    A 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.A 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.

    An intriguing enough show, but it takes itself way too seriously, much like I remember being in college where it is set. There are too many subplots that water down and confuse me to what this story is actually trying to tell me; Is it the car crash plot? Is is the narcissitic relationship? The actors are not believable college students. Am I supposed to care about them?

There are too many subplots that water down and confuse me to what this story is actually trying to tell me; Is it the car crash plot? Is is the narcissitic relationship? The actors are not believable college students. Am I supposed to care about them? The bad/borderline abusive sex makes me cringe. I'm just not sure what I'm watching, but maybe that's the point? It's juicy enough to keep me watching and the actors are pretty, but a lot of the content leaves me confused and honestly angry.… Expand

    While “Tell Me Lies” isn’t as complex as “Normal People,” a fascinating look at similar changes, it does hold interest, particularly since all of the students have plenty of time to dabble in things that don’t require a paper at the end of the term.

    “Tell Me Lies” is at its strongest when it hones in on the thrill and danger of new passions in a new environment. It moves at the pace of a bygone supersized network season, not rushed to hop between major milestones in a campus year and instead living inside the gradual build of new relationships that could be great or terrible (or both).

    It just feels like a whole series full of toxic, near-narcissistic characters that aren’t murdering each other. We don’t want to spend our precious time on earth with people like that in real life, much less filling the cast of a young adult drama.
