Hulu's January 2026 lineup is built around three very different kinds of drama. Tell Me Lies returns for its third season on January 13th, continuing the toxic, two-timeline dissection of Lucy and Stephen's college relationship — this time promising the messiest, most revealing chapter yet. A Thousand Blows Season 2 arrives on January 9th, bringing Steven Knight's visceral Victorian London back with deeper stakes for Hezekiah, Mary, and the Forty Elephants syndicate.
Rounding out the month is The Beauty, Ryan Murphy's new FX series premiering January 21st. It's his most provocative concept in years: a sexually transmitted virus that grants physical perfection at the cost of a gruesome death, set against the fashion world. It uses body horror and sci-fi as instruments of social satire, critiquing the extremes people will go to for beauty.
For binge-watchers, Tell Me Lies Season 3 is the clear priority — it's one of the most compulsively watchable toxic-romance dramas on any platform. If you're after something with more period texture, A Thousand Blows is the natural companion to Peaky Blinders. And if you want something genuinely unsettling and conversation-starting, The Beauty delivers exactly that.

The brutal world of Victorian London returns in A Thousand Blows Season 2, premiering January 9th on Disney Plus and Hulu. Created by Steven Knight, this British historical epic dives back into the illegal bare-knuckle boxing scene and the legendary Forty Elephants female crime syndicate. The new episodes heighten the stakes as Hezekiah and Mary fight for survival in a city defined by lawlessness and ambition. With its visceral action and lush period detail, it's a knockout choice for fans of Peaky Blinders seeking a raw, atmospheric underworld saga.
“A confident second season that deepens the stakes of one of the most distinctive period dramas currently on streaming.”

Prepare for more emotional wreckage as Tell Me Lies returns for Season 3 on January 13th on Hulu. Spanning two timelines, the series continues to dissect the addictive, toxic bond between Lucy Albright and Stephen DeMarco during their time at Baird College and beyond. This season promises to be the messiest yet, revealing long-buried secrets that finally catch up to the core group of friends. If you love a drama that isn't afraid to lean into the darker, more manipulative sides of romance, this is your next binge.
“The most compulsively watchable toxic-romance drama on streaming comes back for its biggest season yet.”

The Beauty is an FX on Hulu series created by Ryan Murphy, premiering January 21st. It explores a deadly sexually transmitted virus that grants physical perfection but leads to gruesome deaths, turning the fashion world into a horror show. The central idea is that people will risk everything, even their lives, for physical beauty. It critiques society's fixation on appearance and how far individuals will go to achieve it — using horror and sci-fi to explore vanity, corruption, and the dangerous pursuit of perfection.
“Ryan Murphy's most provocative new concept in years, blending body horror with sharp cultural satire.”
