Whether the series is turning its lens inward or zooming out, it remains committed to wading into gray areas and creating a space free of judgment or moralizing. There are no easy answers here, but like a good student, Tell Me Lies is willing to put in the work to search for them.

To be honest, there’s a lot I genuinely dislike about this show. .... And yet, the show is also undeniably addictive; the characters and their behaviors might be unlikeable, but with new lies and mysteries unfolding in every episode, there’s just enough there to get you to binge the whole thing.
