In this dystopian society love is a disease. Once some one is 18 they are allowed to get the cure. Lena has always dreamed about the perfect life. Her evaluation and then cure is coming up. Will she get the cure, or will someone get in the way.

This aired an a pilot episode on Hulu after it was rejected as a series for the Fox channel.

I actually wish that I never watched this because after seeing it I longed for another episode, but then after a quick google search realized there would not be another. It's a great thriller romance and the plot is fairly original. I think the actors chosen also played their parts well and none of them came with a predetermined character type that they usually play the role of.

Great show and I wish it could have been picked up; I'll just have to read the books to find out what happens.
