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.

Reviews

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
jpandemily I have decided to flush this show from my memory down the toilet of bad TV show into the obscurity of forgetful, disappointing, pointless, garbage TV show hell.The Skyler guy who is the host/star/creator of this show is boring, uninteresting, unbelievable, not particularly good looking and not at all funny, in short why is this guy on TV and especially why is he in a comedy show when he's not funny, pretending to be a professional con man when he definitely is nothing but an obvious pretender? Others have said it here already but this guy is a total fake and fraud, if you believe any of these cons I think you should seriously consider going to get your head checked because they're all fake, and the ones that might possibly be true are so pointless, like spending all day to con someone out of giving you an average meal at a restaurant? Seriously this guy needs to go away, glad this show got canned.
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 *****
bret-cottrell Come on everyone cons people, if you are not you are dumb. Con is one of the only real shows on TV these days, if you look at all the reality show out there. Everyone on these shows are dress up and all dialed in to the way they look.Skyler Stone is as real as it gets, he is just a hard working man in showbiz.Give him some credit he thought up this show and made a demo DVD all on his own with his own money, would you do that? I think Con is the best reality show out there right now and you will see more of Skyler on other shows and movies in the near future.
ivko I thought this show would be about cons, and in a way it was. I was conned out of about 20 minutes of my life that I'll never get back. The "cons" in the pilot episode range from the moronic, where Skyler shows us how to save fast food cups to get free soda (wow!) to the downright offensive, where he prepares to fake being homeless by visiting actual homeless in LA and asking them if his clothes look crappy enough for him to pass as one of them. He then unveils his cover story; you know, the reason why he went crazy and now lives on the street. This leads to an unexpectedly funny moment when a homeless man, clearly baffled at this elaborate and stupid story, points out that all the reason you need to be homeless is to be hooked on crack. The remainder of the cons in the show revolve around Skyler convincing businesses to donate their services for free in exchange for being mentioned on a fictional TV show. The irony, of course, is that this really is on TV so the businesses haven't really been conned at all. All in all, I would guess that legal constraints prevent Skyler and company from showing actual cons, so the show will always be sophomoric pranks instead. Bottom line, skip 'Con' and rent 'The Sting'.
