Granted, it had some flaws (the beginning took too long, could've been condensed) but for a first run, I think it's promising. I like the 'lightness' of this show. With so much reality tv, it's good to have a show that is just sort of a drama/comedy fantasy and can push a storyline across without having to force laugh out loud physical comedy moments or ultra serious drama. I also loved that they used the song "Ain't No Love in the Club" by Wylde Bunch when Hank and Evan arrive at Boris' castle - it's my current favorite dance track and I was pleasantly surprised to hear it. There's a video of this scene at : http://modestcomplexity.blogspot.com/2009/06/royal-pains.html I really enjoyed the pilot.
