    I really enjoyed Oceans 11!!

  2. Misty says:

    Favorite con show, I think is White Collar. Favorite series has to be the Oceans 11, 12 and 13.

  3. My favorite con movie might be the newer Ocean’s 11. I love caper films, but that one is just done so well.

    As for tv series, I was always a fan of It Takes a Thief and Remington Steele, but for straight up con artist shows, I’d have to give the edge to Hustle, from the UK and shown on AMC here. Excellent plotting, fun dialogue, nicely done all around.

  4. Tony says:

    White Collar of course!

  5. Kristin H. says:

    the Italian job!

  6. Sharon says:

    “The Sting” is my old school fav con movie.

  7. Heather Carr says:

  9. Gwen says:

    I am loving all the shows on USA network! White Collar and Burn Notice are my top two this year, especially since CBS stopped airing Flashpoint, my absolute favorite show.

  10. jeremy says:

    White collar! Never missed a episode

  11. Renee says:

    My fav con tv show is White Collar of course!

  12. Samantha Davis says:

    Favorite con TV show is Leverage.

  13. Liza says:

    Ocean’s 11 is a great con movie. Love the actors in it!
    and my fave con shows are Leverage and White Collar!

  14. wingsone says:

    MATCHSTICK MEN!

  15. Paul says:

    My favorite con show is White Collar and its astonishingly whimsical logic just like when Neal used his anklet to retrieve the Spanish bond and juxtaposing Neal’s life into a game of chess. I also love how the writers chosen the alias ‘Nick Holden’ for Neal. I bet Gatsby and Caulfield would be happy to watch this show too.

  16. Rebecca Arney says:

    My favorite con movie of all time? Hands down, “The Sting”. If you haven’t seen it, because, well … it came out in the 70s (!) … trust me, RENT IT NOW. It’s that good. Seven Academy Awards good. And funny too, with the coolest and handsomest cons ever, Robert Redford and Paul Newman. They’ll slyly set you up, suck you in, take you on a raucous ride with more twists than a mountain road, and then shock you silly in the end. And, yes, oh yes, it hurts so good :)

  17. misha says:

    I’m going with Sneakers, but there are so many good shows/movies with the con theme

  18. [...] Posted on January 20, 2010 by Vlada You didn’t think the White Collar prize pack was the only giveaway at Staying In this week, did you? My favorite USA Network show, Burn Notice, [...]

  19. Jenny says:

    I kinda love Leverage.

    Not gonna lie, V. LOL. Screw that movie crap give me a TV show any day.

  20. brad says:

    White Collar is my favorite con show, and while yes, Oceans 11 is awesome, The Usual Suspects is one of the best con movies EVER. I really like Catch Me If You Can, too.

  21. Ewa says:

    White Collar and the bank job with Clive Owen

  22. Ewa says:

    White Collar and “inside man” with Clive Owen

  23. Dane Hillard says:

    Catch Me If You Can, The Ocean’s Trilogy, and White Collar are all great!

  24. Patty Ardis says:

    TV con show is White Collar for sure and for the movie it is a tie between “The Inside Man” and “Sneakers” both are good fun.

  25. Amanda says:

    My favorite con show is definitely a tie between White Collar and Leverage. They are both so genius, and I especially love the characters in Leverage!

  26. My favorite con movie is “Catch Me If You Can” & for con TV show, it’s definitely “White Collar”!

  27. Christine S says:

    There are several favorite con movies as of date. Oceans 11-13 is a great series. It’s just one of those movies you can never get tired of watching. It’s got humor, action and a great round of players. Then there 21, that just makes you wish you were smart in math. But between the 2, oceans 11 is beats it out. Does Gone In 69 seconds count?lol

  28. Christine S says:

    I forgot to add… For favortie tv show is course White Collar! I havn’t fell in love with a show this much since Charmed and that says a lot! Especially when I watch all 8 seasons on tv over and over and over. I watch WC on dvr over and over and over XD

  29. Alex Barak says:

    I personally like the TV show 24 and burn notice the most. 24 has a lot of unpredictable events all happening in real time making it feel more realistic and burn notice is 1. filmed in miami where I live, 2. action packed 3. clever tactics and 4. comedy aswell.

    love those shows!

  30. Shamra Haynes says:

    Favorite con movie, “The Sting”
    Favorite con TV series, “White Collar” (of course)

  31. Kelly H. says:

    White Collar and Psych :)

  32. Olga says:

    The one con-man show that consistently delivers is Hustle. In its sixth season and still going strong!

