 of You is finally available on Netflix, bringing Penn Badgley back as the charming serial killer Joe Goldberg. And since no season of You can be ...

Although he doesn’t appreciate the company, Joe shares the evening with Malcolm and his rich friends, drinking to the point of total blackout. But seeing how Joe disposed of the body, the real killer is now intrigued and wants to know more about the professor. Joe didn’t kill Malcolm, and the culprit is probably one of the wealthy people Joe met the night before since the killer followed them after the party. To show how grateful he is to Jonathan for saving Kate from the robbers, Malcolm drags his colleague to Sundry House, a nightclub for the wealthy. After the assault, Joe asks Kate not to mention him to the police since his working visa is shaky. Bored by his mundane life, Joe is attracted to Kate and gives into his obsession by researching more about the woman. Due to his white knight complex, Joe intervenes and saves Kate from the criminals. Also, Joe is asked to get rid of Marienne, the only person that knows he’s alive. That’s because, for Season 4, Joe uses the identity of Jonathan Moore to score a job as a literature professor in a college in London. Freed from his marital ties, Joe decides to go to Europe, where Marienne goes with her daughter Juliette (Dallas Skye) to escape the killer after learning about his true nature. After staging his death, Joe goes to Paris to search for Marianne. And since no season of You can be like the previous one, the series is once again taking us to uncharted territories by giving Joe a new identity and carrying him across the ocean.

In the second half of the season, we can probably expect Joe/Jonathan to be on the hunt to stop the assailant, but it probably won’t be easy—and it will almost certainly be bloody. So instead of keeping audiences waiting even longer, they released the first seven episodes as volume 1, which ended with a “such satisfying breaking point and pay-off moment, that it’ll keep people fed for enough weeks so we can finish up volume 2.” For Stranger Things, the reason was that the entire fourth season was simply not ready to be released at once, producer Shawn Levy Part 1 (episodes 1-5) are already streaming as of February 9, while part 2 (episodes 6-10) begins streaming on March 9. It may seem like a bummer but perhaps think of it this way: You’ve already waited more than a year since the This season of You feels tonally different from the others, mostly because of the London setting, the posh academia aesthetic, and those bougie British accents; but the show seems to deliver a sharper critique of the upper class than it has before.

He also claims that "Heartbreak is always a catalyst for a new path" — one that we'll see unravel in season four of You. Joe cleans up the crime scene and plants evidence to frame Love for all the killings that ensued throughout the season, including the murder of his neighbors, Natalie and Gil. If that wasn't disturbing enough, he cut his own toes off to make a meat pie and fake his death for a clean slate (which he also frames Love for). After marrying and having a baby boy with Love Quinn (a.k.a his victim in season two), Joe moves to the suburban neighborhood of Madre Linda. After killing Marienne's boyfriend, Ryan, to get him out of the picture for good, Joe's plans to run away with her go awry when his wife finds out and attempts to poison him. The new season of You hits Netflix on Thursday, February 9, which means Joe Goldberg is about to wreak havoc on our TV screens yet again.

He's introduced to this innocuous world through fellow professor Malcolm (Stephen Hagan) but when something tragic happens in the season's first episode, Joe must find his feet in the group, while also figuring out who's a cold-blooded killer. With Joe's life dominated by thoughts of paranoia and suspicion, it feels like a comeuppance in a way – he can finally get a taste of what the women in previous seasons have felt. Like any good whodunnit, he has to suss out the clues, the backstories and lives of his counterparts, all with the threat of his true identity being revealed. But it's the fact that on top of being set and filmed in an entirely new location, the series itself feels like it's finally been given a new lease of life.

As Charlotte Ritchie stars in Season 4 of You, don't miss these highlights from her other TV and film roles, from Grantchester to Ghosts, Doctor Who and ...

