This new series premiered last night on ABC and can also be viewed on HULU. It stars Milo Ventimiglia (Heroes, This Is Us) and Catherine Haena Kim (FBI), along with William Fichtner, Sarah Wayne Callies, and Polly Draper. The premise so far is that Ventimiglia's character is a con-man from a family that does these jobs together. Kim is a CIA agent tracking an illegal drug seller. They meet by chance and sparks fly, but neither knows who the other really is.

The first episode is okay, nothing amazing. After the initial scene, there's an extended sequence of the two leads meeting and, ahem, getting to know each other. Some heavy cribbing from the Soderbergh movie Out of Sight. Then the family pulls a heist that isn't really very exciting. Then there's a set up for what will be the longer story arc. I'll keep watching for now. It's a slick-looking show and the two leads are very attractive people, but it needs to do something more to hook me in for the long haul.

Thanks for creating the thread. We watched last night and I came to post, but couldn’t find a thread.

Agree with your assessment. A lot happened in the pilot, but something wasn’t clicking despite the chemistry of the two leads.

The family definitely has a Robin Hood/A-Team vibe. I about lost interest, but the ending definitely added a good twist.

I think it’s an interesting idea, but don’t see this making it for the long haul. The concept can only go so far. It’s like it would have been better positioned as a limited series.

I caught it half way through. Need to watch it from the beginning but I like the two leads. Their chemistry is good, so I will continue to watch.

Episode 2 had an interesting twist at the end.

I’m still not convinced this gets renewed, but could have promise. I feel like it needs time to find its footing. For example, I feel like the introduction of the main lead’s family helped flesh out the character a little bit. Otherwise, the big issue is paint by numbers. That’s why the ending felt interesting.

Also, I still get an A-Team vibe.

Just watched episode 2. I liked the bit where Charlie was snooping in the woman's hotel room, and then there was a bit of a curve ball thrown at us there. The developments with the drug syndicate are interesting. The whole "Milos" con to steal the necklace was pretty cheesy. And I know Charlie and his family are "good guys" and all, but my eyes rolled when they had a conscience about the diamond in the necklace being a stolen antiquity and wanting to see it restored to India. Yeah, okay, thieves with hearts of gold.

So, when will it be revealed that Emma's brother--the one running for Senator--is gay?

I am really liking this show. Catherine is really beautiful and nice on the eyes. Her and Milo have great chemistry together.

Two episodes in, and I can think of worse things than a caper-of-the-week show. I’ll keep watching.

I think this weeks episode (3) was the best yet. Some good character scenes with Emma meeting Charlie's family, and more interesting developments with the drug syndicate.

A few recognizable guest actors in this one. Charlie's basketball buddy was on The Strain and FBI Most Wanted. Charlie's grifter friend is the guy who plays Lenny Bruce on The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. And the actress playing his girlfriend/mark was on DC's Legends of Tomorrow.

Anyone else still watching? I’m seven (out of eight) episodes in, and it’s ok. They made some pretty major developments in the plot, and I think they had to, but it’s just not grabbing me. I had chances Monday and Tuesday to watch the new episode but I chose something else instead.

I'm probably in the minority, but I'm enjoying the show so far.

I'm still watching and still liking it. The female antagonist 'Daphne' has become more interesting, as has the dynamic between Emma and Charlie now that they know each other's true selves.

My wife and I love this show as well. Everyone is just so likeable and the weekly cappers are cool as well.

I think we’re ~3 eps behind. We generally liked it, but agree it’s not grabbing us waiting to watch the next. If it gets renewed we might catch up, otherwise I could see is dropping it.

Shocking ending to this week's episode.

Always nice to see Tony Shalhoub, if only in a couple of brief scenes. They're setting something up, though, so presumably he'll return either next week or next season if this gets renewed.

One more episode to go. I hope they wrap up the McGuire storyline and if there's a season 2 they can start fresh with a new antagonist.

This was canceled last week. Not a big surprise Thankfully, the season finale had aired and it wrapped things up pretty well with the McGuire arc. Some things were set up for next season that are now left hanging (like the thing with Emma's brother's girlfriend), but nothing the audience had any big investment in. The way they left things with Emma was pretty corny with her and two other agents leaving the CIA and vowing to take on corruption in the agency all on their own. Yeah, sure.

I liked this cast together. Hopefully this show raised the profile of Catherine Haena Kim ("Emma") enough to get her more leading roles.

That should be the big takeaway form this series. She was great in this.
I also always love seeing Dr. Tancredi on my TV.
