BEST SHOWS IN THE HULU TOP 10
‘Only Murders in the Building’
“Only Murders in the Building” has to be the most popular Hulu show ever, and it’s currently airing season 4 (even though it’s almost over, sadly). This mystery-comedy series follows three strangers — played by Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez — who share an obsession with true crime.
When a murder occurs in their upscale New York City apartment building, they band together to solve the case. The trio decides to start their own true-crime podcast, documenting their investigation as they unravel the mystery surrounding the death. Along the way, they encounter quirky neighbors, red herrings, and personal secrets, all while navigating their unlikely friendship.

‘Tell Me Lies’
“Tell Me Lies” season 2 ends in just one week, and it’s already been chaotic. This show follows the tumultuous and toxic relationship between Lucy Albright (Grace Van Patten) and Stephen DeMarco (Jackson White) over the span of several years.
The story begins when they meet in college, and it explores how their intense, manipulative connection impacts not only their lives but also the lives of their friends and others around them. The show dives deep into obsession, deceit and emotional manipulation, showing how one person can influence and unravel someone else's life over time. Based on Carola Lovering's novel of the same name, “Tell Me Lies” is a dark, psychological exploration of young love gone wrong.
