I watched Hustle on AMC last night and enjoyed it. It's about a team of grifters who do long cons on greedy people, and it's also about the cops who are trying to catch them. It was nice to see Robert Vaughan again, looking just like a somewhat older Napoleon Solo, and the whole team did a good job. The style is sort of retro '70s, which was fine with me. Plenty of plot holes,and the big "twist" was obvious to me from the git-go, but certainly good enough to encourage me to watch again.

Robert Vaughan, a mere 73 per IMDB, now has the distinction -- if you can call it that -- of being the answer to the trivia question: Who is the sole surviving member of the Magnificent Seven?
