American Movie Classics, (AMC) one of the many Specialty Channels is widening their program offerings with a new series call HU$TLE. HU$TLE, based in London, we follow a group of con artists, out to swindle “respectable” but greedy marks. HU$TLE will follow this Robin Hood group with lots of suspense, class, comedy and some romance. You will also be introduced to several twists as you dive deeper into the world of scammers and grifters,

It’s involves five players as follows:
The Lure
Stacie Monroe (Jamie Murray) is the pretty face and only woman in the group. It’s her job, as the name says, lure the victim and keep him interested. Not only is she pretty, she’s smart and sassy.

The Inside Man
Mickey Stone (Adrian Lester) is the leader and master of the long con. He has all the polish and patients of a man of his ability and expertise. Micky is out for one final payoff since his release from jail and reuniting with his family of con artists he may just get what he wants.

The Roper
Albert Stroller (Robert Vaughn) and his distinctive style is perfectly suited to prey on the upper crust. The veteran of the group is also mentor to all of his associates.

The Fixer
Ash Morgan (Robert Morgan) is mostly known for doing short cons, such as the Flop (which he uses a old skull fracture) to bilk insurance companies. Mickey asked his old friend to help with one last big score and Ash is more than willing to help and act as Mickey’s right-hand man.

The Wild Card
Danny Blue (Marc Warren) is unpredictable and fast-talking ladies man. He also has the potential to become one of the greatest con men of all time, if he can keep his ego in control long enough to learn from Mickey.

This sounds like a good show, unfortunately I know I have missed the first few episodes but I plan on checking it out on Saturdays nights at 10ET on AMC. If you miss HU$TLE on Saturdays you can catch encores on Fridays at 7ET on AMC.
