    The cast comes across as natural, even in their stereotypical roles. The dialogue is similarly fluid and representative of the kind of conversations that would happen in these circumstances.

    Over five episodes, half of the entire run of Tell Me Lies, it felt like we were only barely getting to the beginning of the main story. ... The result is a narrow show that finds plenty of individual messy moments to get caught up in, but lacks the depth needed to keep you engaged beyond that.

    A good show that feels like a cross between Euphoria (with college kids) and The Sex Lives Of College Girls, but with different charactersA good show that feels like a cross between Euphoria (with college kids) and The Sex Lives Of College Girls, but with different characters lying at different times and with varying degrees of severity- It’s not as ambitious as Euphoria or as funny as The Sex Lives of College Girls, but its not supposed to be- However, it’s got a few twists and surprises by the end. It’s worth watching. Good acting. Decent drama. Lots of intimate scenes.… Full Review »
