Serial obsession and murder mean never having to say you’re sorry.
—that Netflix’s true-crime portraits tend to sentimentalize killers like Jeffrey Dahmer and Ted Bundy. In the shadow of mounting criticism, each new season ofhas emerged less romantic and rose-tinted than the last, suggesting that the showrunners have taken this criticism to heart.But Season 4 goes 10 steps further. It makes a clean break from the romance genre and reluctantly rebrands itself as a whodunit in which Joe takes on a new role: victim.
This latest season may not be completely squeaky clean: Watching women’s windows is still Joe’s favorite pastime and we’re still supposed to empathize with him—to chuckle at his sardonic inner monologue, smile at his earnest dedication to his students, and nod along when he condemns Kate’s frothy, privileged friends. But the show has bent over backward to scrub most of the romanticized gender violence from the script.
