Messy people make great TV! In this episode, Jillian is breaking down Tell Me Lies Season 3 episodes 1 through 3 on Hulu and Disney Plus and the drama is bigger than ever.

(00:52) Before we get into all those lies, Jillian kicks things off with a quick detour to the Upper East Side, chatting with her friend Clay about his Gossip Girl sketch show (one night only!) at UCB in NYC and they break down why the early 2000s teen drama provides so much comedy.

(16:23) Then it’s straight back to Baird College, where everyone is scheming, everyone is spiraling, and Stephen might officially be Jillian’s most hated TV character of all time. She breaks down Stephen's top 5 most diabolical moments in this episode, ranks each character from least worst to worst, and makes her predictions on where this season is headed.
