madbakerI don't remember how this was recommended, but I'm glad it made its way into the queue. So far we've watched two of the four seasons.
Take The Sting and update it to modern London. A team of grifters cons dishonest marks out of their money in elaborate schemes. Stars Adrian Lester (who I first saw in Love's Labour's Lost) and Robert Vaughn as his American con mentor.
It's well written and, despite knowing that there's often a twist, I don't necessarily figure it out ahead of time. I probably won't watch them again, but they are definitely worth a rental.
