Season 1 Review: While it does get a little bogged down under its many subplots — and the cliffhanger ending feels almost like it was tacked on from one of the showrunners’ previous shows — it’s still a fun series, quick to binge and easy to digest, culminating in a sweeping bittersweet finale that will leave viewers emotionally satisfied, and maybe even in tears.

Season 1 Review: Intricate and beautifully woven, “We Were Liars” is a twisted and compelling series about family, entitlement and consequences. Though the final two episodes aren’t as powerful as they could have been, the show is still worth the ride. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Nearly everything comes together to deliver such a powerful, beautiful, and perfectly brutal gut punch that will not let you forget this show for weeks afterward. In short, while the execution could have been better, the story is quite interesting. Read full review
