10 TV Shows You Need To Stop Sleeping On
2. Sneaky Pete (Amazon)
Sneaky Pete stars Giovanni Ribisi as a con man named Marius Josipovic who is recently released from prison and must assume the identity of his cellmate to save his skin. He then reunites with his fellow prisoner’s estranged family who he gets entangled with and comes to rely upon to help him survive all while maintaining the lie.
Ribisi plays the titular Pete who is a con man known for manipulating people through elaborate scams and misdirects by himself or with others. The length he is willing to go and the personas he takes on to convince his marks are what make Sneaky Pete stand out among the rest. The show feels reminiscent to that of the Oceans Eleven movies, smoothly keeping you guessing until the final moments.
The series is brought to audiences by the incredibly talented Bryan Cranston, and he also plays the first seasons main villain. Seeing Walter White go full evil is a perfect reason to give this crisp, sharp, and seamless Amazon exclusive a chance.
Sneaky Pete’s third season just debuted in its entirety on Amazon Prime so now is the ideal time to catch up on this fun crime drama.
