    Basically, the first season had me hooked! The acting was brilliant - believable, especially the twins whom I had to check were played by the same person. The storyline never had me bored, I was desperate to find out what the hell was going on...Then it all fell apart! Towards the end of the second season, it seemed like the storyline was being thrown about like a game of drunken tennis! Too many unanswered questions and as far as I could tell, no real motifs for the any of the actions committed. Maybe the writers were annoyed that they'd only been granted a further 10 episodes. They didn't pull it neatly together. It didn't end well and I was disappointed. Like so many great shows that are axed too soon, it had shown really great potential.

    Is this the end ? I think, you can't finish at this way, at this point in the show !OK, lots of things are clear, but this is not a finished TV Show.I don't know why is ended at this way, but I hope that will be at least 2-3 episodes to finishing, because this is not finished.Alexandra is AMAZING, plays both roles perfectly. In many things really teens show, but I am PLEASED, it's OK and you always need for more."Revenge","Blacklist", "Hostages", "The Americans", "Homeland" are on some other/higher level, but this show are very good and interesting.Hope for conclusion . . .

    I don't believe I am providing any spoilers with this but honestly I doubt it could spoil any worse than it already is. But just in case I've tagged this with the spoiler flag.For those of you who have never watched an episode of the Lying Game - prepare to be....bored. The entire show is based around a set of twins who were separated at birth by unfortunate circumstances. They grow up in completely different environments - one in foster care, the other by rich parents. By some means of event they are connected, determine they are related, and then decide to live as one another.And no one figures it out.That's right. No one. Best friends, parents, teachers, no one. Btw - the rich one is a total jerk to people. The foster child is humbled comparatively. And yet no one starts to question the overnight change in personality, clothing tastes, behavior, writing style, or academics. Things that completely stump adult spies with years of intensive training in counter intelligence and deep cover techniques somehow are overcome by adolescents with "a plan" to figure it all out.The Lying Game is terrible. The things that would totally tear apart their "game" are the exact things glossed over in the show. There is more to this than them simply living as one another but as a parent I'd know if my kid was suddenly someone different. This show relies heavily on anyone who should figure this out being completely oblivious.Had this some how been explained this show might be bearable.

    Unlike some of the reviewers, I have not read any of the books, so I have started watching this series with no expectations. Since I was already a fan of Pretty Little Liars, I thought I would give this show a chance. I'm gland I did. I have seen the first three shows, and I'm hooked. I love the mystery and the characters. There are already characters I'm cheering for and characters I don't like. But even the ones I don't like have added a richness to the show that makes it even more credible. All of the actors seem to be talented and there is a chemistry that is a must for a show to succeed. I recommend the the Lying Game. It looks as if you have one of the best shows of the new season. Good luck.
