Hulu is already home to a range of compelling thriller shows, and it's moving forward with another intriguing watch. The new show in question is "Count My Lies." It was initially announced back in April and is an adaptation of the novel of the same name by Sophie Stava, published back in March.
When the show was first unveiled, we learned that "Freakier Friday" star Lindsay Lohan would feature (her first TV series starring role). Earlier this week, we learned that Hulu had greenlit the show, giving it a limited series order. And with the logline promising explosive secrets, I'm anticipating another twisting watch from the streaming service. Here's a quick round-up of everything we know about "Count My Lies" right now.
What we know about 'Count My Lies' on Hulu right now
"Count My Lies" comes from former "This Is Us" co-showrunners, Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger.
With the series order came the news that Shailene Woodley ("Big Little Lies," "Three Women") had boarded the show. All four are also attached as executive producers.
It's the plot that makes this sound like a juicy watch. The "Count My Lies" logline reads: "When compulsive liar Sloane Caraway (Woodley) fibs her way into a nanny position for the gorgeous and charismatic Violet (Lohan) and Jay Lockhart, it seems she's finally landed her dream job. But little does Sloane know, she's just entered a household brimming with secrets that are about to explode — with potentially catastrophic consequences for all."
It's those allusions to "catastrophic consequences" and "secrets that are about to explode" that have me intrigued. If "Count My Lies" can deliver, it could well draw in viewers who love nothing more than getting sucked into a thriller.
Seeing as the original novel is pitched as "a read-in-one-night suspense thriller," "Count My Lies" certainly has my interest piqued, and I'll be sure to keep an eye out for more news from the show.
