Question: I have been enjoying the show
Hustle on AMC a great deal, and I was wondering what you thought of it. It seems like the show NBC had hoped
Heist might be. It is so smart and fun. It also does the "wink and nod" to the audience better than most shows on TV. I was wondering where
Hustle is in its run: Is this the first season? Is it successful for AMC? Will there be another season? Is it coming out on DVD? Thanks!
Answer: I like
Hustle quite a bit, too. (I
reviewed it in the magazine's Jan. 30 issue.) Courtesy of AMC, here's the scoop on
Hustle, which, being a British series, airs its seasons a little differently than we usually do. AMC has aired 18 episodes to date, which comprises two seasons of the series overseas. A third season is currently airing on BBC1, and these episodes will air on AMC beginning July 1. No word yet on a DVD release, though it seems like a natural. (And for the record, as I've said before, this column is not a good resource regarding DVD releases, or nonreleases, of TV shows. I simply don't have time to research and report that sort of thing.)
