About the Show
Based on the popular 1988 MGM film and set on the French Riviera. Lawrence Jameson makes his lavish living by conning rich ladies out of their money, while Freddy Benson swindles women with fabricated sob stories. After meeting, they attempt to work together but find the town isn't big enough for two con artists. They agree on a high-stakes wager: the first to extract $50,000 from heiress Christine Colgate wins, and the other must leave town. A hilarious battle of cons ensues.
