You is a moderately decent show about a psychopath who will go to any length to win his girl over, and succeeds, but not without cost. For him, her, and everyone around them.
The decent part is mainly about the acting and directing. The show has a creepy atmosphere and the lead actors and actresses are very convincing to a point where they even win the audience over and you might even temporarily care for them. You'll get a view inside a psychopath's acting, feeling and thinking and reasoning. This works for a few episodes, let's say 5 or 6.
Unfortunately, after that, the show goes downhill. First of all, how the psychopath keeps getting away with non stop stalking is ridiculous. 2nd: him, his girl, as well as her girlfriends, get more annoying by the minute. Dialogue, actions, motivation become less and less credible, and become borderline stupidity. Characters become hollow, 2-dimensional and repetitive in their behavior.
And to kill it off, in the end of the show, the stupidity is all that remains. Unless this is your first show ever, you may look in a constant state of surprise at how much stupidity two people can portray, just to keep a situation going on. This seems to hit various series that drag on after all originality has dried up.
score 6/10
