How many scenarios would you have fallen for in the first season of The Con TV show on ABC? As we all know, the Nielsen ratings typically play a big role in determining whether a TV show like The Con is cancelled or renewed for season two. Unfortunately, most of us do not live in Nielsen households. Because many viewers feel frustrated when their viewing habits and opinions aren’t considered, we invite you to rate all of the first season episodes of The Con here. *Status Update Below.
An ABC documentary series, The Con program is narrated by Whoopi Goldberg. The show explores the troubling tales of people taken in by claims and promises that proved too good to be true. It delves into a myriad of topics, from identity fraud and misleading romance to the high-profile college admission scandal and Fyre Festival. The reports reveal how the victims were fooled and the cost of their false trust — both emotionally and financially. Episodes feature interviews with key people caught up in the scams, including victims and eyewitnesses, and, in some cases, law enforcement and the perpetrators themselves.

*7/26/22 update: The Con has been renewed for a second season by ABC.
I really like the concept of The Con. I’ve liked the show and got hooked on it, but where is it now?
It should be renewed
I love this show. I was looking forward to seeing more episodes. Whoopi is a wonderful narrator!
Please air more episodes! The Con gave me another show to look forward to every week so please bring it back!
Please don’t cancel. This is a great show. I’ve been looking for it and noticed I couldn’t find it. Please RENEW.
Do not cancel
I do not understand why the tv show The Con was cancelled. With only three shows the program has not been given a chance for viewers to watch and form an opinion. I have enjoyed ever episode thus far so please bring it back.
This show The Con was so interesting I can’t believe it’s not on anymore. Please bring it back it’s interesting and television since the COVID has gotten so boring and this was something I looked forward to seeing.
The Con has been very insightful and I like Whoopi Goldberg. I like the show.
Please get another narrator!!!!! All l think of is that loud mouth on the view, l can’t stand her anymore!! I won’t watch the con!!
Same. She sounds over rehearsed and it drives me crazy. Plus I just can’t stand her. I wish someone else would narrate.
Macchiarini was living his own Prince Charming fantasy, his own reality show.
1st episode worst episode … Are u kidding me? She “conned” herself into thinking she found ‘Prince Charming’ (because he does not exist, stop watching Disney fairytales and grow up). Most women want to be swept off their feet but most likely it won’t happen or won’t last and that’s where she duped herself (she was dreaming and did not want to wake up from the ‘dream’. Need to be thankful she didn’t make it to an altar as her marriage would have been a bigger sham and more humiliating.). Being duped (especially if your money was not taken) is… Read more »
I enjoyed this program. Makes me aware of how a con man can get away with almost anything..
I must agree with Karen that it wasn’t the worst show that I saw in the air. The female was their own worst enemies and they didn’t see the sign that was popping up in front of their face. I believe that the show will be the renewal for the second season.
It wasn’t terrible. But I found it slow and I had little sympathy for the woman who was conned by the doctor. It’s hard to believe she didn’t Google him early on in the relationship so all of that grief would have been avoided. She is supposedly a great documentary producer. That is also hard to believe. She doesn’t appear to be terribly bright. Weren’t her friends at all suspicious of the incredible too good to be true story? Whoopi Goldberg’s talents are wasted as the narrator. I might watch the next episode if the story is more interesting and… Read more »
Good morning Whoopi,
It’s a pleasure always knowing that your voice speaks to so many. I’m your sincere fan. The Con was an eye opener and can’t wait to see more. The part that got me was how she believed his phone call – about going to see the Pope!!! I choked on my tea!!! Also Whoopi, I was so disappointed that I can’t watch my West Wing, Aaron has given HNO MAX the privilege and it breaks my heart.
I never miss you on anything you’re apart of. God bless you and stay safe.
Sincerely,
Patricia Gigola
