Netflix has everybody thinking…what would YOU do for love?

 By Wilson Martinez-Godoy

You is streaming now on Netflix. It is a thriller enjoyed by many of Netflix’s users. Starring Penn Badgley as the main character, Joe Goldberg. A young bookstore manager with a strong passion for love. Every season, he never fails to disappoint in his womanizer endeavors. With the new season comes new additions to the cast such as Tati Gabrielle, Dylan Arnold, and Shalita Grant. The new season has everyone stoked!

Leaving season 2 with Joe Goldberg as a newlywed, marrying pregnant Love Quinn, and moving into Madre Linda. Your typical nice suburban neighborhood in California. Love Quinn has many questioning if their partner's love is enough. For love and the safety of their marriage, she decides to take care of a little threat that lives next door. This led the couple to seek therapy. Therapy helped, but it occurred again and again. Joe Goldberg was tired and found himself beginning to feel for someone else. Love Quinn was no longer his priority, it now shifted to another woman he met at the bookstore. He tried his best to keep his marriage stable until the day he dreamed of came where Love Quinn would no longer form part of the equation so he and Marienne could live happily together with their children. Joe Goldberg also discovers he has “mommy issues” , and that's why he is attracted to certain people. Unfortunately for Joe, Love is just as smart as him, and she finds out what has been going on in Joe’s mind. At the end of the season we find out Joe was able to outsmart Love, however, we still have more to see in the next season to air, only on Netflix. 

YOU is a great show, however, it does get graphic, so if one is sensitive to graphic content the show may not be enjoyable. Not appropriate for young children, this show has mature content. It is very intense, and the show takes turns quickly. An open mind is necessary in order to understand Joe Goldberg’s thinking, and not just dismiss him as lunatic and sick. Definitely one of Netflix's top projects, this show has made an appearance across social media platforms with memes and people speaking on the show. Netflix did not go wrong with this one.

 Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, mostly known as Bad Bunny or El Conejo Malo, helped bring reggaeton and trap music to a wider audience. His urban music style also incorporated other genres, including rock, punk, and soul, born in Almirante Sur, Puerto Rico on March 10, 1994. Bad Bunny is one of the biggest stars in the world right now. Ever since the singer and rapper first started releasing music in 2016, he’s dominated the charts and stolen hearts worldwide. 

 His dad was a truck driver and his mother was a school teacher. He named himself Bad Bunny after a time when he was made to wear a bunny costume to school as a child and was photographed looking angry and upset.  Bunny makes history as the artist with the most entries since the chart began in 1986, with 117. Out of those, 44 hit the top 10, and nine topped the chart. “Dakiti” has led for a total of 27 weeks, the fourth-longest after “Despacito” (56 weeks), “Bailando”  and “El Perdón”. “Te Bote” by Casper Magico, Nio Garcia, Darell, Nicky Jam, Ozuna, and Bad Bunny hit No. 1 on May 26, 2018.

What’s So Good About CRIMINAL MINDS?

 By: Kalia Lefevre, Entertainment Reporter, January 24, 2022

 

The show Criminal Minds is an American crime drama series on the CBS Network that premiered on September 22, 2005, and ended on February 19, 2020. It was produced by Mark Gordon in association with CBS Television Studios and ABC Studios. The series follows a group of criminal profilers who work for the FBI as members of the Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU) In Quantico, Virginia, It’s a police procedural drama that differs from many procedural dramas by focusing on the victims and the criminal rather than the crime itself.  The BAU analyzes the country's most twisted criminal minds in an effort to anticipate their next moves before they strike again. Each team member brings his or her own area of expertise to the table as they pinpoint predators motivations and identify their emotional triggers in the attempt to stop them.

     

On the show, they have good plots about the victims, main characters, and the cases themselves. They talk about murder cases, and some of the cases in the series are based on the use of actual killers and other criminals. It can get really graphic and is not suited for younger kids, it is meant for older teens and adults. It is a really great show for anyone who is interested and wants to study criminal justice, forensics, and the psychology of forensics. The characters make the series even greater, for example, Spencer Reid, he’s the main character and an SSA (Supervisory Special Agent) with the BAU on the show. He's a very unique character not just on the show, but on any series like it. He uses his individual skills to track down the unsubs, with an IQ of 187,  can read 20,000 words per minute with an eidetic memory. He is the youngest member of the FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), has three BAs and three PhDs (in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Engineering), specializing in statistics and geographic profiling, and that’s what people love about him. The characters have a story that talks about their families, mental health, their past, and their lives outside of the BAU. For example, Emily Prentiss, who worked in the BAU, faked her death, so she can protect herself and her team from a guy named Doyle, who was in a relationship with and worked with, and tried to come after her and the team.  

  

If you want to start to watch the show and learn more about it, it’s on Netflix with 15 seasons. As mentioned earlier, this show is really good for people who are into crime and forensics. If you are bored or have nothing to watch on TV during quarantine, this show will help you be less bored while staying home. Overall, the show is amazing and can be really interesting depending on the season and the episode.
