Watched it for the first time on Sat. Pretty good. My only complaint is that it's "one of those shows" where they don't provide you with all the information to figure out what's going on, then pat themselves cleverly on the back that they pulled one over on the viewer.
I really liked the characters, so that's probably enough for me to tune in for a few more episodes. I also like the semi-humorous style, but judging by the preview for next week, that's not a constant theme.
Oh, and since I'm not British, a lot of what they say (Danny in particular) goes right over my head or I can't understand it (too fast). I've the same complaint with Dr. Who.

The last two Hustle episodes have been excellent, with nicely tricky plots. You're pretty sure what's going on, but a few parts are mysteries until the end, when they explain and fill in the gaps. Very satisfying. The makers of the Mission:Impossible movies need to watch and take notes.
I've Tivo'd a few episodes and really liked them. The very first one I watched, where they hustled the restaurant owner/chef was pretty OK. For some reason, I couldnt understand half of what they were saying... the accent must throw me off. After about three or four episodes I hardly even notice the accents anymore.
Fun show. It keeps you watching, even though you know pretty much how things are going to go down, because you want to see the twist at the end, or just see things fall together.
My favorite so far is the one where they hustle the dirty cop. They are selling some sort of comic book art thing and she thinks shes in control the whole time, but ends up getting totally framed for the crime. Sweet.

I've watched four now. My fav is the dirty cop/comic book con. Sheer brilliance!
Hated the real estate agent one. The lost son/cook was okay, but heart-wrenching.
Excellent show. I now have a Season Pass on TiVo.
