Hmm, the American version of Hustle. I'll give it a go, but (and please don't take offense anyone) the level of change required for the American audience to appreciate a show is the same level that ruins it for us with British styled humor.

I get to double post!

So I downloaded the pilot - its a direct rip from Hustle, same music score, same camera styles and directing, same character definitions, same team goals, same long cons with the double-double crosses; but it is well done and watchable - so I'll get the rest of them

It's about 10% of Hustle though! It's made up of sexual tension, improbable fight scenes, impossible computer hacking - in other words the stuff needed to appeal to the USA audience (I did mention the not taking offense bit right?) - its a lot more in-your-face, less subtle. There's a scale though, Scottish drama and humor is much more subtle (I'd call it dour) again, that it is lost on me.

I went looking and found a few posts, these sum it up for me: -

I never heard of Hustle before, it might be because of the fact that i dont see it on my Tv program schedule (which is Cnbc-e channel) but i am looking forward to watch it

anyway i like Leverage because it is like ..umm..how can i say..its like Robin Hood
they are generally taking it from the riches who didnt deserve that and give it to the people who did
