"Con Law" -- 10/24/1997
The trio meets its new FBI contact (Mia Korf) in L.A. and is asked to gather evidence against a high-priced defense attorney (Xander Berkeley) who often works outside the law. -- TV Guide
The guys go to L.A. to help with a case and end up staying. Much to the initial display of Agent Kowalski.
"In Concert" -- 10/31/1997
After an investigation into bootleg CDs reveals murders, Ice (Ice-T) poses as a country singer, Charlie as his manager, and Alphonse as a photographer. Glen Campbell has a cameo. -- TV Guide
Ice invents a new music style, "Redneck Rap". He becomes the latest musical sensation. Decide for yourself if this is something society needs. :)
"Con Artist" -- 11/07/1997
Ice (Ice-T) poses as a thief in order to catch an art-gallery owner whose lucrative sideline is selling stolen masterpieces. And Alphonse (Costas Mandylor) pretends to be the man's latest customer. -- TV Guide
One of the few episodes where Chris actually participates in the con.
"Contact Sport" -- 11/14/1997
Assigned to crack a counterfeiting ring, the trio takes a curcuitous route involving car hijacking, basketball-game betting and high stakes golf matches with Ice (Ice-T) as a duffer. -- TV Guide
One of the longest routes from point A to point B; the Players definitely did not walk in a straight line.
"Con Amore" -- 11/22/1997
In order to thwart a major arms dealer, Ice (Ice-T) and his cohorts (Costas Mandylor, Frank John Hughes) team up with one of his ex-partners, whom he calls "the best con artist I ever met." -- TV Guide
Ex-partner/ex-girlfriend, Laura is the most annoying con artist I've ever seen on tv.

The trio (Ice-T, Costas Mandylor, Frank John Hughes) is arrested following an armored-truck robbery in which $5 million was stolen; and each gives his perspective of how and why the theft was arranged. -- TV Guide
I didn't expect the ending (even when I watched it for the second time).
"Three of a Con" -- 12/12/1997
An elaborate scheme to get retribution from a man who cheated a group of small investors (one of whom was Ice's aunt) involves a high-stakes poker game. -- TV Guide
I'd like to know how many of the "problems" Charlie expected (and how many he didn't).
"Mint Condition" -- 01/02/1998
The trio (Ice-T, Costas Mandylor, Frank John Hughes) engineers a scam involving a baseball trading-card valued at $200,000 in order to catch a mobster and his henchman. -- TV Guide
Charlie's dad plays some interesting cons. Why have the original at all if you never plan on selling it.
"Confidence Man" -- 01/09/1998
Ice, Alphonse and Charlie get a helping hand from one of their old con-artist partners as they target a New Age television guru who is ripping off his gullible followers. -- TV Guide
Enter Corky Summons. Unlike some of their friends in previous episodes I thought Corky was great. She should have guest starred in more than one episode.

After a deal to purchase illegal weapons is thwarted. Chris (Mia Korf) is kidnapped by one of the criminals and the gang has to try and rescue her. -- TV Guide

An episode with an interesting twist.
"Con-Strained" -- 03/13/1998
The trio attempts to catch two kidnappers who have taken the son of a man who's estranged from his mobster father; and Alphonse (Costas Mandylor) agrees to deliver the ransom. -- TV Guide
Alphonse the accountant. (You know stereotypes aren't nice, even for accountants.) :)
"Conspiracy" -- 03/27/1998
While investigating a "billion-dollar" racket involving bootlegged gasoline, the trio discovers that there's a leak at the FBI and tries to find the agent who's working with the mob. -- TV Guide
You know, if this series is anything to base your opinion on, half of the FBI is crooked. :)
"Contamination" -- 04/03/1998
The trio tries to prevent the release of a deadly powder that will within three blocks if $100 million isn't transferred to a foreign bank account by noon the next day. -- TV Guide
A great Charlie episode. This is one of my favorites. (I wonder why.) :)

It's learned that the hit on a college student was ordered by the "dragon lady" CEO of a software manufacturer, so Royo (Costas Mandylor) poses as a programmer to catch her. -- TV Guide
According to NBC Charlie posed as the computer programmer. Later, for some reason, she hires Alphonse as an assassin (poor Charlie). And Charlie doesn't get the girl - again. :(

The paroled trio returns to New York where Ice tries to reform a young thief; Alphonse fights with his son's drug supplier; and Charlie tries to stop an insurance scam. -- TV Guide
