Has Tell Me Lies been renewed for season 2? Here’s what we know:

Renewed Or Cancelled?

Tell Me Lies on Hulu aired its much anticipated and shocking finale. The way things have ended is beyond anyone’s expectations. The show had a unique way of feeling viewers very bleak and frustrated. Yet, the demanding nature of the story made sure we kept up with the high-intensity drama unfolding at Baird college. Going by the response and reception, season 1 seems to be a great success. But what next?

If you’ve been following this one, you may be wondering if this has been renewed or canceled. Well, wonder no more! Here’s what we know about a renewal:

What is Tell Me Lies Season 1 about?

Season 1 mostly takes place in the year 2008 and focuses on college students at Baird College. Freshmen Lucy, Pippa, and Bree mingle with a particularly popular senior group. Lucy attracts the attention of Stephen, a mysterious looking senior with a reputation for being “indifferent”.

Their universes collide in explosive fashion but the death of Lucy’s roommate Macy brings forth lies and secrets that these people are not that good at keeping. The season progresses around this group of college-going students who discover their individual paths in life and the changing landscapes of the nature of their relationships.

Has Tell Me Lies been renewed for season 2?

No, not yet. Hulu has not given any confirmation as to a possible second season. Despite the showrunner Meaghan Oppenheimer and cast members – including van Patten and Jackson White – discussing their ideas about season 2, the officials are yet to make a comment. In an exclusive interview with Screen Rant, Grace Van Patten revealed she hadn’t yet heard if she is coming back for Tell Me Lies, although she obviously has high hopes to receive a renewal.

There are certainly a lot of juicy gaps to fill given how season 1 ended on a drastically absurd cliffhanger. We all expected Diana to accompany Stephen in those last minutes but it turned out to be Lydia. The wild twist certainly cannot go unexplained.

As someone who has not read the book, the guess is that those in this category might be wondering the same thing as well. How did Lydia and Stephen even meet? Did Lucy ever reveal Stephen’s secret to the world? From the looks of it, she most probably should have. The frustrating yet irresistible toxicity on display came to a feverish conclusion with the finale. There was no way any of us saw that coming.

One of the best parts for both the viewers and the makers was how season 1 ended. The fashion in which it did allows the entire cast to come back to reprise their roles.

Although it is already very concentrated, new additions cannot be denied. After episode 1 and before episode 10, everything took place in the form of a flashback, and all of the characters, except maybe Drew, made it through to the forward timeline. The probability of a second season happening are extremely strong, despite the mixed response from audiences. Hulu will make a decision in due time, perhaps a couple of weeks from now, as it has with other original series.

Remember, the season was not billed as a limited series, which is a huge positive in its possible renewal journey. All the actors were instantly charming to viewers and became very popular. Given the tone, genre, and setting of season 1, we are quite sure that the series will indeed come back for a season 2. Check back in a couple of weeks to find out!
