Skyler Stone of Whammy! and Dog Eat Dog fame now has his own show on Comedy Central called "Con". It premieres April 6. The networks sure are desperate.

Why? Were you under the assumption that Skyler was a 'really out-there' tax attorney? Or a 'wild' accountant?

He, like many of the contesti on these lower end game shows, are struggling actors in LA looking for a little face time and a big break. Skyler got his.

Whether it's a bad show or not, why don't you just wait until April 6, m'kay ?

On imdb, they mention Skyler used the money he made from doing commercials to fund the pilot himself. When Comedy Central saw it, they bought it up right away. To that I say more power to him.

Going by the plotline, it sounds like a reworking of Oblivious. Eh, could be worse. I agree with Matt though, watch before judging.
