Shows like YOU on Netflix don’t come around often. This is the type of show that leaves viewers on the edge of their seats because it is so intense and interesting to watch. The show is about a handsome young man who finds himself falling head over heels in love with young women. He doesn’t just stalk them from afar though… He falls in love with them and enters into romantic relationships with them until they feel they can trust him. The show is classified as a thriller and so far has released two seasons.
Fans of YOU are impatiently awaiting the third season of the show! Another interesting note about YOU is the fact that it is constantly being compared to Penn Badgley’s other show, Gossip Girl!
15 GuinevereBeck– Normal College Girl Who Fell For The Wrong Guy
Beck is definitely the most normal character from Netflix's YOU. She was a normal college student who found love with the wrong guy. She did not know that she was entering into a relationship with a stalker. She had a lot of the same patterns that normal college girls have in their lives and so for that, we can’t judge her. Beck is super relatable and played by Elizabeth Lail.
14 Ellie Alves– Precocious Teenager, Mature For Her Age
Ellie is another supernormal character from YOU. She is one of Joe’s neighbors and she is super inquisitive about the world around her. On top of that, she is super intelligent and she knows a lot about life even though she is only 15 years old. She is a character that is very mature for her age.
13 Delilah Alves– A Responsible Older Sister
Unfortunately, the character of Delilah was murdered in season 2 of YOU. Before she was murdered, she was one of the more normal characters from the show. She was a little bit reckless in terms of the fact that she was comfortable hooking up with Joe outside (which landed them both in jail) but other than that she was a good girl!
12 Karen Minty– One Of Joe’s Ex-Girlfriends That He Didn’t Obsess Over
Karen Minty is another very normal character from YOU. She was one of Joe’s girlfriends and for some reason, he didn’t go absolutely crazy over her or get super obsessed. He sort of used Karen as a rebound to not think about Beck and because of that, he wasn’t too obsessive or enticed by Karen.
11 Ethan– Hardworking Bookstore Employee
Ethan is a truly normal character from YOU! All he does is show up to work every day at the bookstore and do his job. He is a good friend to Joe, sometimes offering gentle advice and always being there to cover hours… Even when those hours are not convenient for him. Overall, he is a good guy.
10 Paco– Joe’s Young Neighbor Who’s Been Through A Lot
Paco lived right next door to Joe and the only thing that keeps Paco from being closer to the "normal" side of our list is the fact that he left Beck locked up in the bookstore when he could have let her out. Even though he misunderstood the situation, he closed the door on her instead of helping her escape– which was not okay.
9 Dr. Nicky– Therapist Who Hooks Up With His Vulnerable Patients
Dr. Nicky would be considered a more normal character from YOU if it weren’t for the fact that he was hooking up with his patients. He hooked up with Beck knowing that she was a vulnerable young woman who is seeking professional counseling. He took advantage of her which takes away from his credibility. He is played by the super handsome John Stamos.
8 Candace Stone– Joe’s Ex-Girlfriend Who Played Into His Games
Candace Stone went from being one of Joe’s victims to playing along in a game of vindictive secrets and lies. She pretended to be someone else in order to try to take down Joe by entering a relationship with Forty Quinn instead of just going to the police. She ended up getting murdered for this very reason.
7 Forty Quinn– Eccentric, Over-The-Top, And A Bit Of An Oddball
Forty Quinn is one of the more likable characters from YOU but that doesn’t mean he is necessarily normal. He drugged Joe in season 2, sending them both on a drug-infused bender that Joe couldn’t even remember the following morning. Forty Quinn has a good heart but he can be kind of erratic.
6 Peach Salinger– Cool... Except For Her Creepy Crush On Beck
Peach Salinger was a likable character but the fact that she was slightly stalking Beck in her own way makes her creepy. She led Beck to believe that they were platonic friends but in reality, she was hiding a massive crush on Beck and keeping pictures of Beck on her phone that were... less than appropriate. She also crept on Beck during bathtime... weird!
