Review of Con Man

Con Man (2015–2017)
4/10
Lots of all favorites in a middling effort
20 January 2021
Came across this by accident. Really wanted to enjoy because of the number of favorites: Tudyk, Fillion, Van Dien (Starship Trooper), Amy Acker, Henry Rollins...

I also understand the high rating. It's just fun having so many familiar faces, in the same room, doing stuff. I just personally found the first 4 episodes forced, the delivery of the humor off, the direction aimless and wasn't having any fun watching this. In fact, the script made me feel tense.

I get what they were trying to accomplish here but I wasn't enjoying it. Stopped after 4 episodes. Maybe it gets better, sharper, funnier - I would have even settled for light and relaxing but 4 episodes should be enough time to establish their footing.
