    Great series. Fast paced and fun. Figures the BBC creates this - American networks havent a clu about creating quality like this.

    This is one of the best shows on television. It is interesting, intelligent and suspenceful. The writing is superb and the actors all give premier performances on every episode. It needs to be publicized better so that people don't have to stumble across it by accident as I did.

    Fun capers, fun cons. Watch for the shows with Adrian Lester. The 4th season does miss him.

    This show is incredible to watch, it's nice to see something new on TV in the US, not more Cop shows. It's just fun to watch

    The best show on tv. Wish it were on twice a week. Can't wait for the movie! It's that good. The cast of characters are all of you college roomates grownup, plus a professor.

    Excellent show, but you have to pay attention. Very smartly written, well acted, and has lots of surprising twists that you don't usually see coming.

    Found it by accident. Fell in love within five minutes! Can't get enough of the humor, acting, plot, and just great fun of this show. Reminds me of the days when tv really was entertainment!

    This wasn't a bad episode but there were far better ones in the first 3 series. The show certainly misses Adrian Lester and I hope he comes back in the future.

    I only saw the first episode. It started out good, slowed down in the middle, but had a great ending!

    Hustle has humor, class and interesting story lines. It's so nice to watch a show that keeps you riveted and doesn't need the gore of current cop shows and CSI - type shows to do it.

    The show is still great, but Adrian Lester had a real mysterious facet that is now missing. Hope he comes back.

    I too stumbled upon the show while surfing. The cartoonish but thought-provoking opening, along with the catchy theme music hooked me in a second. I haven't been sorry yet. For all of the good reasons stated by others who gave it a 10, publicity might kill it. It's not your average mindless junk. A smaller audience makes me feel better.

    This is good fun -- not necessarily substantial, but fun nonetheless.

    It's an entertaining hour sure to appeal to fans of A&E's equally fast-paced British import "MI-5."
