One of Us Is Lying (Peacock) -- Based on the Novel -- Premieres 10/7/21
Based on Karen M. McManus's #1 New York Times best-selling novel, One of Us Is Lying is the story of what happens when five high schoolers walk into detention and only four make it out alive. Everyone is a suspect, and everyone has something to hide.
This is an 8 episode series. The full trailer was posted today.
Yay!! Another YA thriller series for all you 50 year olds who can so relate to it.
The person who adapted this series is pretty unknown. She worked on Evil, Instinct, Channel Zero in small production roles.

I watched the first few episodes. It's alright and easy to binge. Better than Cruel Summer.

Just finished this today. I liked it.
I've never read the books so I don't know how accurate it is.
Not sure if I really liked the way it ended, but it definitely feeds into a potential second season.
Midway through I thought "This is like Pretty Little Liars mixed with Breakfast Club." First time I google it, someone made the same comparison, so, yeah.
But PLL dragged on for like seventeen seasons. I quit after 3. I like that this told a reasonably complete story in 8 episodes with a sensible way to continue if it gets renewed.
