Well that's a surprise! They say that for now there are no plans made to continue the series, but it seems awfully suspicious to suddenly air the pilot on any platform.
I know what I'm doing with my evening now.

I've seen it. I'm still processing my thoughts, but I think I liked it more than not. It is not direct from the book -- they've left out a lot of the first book and they've brought in some characters from Pandemonium and some that didn't exist (I think, but it's been a while since I listened to them.).
It looks like they're trying to make Julian a potential love interest for Hana, which is strange to me, but I don't mind, because I liked TV-Julian, and I like TV-Hana (Jeanine - or is it Janine? - from SYTYCD a few years back). But although I like her portrayal, it's weird for me because she physically doesn't look like Hana as described in the books. There's so much made of Hana being Fair-haired and willowy and Lena being short with darker hair and eyes, so neither actress fits with my expectation in that regard. I actually liked Lena as well, even though I really can't stand Emma Roberts normally. But I did like her as Lena.
I tried to think in the mindset of someone who hadn't read the books, and I think they did a good job of setting up the premise for a new audience.
I would keep watching it if they produce a full series.
I just finally watched it. I enjoyed it. Its been a long time since I read the books but I feel like the changed a lot. I really wish it had been picked up.
