Pilot

Love! Love! Love! This is the best show I have seen in a long time.

Sneaky Pete has a very interesting plot. The show is something unique and fun. A lot takes place during this first episode. It certainly kept my attention and left me wanting for more.

Many of the actors are familiar faces. All with great talent.

This is a show I would highly recommend anyone. I am betting there is something about the characters that most would be able relate to.

I truly hope Sneaky Pete is picked up as a series. I cannot wait to see more episodes! I am, admittedly, Sneaky Pete's new biggest fan.

Keep it coming, Amazon!

In 3 words, how would i describe "Sneaky Pete":

Predictable, Uninspired, Shallow

Each scene is marred by an overwhelming feeling of haste, as if dallying too long will unravel the shoddy plot. There is no cohesion, no glue that binds everything together. It felt like a flurry of average ideas, hastily mashed together, and presented to the audience, expecting us to accept it all at face value.

The writing feels graceless, forced, and lacking direction. I can almost see the impending conflict(s) on the drawing board as they're laid out in each scene - the solutions to which range from lazy to downright boring. It would not surprise me if some clash of vision led to the resolutions to in-show conflicts being drawn from a hat - filling in the blanks along the way. I caught myself several times, face in hand, groaning at the predictability of it all.

The relationships between characters feels equally artificial. I've made deeper connections in the line of the supermarket. The acting is sub-par, and the dialogue is uninspired.

I cannot recommend this show to anyone.

Quite frankly, it left a bad taste in my mouth.

Avoid unless hospitalized with a chronic illness, and the only alternative is reruns of Wheel of Fortune.

I must say I am sucker for a good drama series and the pilot of Sneaky Pete has not disappointed me. I am left waiting impatiently for episode 2 after seeing the previews for this show. I love the story line and find it to be very creative and refreshingly new. Giovani so far has played a brilliant character and I can't wait to see what he has up his sleeves for the rest of the show. Now if they play their cards right they will have me sucked righted in for many many more hours of TV viewing. I hope this one is promoted correctly and achieves the audience ratings as I am frustrated with every second show being cancelled these days. Keep up the good work and hurry up with episode 2!

The potential here is enormous for a hit. Ribisi is excellent, as are the supporting actors. The surprise appearance of a well-known guest star was a big bonus (and it seems like he'll at least be around for a few episodes) but said star is not a requirement for this show's success. I'm a suspense junkie, and the tension is palpable throughout the pilot episode, especially when "Pete" has plans that don't work out as expected. It seems much more real as a result. Not to mention the overall premise of the show. The unpredictability is refreshing and quite suspenseful.

There's a need for quality shows that are not TV-MA and can be enjoyed with a family of teens. Please give Sneaky Pete a go and if you like it, complete the Amazon survey if it is still up.

It's a home run. Ribisi gets an Emmy. The show gets an Emmy--if they will produce more episodes in short order. Other than Major Crimes, we've had no new shows hold our interest (Battle Creek was canceled on us, as was Maxwell & King) so resorted to watching movies we've missed. Now Sneaky Pete. It got our attention in the first 5 minutes and held it. So often, we have to say, "Well, we'll watch the second episode and see if it goes anywhere." Better Call Saul worked like that, now we're waiting for the next season, but mostly it's been a drought for us.

I've been so-so on Ribisi over the years. Really didn't like him in Boiler Room. But he has so matured as an actor that he carries this show. Perfection! (If he has an acting coach, we need that name.)

I like seeing the high rating here, and the one review being good and accurate. Now if Amazon will just deliver on the promise of the pilot, Sneaky Pete will absolutely be a hit.
