Netflix 's You has officially
been renewed for a fifth season, though the streaming platform has also
announced that it will be the final instalment of the popular TV show.
The

stalker Joe Goldberg (played by Penn Badgley ) and other characters who are in
his life
It was confirmed earlier this afternoon that the show will
conclude with its "fifth and final season" next year, with the news coming
shortly after the release of its fourth season.
The news was
announced on social media and a teaser clip showing scenes of the lead
character Joe, before revealing that the show would return once again but
for a final time.
Alongside the clip, the official account for
the show wrote in the caption: "Goodbye... YOU. Joe Goldberg will return for
the fifth and final season of YOU in 2024."
The announcement has disappointed some fans, with one
responding: "I'm crying literally like literal tears are building up in my
eyes". Another said: "I don't want it to end".
A third asked:
"Final season??? How could you do this to us?" Another said: "Not the last
season, nooo, please". A fifth wrote: "Once it ends I'm going through the
stages of grief".
Another reacted: "I am going to miss this show
with all my heart and soul". One fan said: "How am I supposed to live
without YOU?" Another wrote: "Final season? I am literally crying right
now".
"What do you mean final? I need more Joe antics," commented
another fan over the news. Whilst one said: "I'm not ready to say goodbye.
This series is too good".
Some fans described the news as
"bittersweet" and one commented: "So happy that [it's returning] for another
series ... but absolutely gutted it's going to be the final".
Not everyone seemed devastated over it though, with some fans
suggesting that the show has run its course. One person commented: "It is
time to end the show."
Another said in response to the news of
its final season: "I think that's a good choice!" A third wrote: "All good
things must come to an end. Looking forward to next season".
The
announcement comes following the second part of the fourth season having
been released earlier this month. Fans seemed divided over the ending of
that season.
