I'm honestly not sure how people are enjoying this show. From the creators of a few CW DC shows as well as a tenured CW writer/showrunner of a few seasons of Supernatural comes 'You', a show that had me asking myself why I was still watching nearly every minute and a half I had to pause the first episode.

'You', at least in the first episode, takes the 'Tell not Show' approach, rather than using the visual medium properly. Stilted performance after stilted performance on top of poorly written dialogue permeates every orifice of this boring incoherent mess of an hour. It really is obvious that the show was written for the Lifetime network originally, because it's about on par of what I'd expect from their offerings.

The visuals are primarily shot on anamorphic lenses, with untalented camera assistants missing focus left and right because the Director of Photography decided that being wide open with ND on every shot was a great idea for every situation. Bad visuals on top of an awkward score that has no purpose other than to accentuate the overbearing internal monologue of this show's 'Dennis Reynolds' of Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Do yourself a favor and go watch the pilot episode of Dexter after this and tell me which you found more entertaining. I know which one I'll pick every time.
