The moment we've been waiting for finally came this week. After an agonizing countdown, You season 2 dropped on Netflix in what was probably the best belated Christmas gift we could have asked for - leaving many fans in a full-blown Joe Goldberg induced frenzy.
As viewers sink their teeth into the new offering, it seems they're absolutely delighted with just about everything - except for that totally gruesome meat grinder scene...
But if that wasn't enough, well it would appear the Penn Badgley just accidentally revealed plans for season three.
Keep scrolling to learn all the goss.
Netflix's You hit our screens on December 26th of last year.
Perfect for those in the post-Christmas slump, the psychological thriller followed the ill-fated romantic pursuits of a terrifying sociopath, named Joe.It was based on the 2014 novel of the same name by Caroline Kepnes.
In the series, Jow becomes absolutely obsessed with a writing student and all-around Millenial cliche named Guinevere Beck, stopping at nothing to gain her affections.Some of Joe's actions are pretty questionable.
And by questionable, we mean terrifying. What starts with him intensely investigating Beck's social media accounts quickly descends into some full-blown stalking. The girl seriously needed to invest in some curtains.And it got worse...
By the end of series one, not only were all of Beck's closest acquaintances murdered but (spoiler alert), Beck had to go too. She simply knew too much about Joe's horrifying habits.Because you can't get away with this stuff forever, right?
Although (worryingly enough), Joe seems to have managed to go on a full-blown killing spree without consequences - and there was an even more bizarre reaction to his behavior.Because in spite of the fact Joe Goldberg was a stalker and murderer?

But one thing is for certain.
Joe's going to be unable to outrun his past for too long. You can take the man away from stalking, but you can't take the stalker out of the man, after all.The second series of You is based on Kepnes' follow up book.
The second book, called Hidden Bodies, came out in 2016 - so if you really can't wait to find out what terrible things Joe will do next, you can read it now and reveal all.But it's safe to say fans of series one are in for a treat.
"Joe is always trying to be a good guy but yet somehow he's finding himself in these thriller, horror kind of situations. It's terrible for him but I think it's going to be so much fun for the audience," Gamble says.But that's not all.
Gamble has promised a scene in season 2 which will make the entirety of season one seem like easy watching. Keep scrolling to catch a glimpse of the trailer.It's clear Gamble enjoyed making the second series.
"Episode two of the season has my single favorite shot that I have been a part of in my entire career," she teases.But it's not for the faint of heart.
If you're into truly shocking television, it sounds like You season two will be right up your street. "My career is full of blood and gore and monsters," Gamble explains.It's safe to say everyone is excited to get creeped out by Joe once again.

"Joe is always trying to be a good guy but yet somehow he's finding himself in these thriller, horror kind of situations. It's terrible for him but I think it's going to be so much fun for the audience."Though it sounds like there's one scene, in particular, to look out for.

So what happens in You?
Well, in the second episode of season two, after stealing Will's identity Joe finds himself in a spot of bother over some debt he's inherited with his new persona. When he was alive, Will owed a man called Jasper a fair bit of cash, and Jasper ends up cutting the tip of Joe's finger off as a threat. Unfortunately for Jasper, Joe doesn't have that kind of money so instead of paying him off he murders him before placing his corpse through the barbarism of a meat grinder.That's not how I want to go!
Ok so I'm watching the second season of You, and I'm on the second episode and Joe just cut up Jasper, and they act… https://t.co/BLT3VvgOUn— Pips:)🌊☀️ (@Pips:)🌊☀️)1577594775.0

She doesn't appear to be the same kind of person. She doesn't appear to be the same kind of predator. She doesn't appear to be the same kind of... you know, dare I say, in the third season - oh, god!
Then he realized his mistake.
I literally know nothing about the third season.The reporter then asked: "Are we going to get a third season?" To which Badgley nodded and said:
Technically I can't... I mean, like, unofficially?
Christmas just got even better!
