A lost twin. A dark secret. A deadly game.

Emma, a kind-hearted foster kid who can't catch a break, finds out she has an identical twin sister, Sutton, who - unlike Emma - was adopted by wealthy parents and is seemingly living an ideal life. After their initial meeting, Sutton talks Emma into stepping into her life for a few days while she pursues a lead on their birth mother. Initially excited to do this favor for her sister, Emma soon learns that Sutton has gone missing and could be in trouble. Now, Emma must decide whether to come clean to Sutton's family and risk her own safety in the hope of uncovering her twin sister's true whereabouts, along with the truth about why they were separated in the first place.

Watch and you'll want to play along, too.

Robert Lloyd · Los Angeles Times 70.00/100.00

Pretty Little Liars managed to find an organic groove, and there's reason to think this close cousin can also find its feet and walk.

Rob Owen · Pittsburgh Post-Gazette 60.00/100.00

The Lying Game is not great television by any means but it's an adequate teen soap filled with attractive performers playing characters much younger than their actual ages, something the target audience for this type of series has come to expect.
