Any fans of Hustle?

Lost its way after the second series and became increasingly ridiculous from that point on. Didn't like the cast changes either.
 
Season three was ok, but season two was one of the greatest things ever to grace our TV screens. I'm not sure how I'll take this one if we're still missing Danny and Stacie, I did enjoy the last season, but it's not in the same league as season two.

It's just not the same without Jaime Murray, she's so incredibly hot that I could watch a whole season just to stare at her and with her gone... Mediocre script writing just can't cut it. I'm still hopeful about it though. :)
 
first time ive seen it. bit ridiculous really but its entertaining enough i suppose

eg where was she taking those credit cards to spend without pin numbers. same with the hotel room . lots of other silly things that i feel would just never happen so easily
 
I really enjoyed that. :)

Obviously the odd hole here and there (the pin number thing stuck in my mind as well), and the supposedly epic police officer's epic sting operation turned out to be very lame.

But all problems aside, enjoyment is the most important thing and I enjoyed it immensely. :)
 
Got boring very quickly. They simply just have the most outrageous cons and also manage to see everything from a mile off.

At least Dr House is very fallible.
 
If you don't have Marc Warren and Jaime Murray, you don't have Hustle. The original cast was perfectly chosen and superbly well balanced. Ain't broke? Don't fix it.
 
I don't think they had a choice if memory serves correct. Warren & Murray wanted to do other things and they're not the only ones who have tried to use the program to progress their careers. Murray was briefly on Dexter. Annoyingly she was cack and fugly topless, which was odd since she played the sexy character in Hustle really well.

There was chemistry present between them in the first four series and like any good relative unknowns they certainly took their chances. But it was really the scripts that made Hustle in my opinion, with heavy emphasis on good direction.

When they both left, the quality of the story went down at the same time I felt. There was also one episode where they either repeated the main trick or something; everybody predicted it after a sense of deja vu before it "happened" on the first broadcast.

Just seen the latest one as well. Didn't make that much sense and was too far fetched even within their universe. The new "fit" bird is just awful. I don't think they should do another series.
 
Murray is a classy bird, but she really doesn't have the figure for topless scenes. Always struck me as the sort who'd benefit from an extra meal every day.
