      Critics Consensus

      Liar's second season slumps hard with a bland mystery that lets it's capable cast down.

      Simon S Really gripping - ignore the bad reviews; we loved it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/24 Full Review Chris K Much better than I was expecting after having read some of the other reviews on here! A perfectly acceptable whodunnit! Watch it and make your own mind up about it. I did and I am glad I did. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/09/22 Full Review maria a Unfortunately they ruined it. They took it in a weird direction with all sorts of plot twists that don't really feel that exciting, new characters that we don't care about, and the lead character being put on a mission that doesn't feel credible. A pity, really. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Polly T Hard to follow with all the flash backs, constantly back and forth in time. Stupid ending. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/23/20 Full Review Audience Member Series 2 was total rubbish from start to finish - far fetched, terrible script and some bad acting - kept thinking it might get better but sadly it got worse.

      Ben Dowell Times (UK) This series was told almost entirely in flashbacks and plotty pyrotechnics that lacked the first run's emotional kidney punches, getting almost as bogged down as the two protagonists did at the close. Rated: 3/5 Apr 7, 2020 Full Review Anita Singh Daily Telegraph (UK) Really though, do we care who did it? Rated: 2/5 Mar 5, 2020 Full Review Samuel Fishwick London Evening Standard For now, it feels like we're following our own footprints, borne ceaselessly back against the tide. Mar 4, 2020 Full Review Anne Brodie What She Said It's your binge waiting to happen. Jun 5, 2020 Full Review Jeanmarie Tan The New Paper (Singapore) At once vulnerable and pitiable yet steely and annoying, [Joanne Froggatt] gets to sink her teeth even more into a divisive, resilient and empowering female character. Rated: 3.5/5 May 20, 2020 Full Review Euan Ferguson Observer (UK) Whereas the first series was genuinely captivating in its premise of one person's word against another, this seems set to rely on whether the police can catch someone out on a lie.
