YOU (2018) You is a show about a bookstore manager named Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) who becomes obsessed with a female writer named Beck (Elizabeth Lail) who he meets after she enters the bookstore. The awkward love story quickly turns sinister as he becomes obsessed with her. The show is rated TV-MA and is not suitable for teens under 17. This show is insane and very nerve-racking, but it is an amazing show nonetheless.

GRAND ARMY (2020) Grand Army is a show that follows the lives of 5 high school students and their fight to succeed, survive, break free, and seize the future in a chaotic world. The show is rated 18+ and is not recommended for younger audiences. This show is definitely one of the best shows I’ve ever watched.
