\n\tTell Me Lies<\/a> is ending the cycle of Lucy and Stephen.<\/p>\n

\n\tMeaghan Oppenheimer<\/a>, the creator of Hulu<\/a>\u2018s buzzy drama starring Grace Van Patten<\/a> and Jackson White<\/a>, announced on Monday that the show won\u2019t be returning for a fourth season. The news comes ahead of the highly anticipated season three finale, which releases at 9 p.m. PT\/12 a.m. ET on Monday.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cAfter three amazing seasons of Tell Me Lies, tonight\u2019s episode will be the series finale,\u201d Oppenheimer wrote on Instagram<\/a>. \u201cThis was always\u00a0the ending my writing team and I had in mind, and we are insanely proud of it. 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tShe continued, \u201cMy\u00a0main goal has always been to protect the quality of the show and give you the best experience I can give you.\u00a0And so, while it is bittersweet to leave something that has been such a happy experience,\u00a0I am very grateful that we are able to tell a complete story with an intentional ending \u2013 a privilege very few shows get. Thank you for loving our show. We are excited to bring you more stories in the near future.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tTell Me Lies follows Lucy and Stephen\u2019s addictive and toxic relationship<\/a>, and how it permanently alters their lives and the lives of everyone around them over the course of eight years. The tumultuous couple at the center of the saga is played by Van Patten and White, who have been dating in real life<\/a> ever since meeting during the audition process for the series.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe drama on Tell Me Lies unfolds in two timelines; one in the 2008 backdrop of the fictional Baird College, and the future timeline set in 2015 around the wedding of Bree (Cat Missal) <\/a>and Evan (Branden Cook), a celebratory few months that reunites the group of college friends.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe cast also includes Spencer House, Sonia Mena, Alicia Crowder, Gabriella Pession, Tom Ellis, Costa D\u2019Angelo and Natalee Linez.<\/p>\n

\n\tLast month, ahead of the season three premiere, The Hollywood Reporter<\/a> asked Oppenheimer how many seasons she had envisioned for the show, and if she stuck with that vision when making season three.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI can\u2019t really give a specific answer to that question right now, but I would say the ending of the season is always how I had imagined the ending being,\u201d she teased at the time. \u201cIn terms of what could happen beyond that, who knows? But I had always imagined those two timelines culminating together in the way that they do this season. But there are a lot of things that happen within the seasons that are huge surprises, obviously.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen speaking with THR throughout the season, the cast raved about Oppenheimer\u2019s \u201cperfect\u201d finale, expressing support for the show whether it should continue or end here. \u201cI love the ending so much. It\u2019s an amazing ending, if it was the end,\u201d Van Patten told THR in a chat about the penultimate episode<\/a>. \u201cI also think they are amazing writers, and that Meaghan could think something up to continue the story. So I\u2019d be very happy either way.\u201d<\/p>\n
