Hulu's Tell Me Lies Fans Accuse Creator of 'Gaslighting' After Finale Reveal

Heartbreak is sweeping the Tell Me Lies fandom after showrunner Meaghan Oppenheimer announced on social media that the Season 3 finale would also serve as the series finale. The unexpected decision prompted accusations of "gaslighting" from some viewers and a wave of upset in the comments.

Over three seasons the show traced a group of college friends on a nonlinear timeline, centering on the toxic dynamic between Lucy Albright (Grace Van Patten) and Stephen DeMarco (Jackson White). The finale erupted into a blowup at Bree (Catherine Missal) and Evan's (Branden Cook) wedding, and some praised Oppenheimer and the creative team for bringing the adaptation of Carola Lovering's 2018 novel to a close.

Others reacted angrily on Oppenheimer’s Instagram post.
