This is my newest binge show. It had 5 seasons a few years ago on USA channel. If you like the Oceans Eleven movies then this is similar only in a series. Not War and Peace but it has some cool twists from time to time. I am watching this while I wait for the new stuff to all come back.

THIS SHOW IS AWESOME!

I just got hip to it, and I have downloaded all 5 seasons of it. :) It has Wil Wheaton in it from time to time, and it is a crew of geeks and crooks and feels like a modern 21st century version of the original TV show Mission Impossible. It is freakin AWESOME. Must watch must watch! Azaliarazor if you are reading this, I thank you for starting this thread! I actually started sometime in Season 3 because my new roomie has ION on cable and she watches it. Since then I have downloaded all 5 seasons and am watching it from the beginning.

I tried to get into this show but I much prefer Hustle.

I will give this a look-see. I am craving anything but the mindless crap coming out lately which is all teen angsty and full of high schoolish stories some older writers think will appeal to "millenials". I am tired of the same types being cast in similar roles and formulaic tropes. I tried to watch SGU again, and it was actually right in with this crap.

I hope Hustle does not remind me of another show...I might like it!

If you liked to see oceans 11, lock stock two smoking barrel, then you'll like hustle. It's basically a bunch of con men who pull a stunt on rich, greedy people. Each episode lasts for about an hour and they leave little clues and at the very end it all comes together. Though the latter season does tire out easily. The series ends in a bad way but the show is still good to watch. There is also white collar which is similar too and you'll find the humour similar to that of stargate sg-1. Infact, quite a few guest cast from the sg-1 crew as well as Willie Garson who continues his brilliant acting in the show - and playing almost exactly the same character, smart, funny and all likeable cast.
