HBO Renews Racy “Tell Me”
HBO has picked up its racy relationship drama “Tell Me You Love Me” for a second season.
“Love Me” has stirred controversy with its explicit depiction of sex scenes. It debuted Sept. 9 to underwhelming ratings, averaging only 910,000 total viewers, but the series about three couples in various stages of their relationship seeing the same couples therapist (Jane Alexander) has been building buzz and has developed a devoted following.
The pickup for “Love Me” follows HBO’s recent decision not to renew another freshman drama series, David Milch’s “John From Cincinnati.”
“Love Me”’s ensemble cast also includes Ally Walker, Adam Scott, Sonya Walger, and Sherry Stringfield.
