tv: CON (comedy central)

CON on comedy central

has anyone else seen this show? it's basically about a guy who figures out how to get free shit by lying and taking advantage of people. for example, in the first episode i saw, he convinced 3 hot chicks that he was a photographer, and invited them over to his apartment for a photoshoot. the theme of the fake layout was housecleaning, so he photographed them vacuuming, straightening up, etc. in another episode he and his friends got a free meal at an expensive restaurant because they were filming an episode for the 'show' you got bitched.

anyone else think this show is great? it's really funny... i kind of want to be friends with this guy, in some weird way.

Not impressive an unrealistic, IMO. Of course he is going to get freee shit when there is a camera crew rolling around with him. Lame. REALLY lame.

i might have to watch an episode or two but the ads for it look imo really dumb

don't get me wrong- i'm sure it's very scripted and the camera crews influence it a lot. however, this guy is just such a dick- i love it!

I thought these were "re-enactments" - meaning they use paid actors in place of the people who were originally scammed, and therefore you are not seeing the actual "cons", even though it is filmed that way to try and make you believe that. I may be wrong here, but my friend who watches this show told me this was the case.
