\"You\" showrunner Sara Gamble told Entertainment Weekly about Pedretti's character.

\"Like her name, she’s very warm and there is a carefree aspect to her spirit that really comes from the fact that she has constructed a life for herself that’s about being in the moment and doing what she loves every day,\" she said.

\"She’s very very different than the woman that you got to know in season one, Beck, who was ambitious and driven as a writer and also as a young person in a social circle that had a certain kind of status,\" she continued. \"Beck had been quite aware of her social media presence, and Love is extremely disinterested in all of that.\"

Another change you should expect in the second season? Goldberg will move to Los Angeles from home in New York City.

\"He’s a New Yorker and he has bought the party line on how terrible L.A. is and when he gets here, very little dissuades him from his initial opinion,\" Gamble told EW.

\"This show is an opportunity to illuminate an L.A. that maybe a lot of people haven’t seen that goes beyond the Hollywood sign and Love is part of that,\" she continued. \"She’s a Los Angeles native. She has really absorbed the best of the city and she’s really artistic with the way that she lives her life.”

The drama, originally a Lifetime series before it hit Netflix in Dec. in the United States, has received a lot of buzz from viewers since its premiere.

The 10-episode first season generated large streaming numbers. Netflix estimated in its quarterly earnings report that the thriller would be watched by more than 40 million member households in its first four weeks on the streaming service.