  33. Amanda says:

    Fav show: White Collar of course! Love it more than NCIS or CSI! Fav movie: probably Ocean’s 11 & 12

  34. Alicia says:

    Much as I love Neal and Peter, I think I have to go with Newman and Redford: The Sting.

  35. Travis says:

    Oceans 11 is probably my favorite con movie.

  36. Jen says:

    White Collar is my new favorite (with Leverage a very close second!)

  37. Larry Wayne Smith says:

    “The Sting”! There is no equal. Paul Newman at his charming best. And Robert Shaw was just so…nasty! The “Oceans” movie can’t hold a candle to ‘em…

  38. Jason says:

    Dirty Rotten Scoundrels

  39. Victoria says:

    White Collar is definitely my favorite tv show right now. There’s nothing else like it on tv!

  40. Esther says:

    I loved The Sting … but the show this reminds me of is “It Takes A Thief” … Robert Wagner was SO gorgeous!

  41. Alex Hulse says:

    The Sting is the best. Ocean’s 12 is close those, not that it was the best, but it had a certain 1950s French caper style.

  42. Dave says:

    My favorite con TV show is White Collar, of course. My favorite con movie is The Sting. Great music, great con!

  43. Rose says:

    I’d have to say Catch Me if You Can. Such an amazing story and a great cast!

  44. J.K. says:

    You really don’t have to go classic…the new breed of con TV shows are great. “Leverage” is good, but it stole straight from the book of “Hustle”…”Hustle” is absolutely amazing. Recommended for all to see.

  45. Elena says:

    It’s a tie between White Collar & Leverage for tv shows, but my favorite con movie is The Italian Job.

  46. Robin says:

    I love White Collar! I do have to admit I haven’t watched very many con movies or TV shows, though. White Collar was just awesome enough to hook me in anyway ;)

  47. Alex Eyanson says:

    For Movies, The Ocean’s series. TV Shows now is White collar but b4 was the sopranos (it was more mafia but they con’d ppl)

  48. Anita says:

    Fav con movie: The Usual Suspects! Keyser Soze!

  49. Carianne says:

    I really love the TV show “Leverage”. Sure, it’s about Con people… But it’s about con people who use their power for good — kinda like White Collar :p

  50. Kyle says:

    My favorite is the old USA Network miniseries “Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less”

  51. Brad Kalmanson says:

    Has to be My Blue Heaven!!!

  52. Debbie E says:

    Matchstick Men—the original (book) ending was heart-wrenching.

  53. Nicole says:

    Favorite con movie is Catch Me If You Can. When White Collar came out it reminded me a lot about this movie because it also involves an F.B.I. agent searching for a man who conned many people and made a ton of money off it.
    White Collar is the best show on tv right now!

  54. Andrea says:

    My favourite con shows are ‘White Collar’ and ‘Hustle’, and my favourite con films are ‘Catch Me If You Can’ and ‘The Sting’. Fabulous!

  55. Con TV show – White Collar of course! If you mean besides that one, I’d have to say Leverage.
    Con movie – The Music Man

  56. geoff says:

    Favorite con show is definitely White Collar!

  57. Katie says:

    Movie – I would have to go with either Ocean’s Eleven or The Sting. TV Show would probably be Hustle.

  58. Lesley says:

    My favorite con show is Leverage.

  59. Elizabeth Burgess says:

    Ooh, Catch Me If You Can was fantastic. And of course, I love me some White Collar.

  60. Linda Fassnacht says:

    White Collar is my fave con show. Fave con movie would have to be Heist starring Gene Hackman!

  61. Amy says:

    I’m gonna have to go with Catch Me If You Can with White Collar a close second.

  62. Nordom says:

    My favorite con movie is definitely Ocean’s Eleven.

    I think I’ll check The Sting due to these comments!

  63. Laura DeLuca says:

    I loved catch me if you can with leonardo dicaprio

  64. Josh says:

    My favorite con movie is The Hustler. Watching Paul Newman and Jackie Gleason sweat it out over pool is still one of the best ways to kill time. The Sting is good stuff, but I always end up going back to The Hustler myself.

  65. Cheryl W. says:

    My favorite con movie was Bandits with Bruce Willis, Billy Bob Thorton and Cate Blanchett. Loved the ending the most.

  66. Margie says:

    White Collar, by default, though I’ve been meaning to catch Leverage.
