You 5 Things That Changed Since The Pilot (5 That Stayed The Same)

It’s tough to think of a more captivating and addictive show than You. Whether he’s targeting Guinevere Beck (Elizabeth Lail) or Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti), Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) is usually on top of his game. He somehow convinces himself that it’s normal to seduce someone and do literally anything that it takes to get them to stick around.

Joe may be a complicated guy but the majority of fans know that he’s super creepy. No matter what stage of the game he’s at, Joe is a compelling character, and he manages to stay mostly the same while still changing a bit over the course of the two seasons that have been released so far. It’s fascinating exercise to compare the pilot of You to the excellent episodes that came after it.

10 Changed: In The Pilot, Only Candace Knew The Truth About Joe

You 5 Things That Changed Since The Pilot (5 That Stayed The Same)

It’s wild when Candace (Ambyr Childers) shows up at the end of season 1, and she plays a big part in the second season, too. Fans were desperate to learn her true story.

In the pilot, Candace was the only person who knew the truth about Joe. Everyone else saw him as the same charming, sweet, and handsome bookstore employee who had an air of mystery about him. Beck learned the harsh reality about Joe’s true nature before her death, and other people have since also realized that Joe is not to be trusted.

9 Stayed The Same: Joe Is Capable Of Murder

Joe is always capable of murder, and this is something else that has remained the same for both seasons of You.

In the second season, Joe kills stand-up comedian Henderson (Chris D’Elia) and it’s clear that the body count is only going to keep rising as Joe truly has no problem committing these terrible crimes. In season 1, he kills Beck, Beck’s best friend Peach (Shay Mitchell), and Beck’s abusive boyfriend Benji (Lou Taylor Pucci).

8 Changed: Joe Moves From NYC To LA

Whether Joe lives in New York City or Los Angeles, he’s still the same creepy obsessive guy. It’s interesting for fans to see how this location change affects his character development and the main story.

The setting is one major thing that changes between the first episode and the second season. Now it looks like Joe will be sticking around in L.A.

7 Stayed The Same: Joe Always Befriends And Protects A Kid

You 5 Things That Changed Since The Pilot (5 That Stayed The Same)

In both seasons, Joe bonds with a child whom he seeks to protect. He does that in the pilot with the neighbor kid Paco (Luca Padovan) as his mom has an abusive boyfriend. Joe also does it when he moves to Los Angeles and meets Ellie (Jenna Ortega), a teen girl living in his apartment complex.

This seems to be a way that Joe convinces himself that he’s a good person. His train of thought? He does some bad things, sure, but he’s always looking out for those younger and more vulnerable than him.

6 Changed: Forty Genuinely Seems To Like Joe

You 5 Things That Changed Since The Pilot (5 That Stayed The Same)

Joe isn’t one to make fast friends as he tends to enjoy spying on people and pretending to be someone else, but Love’s twin brother Forty (James Scully) seems to actually like him.

Forty is a big contrast to Beck’s best pal Peach, who was suspicious of Joe from the start and engaged in kind of a cat-and-mouse game with him. Forty even enlists Joe to co-write a screenplay (even if he does lock him in a hotel room and act just as creepy as Joe).

5 Stayed The Same: Someone Is Doing Some Detective Work On Joe

You 5 Things That Changed Since The Pilot (5 That Stayed The Same)

Penn Badgley does an incredible job portraying Joe, but the You antihero doesn’t realize how easy it is for people to use the internet and social media. While he hides a lot of things about himself, there’s always a character who is willing to put in some long, hard detective work in order to find out the truth.

In season 1, Beck looks up all that she can about Joe and Candace’s relationship, as she starts to find it pretty fishy. And in the second season, Candace is back, trying to ruin Joe.

4 Changed: In Season 2, Joe Only Dates Love

You 5 Things That Changed Since The Pilot (5 That Stayed The Same)

In the first season, when things don’t work out between Joe and Beck, he dates Karen (Natalie Paul). But in the second season, when Joe and Love break up, he has a brief hookup with Delilah (Carmela Zumbado), though he doesn’t date her or anyone else.

3 Stayed The Same: Joe Traps People In A Type Of Cage

You 5 Things That Changed Since The Pilot (5 That Stayed The Same)

Joe is constantly trapping people in his book cage, and it’s one of his main ways that he controls the situation. It’s also something that he does when he’s in big trouble and is deciding whether he has to get rid of someone.

Whether he’s locking Beck in the cage in the basement of the bookstore or trapping Will (Robin Lord Taylor) in season 2, Joe seems to enjoy doing this, and it’s one of the creepiest things about him.

2 Changed: Love Beat Joe At His Game And Trapped Him

You 5 Things That Changed Since The Pilot (5 That Stayed The Same)

Love Quinn is one of the smartest characters on You and when she tells Joe that she’s pregnant, it’s a crazy twist that no one could have predicted.

She also lets Joe know that she basically forced him to love her and that she had a master plan all along. He can’t believe that she beat him at his own game, and that’s something that no one has been able to do before, so that’s a major change. It’s also true that now Joe is totally trapped as he doesn’t want to bail on Love and their baby. He’s never found himself in this kind of situation before.

1 Stayed The Same: Joe Is Scheming Once Again

Fans are eager to see Love and Joe with a baby and another major season 3 storyline is probably going to be the neighbor that Joe was seen staring at when season 2 came to a close.

Joe is scheming once again, trying to figure out if he can make this mystery woman love him, and that’s something that has stayed the same about him. His plotting will never change because then he wouldn’t be Joe Goldberg.
