This is the perfect show to grab a bag of pistachios and finish them. there are so many twists and turns in the show and it also makes you think about your own personal safety and the people behind you that may be out to get something from you whatever the case maybe. This world is full of sneaky Pete's, but this one is the kind that I enjoyed watching ! WE WANT MORE!

Binge watched both season over a long weekend. This is a slow burner, which you need to watch without any distractions. Otherwise you end up either rewinding to understand how 'Pete' created some of his cons, or how the production team managed to intermingle 4 or 5 story lines into the series. Really hope this series continues as the characters are all believable, and the acting/staging couldn't be better. Giovanni Ribisi plays a very convincing role along with the rest of the actors, to the point that on the last episode of series 2 I had to rewind from the warehouse scene (with the other cons) to realise he was acting panic (as an actor).I advise you to watch other films/series Giovanni has played in, to see how diverse he needs to be for 'Sneaky Pete'.

The best show I've seen in a long time. Maybe since Shut Eye. BUT, there is one thing I don't understand and can't find an answer anywhere.In Season 2 when Marius brings Pete home for dinner, Pete is shown eating left handed but Marius, who is sitting right next to him, is eating right handed. Having a few southpaws in my family, it is not something you forget. You always know which siblings, grandchildren, even cousins are left handed.Was this a huge goof on the writers part or is something else up?

Amazon's American crime drama "Sneaky Pete" _ created by David Shore and Bryan Cranston, and starring Giovanni Ribisi ("Avatar," "My Name Is Earl") _ is in a league of its own. There's really nothing quite like it.Edgy, gritty, shocking, ironic, poignant, hilarious _ and ultimately, completely satisfying _ the series, whose second season premiered last month, is binge-worthy in the extreme. In fact, try not to, I dare you. The second season is even better than the first, which, if you saw the first, seems impossible.Think "The Sting" meets "The Wire," with a smidgeon of "Pulp Fiction" and "Get Shorty." For those of a certain age, throw in "Maverick" and Jim Rockford, and let it come to a boil. Sprinkle lightly with pixie dust, garlic and a dash of arsenic. There now.The story revolves around freshly released convict Marius Josipovic (Ribisi), who adopts the identity _ and family _ of his cell mate, Pete Murphy.Oh, boy, what a family. And what an ex-con. Maybe they deserve each other. And maybe it's a match made in ... no, not up there ... well, anyway, you get the drift.What a cast: in addition to the incredible Mr. Ribisi, it includes Marin Ireland, Shane McRae, Libe Barer, Michael Drayer, Peter Gerety and Margo Martindale.Not a weak link in the bunch, or in any of the supporting characters. A "family" dinner in one of the second season's final installments is so wonderfully bizarre and riveting, with each actor brilliantly reflecting the individual backstories, as conflicting as they are, that it's impossible not to be sucked in and left almost breathless.I wholeheartedly recommend this. To more fully appreciate it, I suggest watching the first season (you'll binge that too) before getting into the second.And did I mention that the audience sometimes gets conned, too?Part of the fun.