[Ghosts](https://www.denofgeek.com/ghosts/), it’s Charlotte Ritchie. Highlights include her ingenious attempt to [trap a rat](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KqQ-pYfaFQ) and, as you can see above, crawling and scurrying around a golf course like a delighted cat for hours on end. It’s a particularly chilling episode thanks to [Ritchie’s nuanced, deceitful and resourceful](https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/doctor-who-series-11-resolution-review/) character, who continues fighting against the Daleks’ control as they force her to do increasingly evil and destructive things. Her stint as a contestant on Series 11 of Taskmaster was an utterly joyous dose of pure chaos, and despite For a certain slightly older generation, Charlotte Ritchie will always be midwife Barbara, one of the most beloved characters in Call The Midwife’s long history. Charlotte Ritchie is brilliantly sharp and wry as Alison, the friend who tries to lure the other two away from the game to actually participate in the real world every now and then, and there are also excellent guest appearances from the likes of Starstruck’s Rose Matafeo. For a certain generation, Charlotte Ritchie will always be Oregon, the naive, hopeless student trying to hide her privileged background from her rebellious new best friend Vod in hit university-based comedy-drama Fresh Meat. Her character Alison is the glue that holds the entire concept together: her accident in episode one means she’s the only human who can see and interact with the hilarious family of ghosts that inhabit Button House, her newly inherited home. Charlotte Ritchie joined the cast in Series 7 last year as Bonnie, a widow who becomes one of the vicar’s love interests, beginning a tempestuous romance which is a pleasing distraction from the fact that this tiny Cambridgeshire village seems to attract a wildly disproportionate number of murders. If you’re new to You, it’s the story of bookshop manager Joe Goldberg, who has a pathological tendency to develop dangerous infatuations with women, which usually end in lots of bloodshed and/or a prolonged stay in a plexiglass book vault. And in Season 4, Charlotte Ritchie gets the unenviable honour of playing the latest obsession of creepy-yet-handsome, ‘I just can’t help falling in love with (and then probably killing) you’ Joe, aka Penn Badgley. This award-winning Channel 4/Netflix comedy drama is a semi-autobiographical work by Mae Martin, who stars as themself, alongside Charlotte Ritchie as their girlfriend George.

You Season 4 Part 1 Ending Explained: Who is Joe's Stalker? (Den of Geek)

Joe Goldberg returns for another rousing game of cat-and-mouse on You Season 4 — only this time, he's the mouse.

Eventually, Joe is shocked to find that Rhys is both his stalker as well as the killer. That’s not going away anytime soon.) And now that Rhys has his number, he’s ready to deliver a dose of Joe Goldberg justice. Once he’s back in London, the news is aflutter with the news of the latest killing … There’s never been such a disconnect in the way that Joe presents himself to the outside world and what he’s really thinking in the innermost reaches of his devious brain. Thanks to his star pupil Nadia, Joe has already read “Good Man, Cruel World,” Rhys’s captivating memoir of how he went from rags to riches, pulling himself out of a childhood of trauma and poverty and ending up in the company of high society. Under the principle of Chekov’s gun — a gun in the first act will resurface by the third — it seems that Marianne will somehow come into play later in the season. Why the detective accepted a simple image of a locket as proof of her murder is perplexing, but whatever. The first half of the season establishes the cat-and-mouse game between Joe and his stalker, even revealing the man behind the shady, disappearing texts in the final few moments of the Part 1 finale. Joe’s focus immediately shifts as he scrambles to try and figure out who is stalking him, why, and what they have planned for him in the long run. When we first check in with Joe, he’s living a pretty normal life, working as a professor of literature and spending his nights curled up with a book and a cuppa in his fancy flat. It’s a delightful twist that upends the typical You narrative, putting Joe Goldberg on the defensive instead of the offensive. [You](https://www.denofgeek.com/you/), Joe (Penn Badgley) finds himself on the other side of the Atlantic.

Before leaving, Rhys kicks an open-flame lantern and sets the creepy cellar up in flames, but Joe and Roald manage to escape and return to London with the others. We can guess that the reason Rhys is killing his “friends” is because he legitimately *hates* them, but his true motive is undisclosed. Joe stops him but is then knocked out and chained in a medieval-style dungeon by Rhys Montrose — author, potential London mayoral candidate, and the true “Eat the Rich” killer. [Desperate to let go of his past](https://www.seventeen.com/celebrity/movies-tv/a42733183/how-beck-died-you-netflix/) and avoid the (many) mistakes he made, Joe — sorry, Jonathan — tries to have a “quiet European holiday.” But then he meets his coworker, Malcolm, and begrudgingly falls in with a group of super-wealthy friends from Oxford who now dominate London’s social scene. Rhys wants Joe to kill Roald, so he can frame him for the murders of Malcolm, Simon, and Gemma. Naturally (because this is You we’re talking about) Malcolm ends up dead, knife straight through the heart, in the premiere episode of season 4, part 1.

