If you could make one wish, what would it be? And what would you do to get it? At 666 Park Avenue, all of your dreams and burning desires can come true: wealth, sex, love, power, even revenge. But just be careful what you wish for, because the price you pay...could be your soul. Welcome to The Drake, the premiere apartment building on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Owned by the mysterious Gavin Doran (Terry O'Quinn) and his sexy wife Olivia (Vanessa Williams), The Drake is home to dozens of residents who are unaware they're living in the dark embrace of supernatural forces. They think their dreams are all coming true, only to find they've been lured into making, what feels like, a deal with the Devil. When a young Mid-western couple - Jane Van Veen (Rachael Taylor) and Henry Martin (Dave Annable) - is hired to manage The Drake, they soon discover that evil, obsession, and manipulation has a home.

Based on the pilot, I was very pleasantly surprised at the quality of this show. I would rank it very slightly behind the FX network's American Horror Story (which is quite "gritty"), but for a prime-time ABC network show, this exceeded expectations. The writing is good, suspense is built, the characters are interesting, and the acting is quite believable.
I am VERY disappointed to see reviewers complaining about this show based purely on extremist religious values. I thought that we were better than that. Free speech is wonderful, but I hate to see a show's ratings suffer because of a vocal few. I would encourage you to form your own opinion - if you are up for some scary / dramatic / and yes sometimes "seductive" content, give it a shot.
