Will There Be A Season 4 of Tell Me Lies On Hulu? Creator Meaghan Oppenheimer Weighs In

Before Tell Me Lies Season 3, Episode 8 premiered, Oppenheimer announced on social media that the Season 3 finale would also serve as the series finale — in other words, Tell Me Lies Season 4 is a no.

“After three amazing seasons of Tell Me Lies, tonight’s episode will be the series finale. This was always the ending my writing team and I had in mind, and we are insanely proud of it,” Oppenheimer wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of the cast.

“Your incredible response to this season inspired us to explore whether there was another organic way to continue the story, but ultimately we felt it had reached its natural conclusion,” the showrunner continued. “My main goal has always been to protect the quality of the show and give you the best experience I can give you. And so, while it is bittersweet to leave something that has been such a happy experience, I am very grateful that we are able to tell a complete story with an intentional ending – a privilege very few shows get. Thank you for loving our show. We are excited to bring you more stories in the near future.”

When Decider asked Oppenheimer if she had a set arc in mind after Season 1, she said, “I think it really just depends. I think most shows nowadays do well with three seasons. I think that’s a very clean, good number to me — especially when it’s something that’s a smaller story, not a big procedural thing. I would rather have something end when it’s good than just drag it out too long.” Ahead of Season 3, the Tell Me Lies creator also told Decider that the finale showed “the ending [she] had mind from the beginning.”

During Decider’s Season 3 finale interview with Oppenheimer, she shared additional insight into the future of the series. The full post-mortem interview (with finale spoilers) will publish on Tuesday, Feb. 17. So stay tuned!
