Tell Me is an incisive drama, but it's not an easy commitment.
By Gillian Flynn FULL REVIEW
80
[A] deeply interesting, occasionally riveting show.
By Maureen Ryan FULL REVIEW
70
The series is bold in its candor and unhurried attention to detail, but not quite brave enough to lay bare the bleakest, pettiest injuries that can scar a marriage.
By Alessandra Stanley FULL REVIEW
63
The storylines are not so much entertainingly paced as they are merely interesting, representational or too often plodding.
By Doug Elfman FULL REVIEW
50
Tell Me You Love Me begins within confines, its white, middle class, straight couples all dealing with versions of the same problem. That this focus might be "real" is not the question. More troubling, for a series banking on its newness, is that the focus is so familiar.
By Cynthia Fuchs FULL REVIEW

There's no intrigue, no entertainment, and the show's motion, when there is any, is so s-l-o-w, it's virtually undetectable.
By Jonathan Storm FULL REVIEW
20
Yes, [the sex is] all very realistic, but not very hot, thanks to the fact that these are grouchy, humorless people whom we'd rather see hitting each other in the head with two-by-fours.
