Here’s When Every Episode of ‘Tell Me Lies’ Drops, Since We Know You're Curious

If the Sally Rooney Regency Era has shown us anything, it’s that toxic love is back, baby. Readers and viewers alike are hungry for stories that feel real, honest, and authentic; which, as seen on the pages of today’s popular YA novels, means complicated, painful, and toxic. These new novels, series, and films toe the line between romanticizing toxic relationships and illuminating them. New phrases have entered the digital lexicon to describe relationship dynamics that are both wildly toxic and painfully common—think, “love bombing” and “breadcrumbing.”

In modern popular romance, our desire to see two lovers find a happy ending has been replaced by a desire to see one (if not both) of our lovers enroll in therapy. Hulu’s latest romance drama, Tell Me Lies, follows suit.

Tell Me Lies stars Nine Perfect Strangers’s Grace Van Patten and Mrs. Fletcher’s Jackson White as college freshmen Lucy Albright and Stephen DeMarco, who find themselves in a “tumultuous but intoxicating relationship as it unfolds over the course of eight years.”

So When Will New Tell Me Lies Episodes Drop?

The first three episodes of Tell Me Lies landed on Hulu this past week on September 7, with new episodes set to release weekly. The series finale will air on October 26, and as far as we can tell, there will be no season 2. Ten hours of toxic is more than enough!

Here is the Tell Me Lies episode schedule, in full:

Tell Me More About the Tell Me Lies Plot Before I Watch

Tell Me Lies is based on a novel of the same name and follows a rocky relationship between the two mains. Their love story is as bitter as it is sweet and more toxic than tender, which is (unfortunately) all too relatable.

“Tell Me Lies is an exploration of toxic relationships and the ways we undermine ourselves when we fall for the wrong people. When Lucy meets Stephen she sees all the red flags, but she ignores them—and it sets her down a path that completely derails her,” said the show’s Executive Producer and Showrunner Meaghan Oppenheimer in conversation with Cosmo.

“I think if we’re honest, most of us have had a relationship that damages us, yet for whatever reason we can’t walk away from it. When you’re in a dynamic that’s mentally or emotionally abusive, you begin to accept treatment that you never thought you would accept. To me, it’s such a universally relatable subject, but we don’t talk openly about it because it feels shameful. That was what I loved about Carola Lovering’s book—she captured that feeling of isolation in such a visceral way. So I’m hoping the show will open up conversations where people can talk about these things without feeling judged. Because most of us have had a Stephen in our lives at some point.”
