'The biggest reason why this is the best season of 'You' yet is because it’s finally leaning into the fact that its serial killer lead is actually really hot,' blevitt93 writes.

with a video of him opening his door to face his own self dressed as Joe, soundtracked to the Taylor Swift song “Anti-Hero.” What was a very funny video was actually a hint—Joe is no longer a vicious demented killer. Now he’s an anti-hero. Simping for a sadistic killer? Decidedly unsexy. Having the hots for an anti-hero? Now we’re talking.

After the events of Season 3, Joe, presumed dead, has made his way to London, where he’s assumed the identity of Jonathan Moore. He now teaches literature at a British university. He may be Jonathan to his new acquaintances , but he’ll always be Joe to us, so I’ll continue to refer to him that way.But here’s the big difference in this season’s plot: Joe is no longer the killer. This time it’s someone dubbed as the “Eat the Rich” killer.

One of Joe’s most troubling characteristics has been how he manages his relationships with women. This time, things are different. Joe has been a creepy stalker, slowly but surely convincing women that they should very much be in love with him. This time around the women are throwing themselves at Joe. Stripped of his killer status, Joe finds himself having to practically keep the women at bay with a bat. The key difference here is that Joe isn’t doing any pursuing whatsoever.

Because Joe isn’t bloodthirsty this time around, his interactions with women are charming, sometimes even heartwarming. He’s always been something of an intellectual, particularly regarding his passion for literature. In previous seasons, he used this interest to help manipulate and murder women. This time around, he’s a professor, and it’s a perfect avenue for Joe to use his wisdom for good.

Another way the show gets us to actively root for Joe is through its portrayal of everyone else on screen.has dealt with annoying socialites and suburbanites before, but they’ve never had the kind of obscene wealth and power that the people Joe’s surrounded himself with now. And wow, this show really hates rich people. Joe’s new circle is full of people that haven’t worked a day in their lives, complaining about how they are inconvenienced by those with less.
