TLDR
Close enough, welcome back, Pretty Little Liars.
What it's about
What starts as a college fling between Lucy (Grace Van Patten) and Stephen (Jackson White) quickly evolves into a intoxicating (and toxic) yearslong relationship.
The take
Tell Me Lies is a soapy college drama, but it’s a soapy college drama done right. It’s steamy and realistic (apart from the fact that no one seems to really be studying), capturing that moment in your life when you start freely exploring your identity and sexuality. As in most melodramas, it’s the mess and the titular lies that make the series exciting to watch, but it ultimately doesn’t hold enough substance to keep you engaged beyond that. It’s spicy candy—hot and exciting when consumed, but it’s neither nourishing nor filling. No harm in taking a bite though.
What stands out
Whenever people complain about shows not being sexy anymore, just show them any episode of this to debunk them.
