    I think they discontinued this show midseason, but I hope I am wrong and that there is a second season. I think this show was a good idea-stealing stuff in Beverly Hills. Great show. Watched every episode. Also has a lot of cliffhangers that make you want to watch the next episode.

    This show is brilliant! Maybe another network will pick it up...or at least release the season on DVD. It far surpasses anything on tv right now and it's a real shame to have cancelled it. Please bring it back!

    First new show I haved loved since "Rescue Me" premiered. It is a terrible shame they took it away! My teenage sons loved it too. You can't count audience by number of tv's turned in. We always had 4 of us watching.

    Heist had both intelligence and humor. The writers did a great job in crafting characters that were quirky, funny, and flawed but were emotionally connected enough to drive the underlying heart of the story while keeping us engaged with the "heist" portion of it. Please bring it back - it's so much better than these awful reality shows.

    Such a great show. Why cancel it after just a few episodes?

    Can't believe another great show gone. They could have at least let the plot finish with the heist being a success or failure and put them in jail.

    I love it. Even recording it. You have to like the witty comments, and I know the whole stealing thing has been done. I do like the way this is being done. Each character does have their own problem of one form or another. I can't wait to see how it ends.

    I like it a lot . Good wriiting...acting and directing. The best show on T.V. Everything is just right..funny, witty, and a little bit of sarcasm now and then not too serious. Love..love..it!

    I love heist movies and was very excited for this show. They have tried way too hard to infuse comedy into the dialogue. The character Ricky Watman makes me want to never watch again...

    i know its a tv show and its supposed to be fun, but it just made my brain shrink because of the supposed witty banter. John Travolta and Samuel l Jackson they aint.......

    An hour of snide cleverness--especially one in which you can predict all the plot twists--gets tired fast. [24 Mar 2006, p.59]
  2. It's an entertaining enough diversion if you're not expecting much.

    Heist is a tiresome mess.
