    If you like this show, I hate you.

    Anyone who seriously believes this crap is real is just plain stupid. Even if it was, it would still suck. It's a bunch of sleazy trash, plain and simple.

    Skyler Stone isn't a genuine con man. He's just a smug moron who somehow managed to get his own show. Gah...I can't stand seeing that stupid smirk on his face. The only people he's fooling are the 60 IQ audience.

    Unfortunately we may see a small wave of idiot kids who try to imitate this garbage and think they're uber slick con men.

    It's unbelievable how much crap gets on the comedy network nowadays. I thought they reached their lowest point with You Bet your ass". How wrong I was. Hell, I'd almost rather watch Girls Will be Girls...

    Oh wait...no I wouldn't. But seriously, don't bother with this pathetic excuse for a show.

    I am not impressed

    On top of the fact that Skylar is a complete douche bag and his cons are unimaginative, his schemes require way to much preparation to make any of his scams worth while. Without giving away any spoilers (as if it matters with this piece of crap) his cons are such a sham because it takes the effort of days and days of planning, and the use of multiple accomplices and an entire camera crew etc. just to scam someone into a service that would cost less than a hundred bucks.....in addition if you read in the credits they re-stage some of the phone calls etc. because they don't pan out...The whole concept of this show is bunk because all of his cons have the cost in both the crew and the effort of ten times the actual cost of the service he is trying to get for free...what is the con?

    Stupid Show

    Con is a stupid show, I can't believe it is even rated at 3 out of 10 here on IMDb.com. First of all for starters the host is truly stupid, he could just have a job and pay for his fast food and soda pops and do like half the work he does with his "amazing cons" to get these things for free, like fishing around through the garbage to get a cheeseburger receipt then calling the head company to complain about the cheeseburger just so he can get a free replacement cheeseburger and drive to the restaurant and pick it up? Wow you just did an hour of work, worked up your cellphone bill probably, wasted gas and most importantly wasted all of that time, plus you had to root around through a disgusting big barrel of garbage, all to get one free cheeseburger from McDonald's that is only worth like one dollar. You're an idiot. He also had empty soda cups in a rack in his trunk so that he could go to restaurants and rip them off for free refills, again this is disgusting he's only saving maybe a dollar plus these little cardboard cups get all gross from soda pop syrup and also start to fall apart, on top of that you risk walking into a restaurant and being called out for obviously being some idiot who hasn't bought anything there and is just coming in with his own cup, of course that would make this show interesting and funny instead of just stupid and pointless and completely not funny at all. Con sucks.

    Kind of stupid

    The show is supposed to be about cons, but if you know anything about legitimate conmen, you know Skyler Stone ain't even close to being one. Instead of conning people for big payoffs, he develops these absurdly intricate plans to get such "great" stuff as his apartment cleaned and a free meal. With the time and effort he puts into these things he could just as easily (or more easily for that matter)do them the normal way.

    It's also worth noting that the disclaimers before and after the show sort of take away from any sense of realism that would be present. They flash them so quick you barely get a chance to read, but it does mention that some scenes are staged and that some parties have been compensated for their appearances.

    Some "Con man" Stone is. Don't waste your time and hopefully it'll be cancelled.

    what a great idea

    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.
