Synopsis

Con is a television series on Comedy Central in which con artist Skyler Stone revealed the secrets of his profession by performing confidence tricks, scams, and hoaxes of various degrees of complexity on camera. These could range from simply claiming that an order for food was botched, to claiming to be a certain profession, which required training. In one episode Stone showed how he received free soft drinks at fast food restaurants by retaining paper cups from various fast food restaurants and then refilling them at soda fountains. Most of his cons revolved around him claiming that he is filming a television show or movie of some sort, and that the product or service he wished to acquire would be advertised in the film or show. The products did wind up getting free advertisement – but on Con, not where they were told.

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
maz underscore What exactly is the point of pretending to "con" people out of things like ski passes and pizza? I fail to see a point. I'd not clever or original and it strikes me as being extremely pointless. Skyler Stone doesn't seem to be a very down-to-earth or even a nice guy. He has very little charisma and just about anyone could do what he does in this show. The worse thing about this piece of crap, is the fact that a lot of the phone calls are reenacted, so not only are they apparently conning the poor people on the other end of the phone, but they are also conning the audience who don't have enough time to read the "disclaimed" that flickers across the screen for about half a second at the beginning at the end of the show!Not only that but he also claims this is how he lives his whole life. What an lie. No one could live their lives like this and the fact he says this is not only yet another con to get his show watched, but it's also one of the most fabricated, blatant pieces of bull$hit I've ever heard. This guy is an @$$!What makes them think that going to all the trouble of, for example, write and record a song, get someone to pain a HUGE picture of you and two mates, get dance lessons and actually travel to a ski resort is actually worth only getting free ski passes and some food for free? What is the point of that? It's an awful lot of trouble to go to just for a few ski passes and a bit of snow. As far as "comedy" goes, this is bottom of the barrel stuff.
juliagates2002 I couldn't stand this show. so glad it got canceled quick. I can't believe the Comedy Network (Canada) re-aired the episodes of it they must be so desperate for any programs at all. I'm sure they just got it cheap. The guy on this show is so annoying and untalented and not funny at all. He is just so unlikeable, I hated him and even though every scheme was obviously scripted and fake (not to mention stupid) he was such a jerk for pretending to do such stupid stuff and thinking he was cool. He's not cool he sucks. My grade, One out of ten.
markmkm88 Although some phone conversations are re-enacted, the show is not fake. It is exciting to watch Skyler Stone prepare, plan, and use his personas to pull of a well-played con. I recommend everyone to watch this show, it is guaranteed to hook you in. The show itself is original and contains comical situations. Don't believe everyone that says that it is phony because they don't know that they are talking about. Sure it takes editing but so does every show on the air. Some of the stuff he pulls off can't be made by "slick editing" but instead a good plan and some improvisation. I am dismayed by the comments left for this show. Even though it rarely airs on Comedy Central anymore I recommend catching as many re-runs that pop up on Comedy Central.
kk88_4 A show like "Con" doesn't hit TV anymore. It's 150% frivolity and 200% entertainment (excuse me for that child like statement) Skyler Stone takes you through a highly intricate con to support himself in the ragged environment he lives. Be it having scantily clad women clean your house under the guise of a photo shoot for a men's magazine or just getting free pizza from just saying you were dissatisfied w/ your last order; Skyler Stone is a man who, like the imaginary Parker Lewis a decade before him, CAN'T LOSE! I myself after taping 1 show was basically infatuated by the concept, and even if it does go after a few episodes like those more 'sophisticated' users who belittle this show would say, i vow to tape EVERY SINGLE ONE and take them to heart! ****** out of *****
