The Eagle Reviews: You offers capturing glimpse into a stalker’s mind
I’m always on the lookout for a great show to watch. Sometimes, I go off a recommendation a friend gave me. Other times I hear about a show from the proverbial grapevine and do the digging myself. However, most of the time I find these shows through happy accidents. Such was the case for You.
