It could have been better, but it was a pretty interesting show that kept me vested considering I'm 36 and this show is about a bunch of high schoolers that "find themselves" after being accused of murdering a peer. As far as high school shows go, it was one of the better series. I hate shows that have supposed to be 16 year-olds looking 25 and acting 35 (I'm talking to you, Pretty Little Liars and Riverdale), but this one was fairly believable and didn't give the characters too much credit, like other shows where a 16 year-old has numerous unexplained financial resources and seems to be smarter than any FBI agent or detective in town. Not great, but good.

When a group of give teenagers head into detention, only four of them come out alive.

It's a bit of a mix between Scream and Thirteen Reasons why, if you're a fan of those shows, you may well enjoy this.

It's a good series, it's very watchable, it is guilty of delivering every single cliche under the sun, of course the central characters are all attractive, of course one is wealthy, of course there's the prom...

One of the issues I had, is that it doesn't really care to do anything particularly different, there's nothing exactly new here, apart from the low count.

It is a little padded in the middle, it was perhaps guilty of being perhaps two episodes too long, the first and last two perhaps the best of the series.

It looks nice, the music is great, it's visually very appealing.

7/10.

What a surprise! Thought it was just gonna be another cliché teen-centric show disguised as a murder mystery drama. Romance was very much on the sideline and the mystery part was actually really done well and intriguing up until the very last scene. What I really liked the most was the character growth of Addy!

I haven't read the book yet and I know that it's pretty popular, but the thing is if it wasn't for IMDB's recommendation, I never would've known this adaptation existed! It's so underrated and I feel like this would've been a total hit if it was on Netflix. Anyhow I really wish they do a season 2 as the ending was a perfect set-up for it.

Classic Netflix series for teenagers made on a very low budget. Simultaneously with this series I watched The AfterParty on Apple TV +. Two completely different worlds, Afterparty is beautiful while this series is a real disaster in every respect. I don't expect the same quality of Apple TV Plus products, since Apple can afford a theoretically unlimited budget, but at least a minimum of commitment I do. Horrible!

Like most of the US' teen TV shows, One of Us Is Lying still displays characters that look too old as a high school student. It's a bit creepy, to be honest.

But, despite that, it's an engaging murder mystery entwined with your daily dose of teen drama. A very binge-worthy show. Until they did a slight alteration with the finale.

Gone is the intensity of the climax and the satisfying epilogue of the book on which the show is based. Replace with your typical bland soap opera twist that clearly is a bridge to the next season. I'm so sorry, but because of that, I've lost my interest to follow their next story.
