The critically acclaimed comedy "Con Man," created by and starring Alan Tudyk, tells the story of Wray Nerely, an aging, former sci-fi celebrity who travels the convention circuit to try to cash in on his fame. The story pays homage in a way to Tudyk's own career after his co-starring role in"Firefly," and even features recurring appearances by another "Firefly" alumnus, Nathan Fillion. "Con Man," which began as a short-form web series and garnered two Emmy nominations, also guest-stars an array of sci-fi luminaries, including Tricia Helfer, Amy Acker, Wil Wheaton, Nolan North, Casper Van Dien and Sean Astin.

A-
It's hard to say where the journey Wray begins here will lead him, except that it's based on something clearly authentic. Con Man isn't immediately a love letter to fandom, but that only makes it all the more real. Go to Full Review Aja Romano The Daily Dot 11/15/2017
But Con Man might be a little overhasty in dragging its core base, instead of dragging fans along to the party where everyone is dancing together. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Noneya B 07/20/2024 Show makes me lol and it's great to see all these other actors. See more 05/17/2021 Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion welcome a stellar universe of cast members to this offbeat, hilarious and phenomenal show! Anyone who knows the "Con" world will be highly entertained! See more 07/21/2020 Super creative and funny TV series. it's a pity the episodes are only short, would be 20 minutes long. and where is season 3? See more Liana D 09/23/2017 Sometimes amusing, but mostly kind of depressing. This show is not for the fans portrayed but for people who think fans and conventions are a kind of hell. Does not seem to like or respect science fiction shows or co-workers or other actors or fans or anything about the industry. Plus: lots of recognizable faces. Minus: leaves you depressed See more Read all reviews