So, Rhys is trying to make Joe more comfortable with the idea of taking Roald’s life, especially after the Oxford circle showed their true colors during their weekend getaway. Season 4 is all about how rich people are just the worst, and the location Rhys chooses to play his mind games with Joe underlines this theme. From the first episode of You Season 4, we learn that a serial killer is on the loose in London. Unfortunately, the real Eat-the-Rich Killer is nearby, knocks Joe down, and drags him into a nightmarish trap. In the case of Season 4 of You, it’s only in Episode 5 that we see the story transform from a murder mystery into something darker. [You](https://collider.com/tag/you/) work as a psychological thriller in which we see the world through the eyes of an obsessive killer, every season has a turning point where Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) finds himself in the middle of a horror movie.

I was going to ask about The White Lotus because of Lukas Gage. And I was like, "That guy from White Lotus!" When I got the part, I had a meeting with Sera Gamble, our showrunner; John Scott, our director; and some of the other writers. There's another socialite in England who passed away a few years ago named Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, and I got a lot of inspiration from her and her talk show appearances. But in London, more so in the '90s, there was this culture in the tabloids about our royal family and the people associated with them. But there was a caveat of her being lovely and genuine. So I thought she was safe. The series does a really good job of creating very unlikeable characters or making you love a character and killing them off. I enjoyed playing the upper-class-removed-from-reality character and poking fun at it.

Speaking on "Podcrushed," the Joe Goldberg actor said his marriage to Domino Kirke factored into his decision to stop stripping off on camera.

She was sort of almost, I want to say empowered, she had a really positive response," he recalled. "Fidelity in every relationship, including my marriage, is important to me," he explained. "I signed this contract. I signed up for this show. You can't take this aspect out of the DNA of the concept," Badgely said. The couple, who wed in 2017, have one child together, a son named James, 2.

Netflix's 'You' Season 4 Review: Penn Badgley Returns as Joe (StyleCaster)

Here's a review of Netflix's "You" season four and Penn Badgley's loveable serial killer, Joe.

But the fact is that Joe has always wanted to be seen. Joe is not the pauper. The audience knows he’s at fault; the audience knows of his corroboration and his weaseling out of binds. The real story is how Joe is the catalyst in his own narrative. For allowing him to always narrate his way out of the accountability and the lives he so needs to pay for. The Ghostface of the squad, known as the ‘Eat the Rich Killer,’ begins to play a cat-and-mouse game with Joe. Once the robbery is in place, Joe convinces himself into helping on the behalf of his helpful nature instead of his curiosity. It’s about who Joe truly is and what he’s capable of once he’s no longer hiding. As the destination to rekindling his relationship with Marienne plummets, he seems to have grown—or yearned for the ability to be seen as more than just the k-word. Some say it’ll lead to a holiday across Paris and the sights of London. Love reveals herself to be exactly what Joe swears he isn’t: a killer. Others say it may lead to a burial of miscellaneous bones.

Before 'You' Season 4, Charlotte Ritchie Made Her Mark in 'Call the ... (Collider.com)

Charlotte Ritchie may be the standout in the new season of You, but her real breakthrough role was in the period drama, Call the Midwife.

Much to the grief of Tom and her colleagues, Barbara succumbs to her illness, in a heartbreaking end to the season. As such, Barbara’s death had a huge, long-running impact on the continuing characters, where Ritchie’s legacy continues even in the show’s present season. This caused some animosity towards Barbara and Ritchie, where some of the show’s characters, as well as the viewers, resented their new relationship. This is quickly followed by a flourishing of her nursing talents, where one episode features Barbara aiding in the delivery of three healthy babies in one day. Ritchie’s heartfelt performance as Barbara resonated with audiences from her very first appearance, and she quickly cemented herself as a fan-favorite. The show is set in the poverty-stricken London East End of the late '50s and '60s, and follows a group of midwives and nuns who work within their local community to deliver vital medical care and support.

So with Joe not having the cleanest record and Rhys' vendetta against him as strong as ever, Rhys is sitting on a giant opportunity to frame Joe as the "true" puppet-master — which might be a good thing, as we'd finally get to see Joe dealing with Joe and his friends manage to escape despite their countryside vacation ending on a nicely smoked note, but Rhys is nowhere near done with his mission. Rhys is rationalizing his killings as a small footprint in his larger fight against the elite to make London a better place to live in. The man, the myth, and the legend behind all of this season's eat-the-rich themed killings, and the first person to outwit Joe in his own game (so far). But Rhys is not the man in his memoir. We first hear of Rhys when one of Joe's students, Nadia (Amy-Leigh Hickman), recommends his memoir and gives Joe her copy.
