Is this psychological thriller one of those limited event series that will remain a single installment mini-series, or will ITV and SundanceTV decide to renew their Liar TV show for a second season? If Liar does get a pickup, will it focus on the same characters, or will it morph into an anthology? Stay tuned.
A modern exploration of gender politics, Liar stars Joanne Froggatt, Ioan Gruffudd, Zoë Tapper, Warren Brown, Richie Campbell, Jamie Flatters, Shelley Conn, Danny Webb, Rita McDonald Damper, Chu Omambala, Finn Bennett, Akbar Kurtha, Oliver Maltman, Tsion Habte, Ethan Risk, and Frasier Risk. While the widowed Dr. Andrew Earlham (Gruffudd) thinks they had a perfect first date, school teacher Laura Nielson (Froggatt) has a very different perception. The SundanceTV drama examines the respective truths of both Laura and Andrew and ponders where to draw the line between fact and perception. Liar also recognizes the high price of deception on the liars themselves and their loved ones.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly in the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

What do you think? Do you like the Liar TV series? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a second season on SundanceTV?
1/15/18 update: SundanceTV has picked up season two of Liar. Details here.
Was so happy that ITV has said there WILL be a Season 2. Ioan Gruffudd is a fav actor of mine and many others.
ITV already stated that there will be a 2nd season, same characters, same actors. Because of Ioan Gruffudd’s prior commitments, filming won’t start until January 2019.
Amazing series, can’t wait to hear what they plan for it if it continues.
