It does sound cheesy. Thanks for the heads-up.

Donna---Ha! I'd bet your local, live entertainment would be more fun than this show. And I don't think this show is made by Texans. There are probably local hires on the crew but as far as I know the lead actors aren't Texans. EIREGO & le0pard13---You guys are funny. Shell---I don't have a problem with con artists in general, either. If a character or story is compelling enough, I'm in. I've even rooted for murderous characters if the actors playing them were brilliant enough (remember Nicole Kidman in To Die For?). None of the above applies to this show. Paulette---Tell me how you really feel!

Hmm, nope, I can’t imagine watching this! Thanks for the handy review, PCN ~ I’ll know not to be excited if they start advertising it over here. Funny, con men on screen can be appealing in spite of their ethics {thinking Sawyer on LOST just for starters} but this one doesn’t sound like it’s going to have that charisma.

I’m with EIREGO. I’m not drawn at all to this. Is Jerry Springer producing? Thanks, Elyse.

The thing that I have the most problem with was why I would want to root for someone who only seems to be in love with one of the two women (Eloise Mumford) and barely seems to care for the other (Adrianne Palicki) and scamming them both. What, as a viewer, are we supposed to relate to? Why is this on TV? It comes off like a bad Dear Abby or Ann Landers letter. Seriously, whoever greenlighted this show should get a bat up side the head.

Here in the D/FW area LONE STAR is being touted in a local commercial as being made in Texas by Texans to be watched by Texans – some drivel like that. After seeing the previews of this new series I am not impressed. Am tired of these cheesy good-ole-boy shows. And I live in a world of “bubbas” anyway. Lol! Wolk is mighty cute but the storyline + everything fall flat. I can head to the Ft Worth Stockyards for cheesy entertainment. At least it would be live. Lol!
