Lucy Spiller is the editor of "glossy tabloid" magazine DirtNow in Los Angeles. Overseeing a crack team of reporters and paparazzi, Lucy is able to manipulate the lives of numerous celebrities -- although she isn't immune to the charm and charisma of studly young actor Holt McLaren. Lucy's righthand pal at the magazine is Don Konkey, a schizophrenic photographer whose mental illness makes him a real wild card.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

It's dog-eat-dog fun. Go to Full Review David Hinckley New York Daily News 09/04/2019
Launches its second season... with full confidence that some percentage of TV viewers are as enthralled with the celebrity gossip industry as the people who work in it. You just wish those viewers' loyalty could be rewarded with a more interesting show. Go to Full Review Alan Sepinwall Newark Star-Ledger 09/04/2019
Here's the thing, though: On the long list of everything wrong with Dirt season one, the depiction of the fake celebrities would have been at or near the bottom. And nothing else on the list has been addressed. Go to Full Review Scotsman Staff Scotsman 09/04/2019
Dirt isn't the apotheosis of anything, but it's a deliciously aimless way to spend a Monday night. Go to Full Review Christopher Lawrence Las Vegas Review-Journal 09/04/2019
Dirt's new strike-shortened, seven-episode season is all about ripped-from-the-headlines stories that feel even lazier than the various "Law & Orders" at their worst. Go to Full Review Donna Rooney IGN Movies 09/04/2019
7.6/10
A fun but guilty pleasure, tabloids aren't for everyone and Dirt, true to form, has an audience all its own. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
