Given how popular You is, there is no doubt that a season 3 would come eventually.
So let us do a quick recap on what happened onYou: For quite some time, the show and actors had given us the false pretense that Joe had killed his ex-girlfriend Candace Stone (Ambyr Childers) — which is a totally fair assumptions for the particular behaviour he is showing in the show.
In the second chapter of the movie, when the protagonist was presenting himself as Will Bettelheim, he had not only fled from Candace but also tried to kill his girlfriend Guinever Beck, which was played by Elizabeth Lail and her best friend in the movie, Peach Salinger, played by Shay Mitchell.
Joe/Will also got himself a new job at another book shop. He was on a mission to seemingly try to prove that he never killed someone and hoping that he could redeem himself. This mission has a lot to do with how he had set sights on a new love interest on another girl, Love Quinn.
But this is where it gets interesting. The show had revealed a shocking twist which turned the movie on its heels, having Love turned out to be worse than Joe. With her great love for the show’s lead, she was planning on murdering Candace and Delilah to save her relationship.
Enough with the recaps. So what will we be expecting in season 3? Would they still continue the hype and get us going? Let us see.

We were actually given some answers already in season two of You – such as what did really happen between Joe and Candace and why Candace said that she had an “unfinished business” with Joe – we were also left with mountains of questions that needed answering.
Like what we stated, it was Love who killed Delilah, Joe’s neighbor and his ex-girlfriend, Candace.
In one big event, the whole concept of the show had been turned upside down. Joe was put in the perspex box – the very same situation that he had put Beck at the last episodes of season one. Surprising? Yes. Revolting? Absolutely.
If you can still remember the last episodes of season two, Joe revealed that he had already had his ‘slate wiped clean’ by the “Quinn Machine”, where in such, he let himself off the hook for the crimes he had committed.
In an interview with Caroline Kepnes by Entertainment Weekly, she stated some teasers on what really lies in store in her next book, which will undoubtedly affect the show in such a way. She stated, “Joe is really proud of himself because a lot of people in his position descend into darkness after having been through what he’s gone through in book two and then in the beginning of book three,” and she also said that, “he decides that he’s going to be a better person and he’s very proud of himself for that.”
In another interview under Entertainment Weekly, Patrick Gamble who also manages the show stated that he also has “so many questions about Love’s mother who’s incredibly in the picture at the end of the season, like how much she really knows about her children”.
With this statement, we can already smell a glimpse, or a hint that for the upcoming season and episodes of it, we will be seeing more and more of her.
However, despite getting up on his feet again, Sera Gamble however stated that there is a point where Joe’s luck would then run out. “The most important thing about that last scene is just it is confirmation that Joe is still Joe in a way that is not going to be great for Joe.” In fact, she stated that Joe has not yet learned to stop looking for another person to cling on his hopes and dreams. She said that in season three, “things won’t go well for Joe.”
Where will Season Three be set?
In season 2, the show had moved to LA which Penn Badgely had stated had a huge effect on the show. In an interview with Penn with Digital Spy and a couple of other media, he said that he remembers this kind of question with Greg Berlanti. According to Greg, the show can be set anywhere anytime, and the show would still work. He said that he can set the show in Hawaii and it would work.
Badgely even slipped and said “Maybe that will happen in the fourth season? I’ll keep my fingers crossed”
Hmmm, fourth season you say?
Where can I watch You Season 3?
If you’re referring to what app or what channel, well basically, since you can watch You season 1 and 2 on netflix, then You season 3 will definitely be on netflix also.
And if you can’t find any trailer regarding the show, that is because the movie hasn’t been decided on what date to be released, and if you haven’t been informed, trailers usually go out a month before the movie premiere, so once you know the date, you’ll have better knowledge about it.
