"As I step back from day-to-day show running to focus on new projects, I'm immensely grateful to co-creator and all-around genius Greg Berlanti, Caroline Kepnes, my friends at Berlanti Productions and Alloy Entertainment, and our steadfast partners at Warner Bros and Netflix," Gamble said in a statement. "Making the show alongside our writers, producers, directors, cast and crew has been an honor and ridiculously fun. And I feel lucky to have worked with an artist as gifted and thoughtful as Penn Badgely." You Season 4: Penn Badgley Asks Makers of Netflix Series To Have Fewer Intimate Scenes.

"I'm proud of what we've all accomplished and feel privileged to pass the torch. I'm excited to watch and support the You team as they bring Joe Goldberg's journey to its delightfully twisted conclusion." Netflix split season four into two parts, with the first half of its 10-episode season dropping February 9 and the second returning a month later. The thriller hit No. 1 on Netflix's internal charts with the second half of its fourth season, though those numbers fell short of its third cycle.
