After recommending the first season of the Amazon Prime Original Series, "Sneaky Pete," last year, I am going to follow-up after watching season two and re-recommend the show. There is plenty of overlap in this show with the FX standout, "Justified," from years back, with Graham Yost behind the scenes as an executive producer and Desmond Harrington taking on a bigger role and coming into his own as a fine character actor this season.
Beyond that, Giovanni Ribisi is right up his alley with his headline character, as Ethan Embry delivers a great performance in a supporting role.
Overall, the first two seasons of "Sneaky Pete" make for good fun and an easy viewing.

A con man (Giovanni Ribisi) on the run from a vicious gangster (Bryan Cranston) takes cover from his past by assuming the identity of his prison cellmate, Pete, "reuniting" with Pete's estranged family, a colorful, dysfunctional group that threatens to drag him into a world just as dangerous as the one he's trying to escape - and, just maybe, give him a taste of the loving family he's never had.On the verge of starting fresh, Marius (Giovanni Ribisi) is dragged back into the role of Pete Murphy when two thugs—believing he’s Pete—threaten to kill the Bernhardts if he doesn’t take them to Pete’s estranged mother and the millions she stole from their employer. Now Marius must tread a dangerous line to find her and protect the family, all while keeping up the Pete con.
