Overview
Neal Caffrey is a con-man who was captured after a three-year game of cat-and-mouse. With four months left after serving a four-year sentence, he escapes from a maximum security federal prison to find Kate, his girlfriend. Peter Burke, the FBI agent who captured Caffrey, catches him again. This time, Caffrey gives Burke information about evidence in another case; however, this information comes with a price: Burke must have a meeting with Caffrey. At this meeting, Caffrey proposes a deal: he will help Burke catch other criminals as part of a work-release program. Burke agrees, after some hesitation. Within a day of being released from prison, Caffrey already lives in one of the most expensive houses in Manhattan, after convincing an elderly widow to rent him her guest room. After catching the elusive Dutchman, Caffrey has proven to Burke that he will help him, and that he won't try to escape again. However at the same time, Caffrey is still looking for his girlfriend, whom he believes is in trouble.

Characters
Neal Caffrey (Matt Bomer):[2] Neal Caffrey is a cunning con-man put in prison by Peter Burke. After a visit from his girlfriend which ended badly, he escapes from prison and tries to find her. He goes to the apartment that they once shared before he was put in prison, but she is not there. Burke finds him waiting there within the first few minutes of the first episode. After Caffrey gives him valuable information, Burke sends him back to prison with the promise that he will visit a week from then. Upon visiting, Caffrey approaches him about becoming a consultant of sorts, but Burke refuses. Upon Burke thinking it over later, he changes his mind and Caffrey is later released into Burke's custody to assist him in catching white collar criminals, those who, for the most part, avoid violence and instead use their wits to commit crimes.

Special Agent Peter Burke (Tim DeKay):[3] Agent Peter Burke is brilliant at what he does, due to his knack for getting into the criminal mind. He caught Neal Caffrey, and is the only one to have ever accomplished this feat. In the pilot, when Caffrey escapes with four months left on his sentence, Burke knows that something happened. He apprehends Caffrey and, in return for Caffrey helping him on a difficult case, he later has him released to assist him in catching white collar criminals.

Elizabeth Burke (Tiffani Thiessen): An event planner and the wife of Peter Burke. She is supportive and understanding of his work and long hours away. An intelligent woman herself, Elizabeth is able to discuss Peter's cases with him, and at times makes a meaningful contribution to them.

Mozzie (Willie Garson): A con-man himself, Mozzie is Neal's side-kick and confidante. He provides a variety of help to Neal, including supplying information, analyzing evidence and impersonating various law enforcement agents. Mozzie is the only other person who knows the whole story of Kate's kidnapping, and the clues leading to her.

Recurring Characters
Kate (Alexandra Daddario): Neal's girlfriend, who was kidnapped by a mysterious man, identifiable only by his ring, shortly before Neal was to be released from prison. Kate has left a series of cryptic clues to her whereabouts, which Neal must decode and follow.

Agent Lauren Cruz (Natalie Morales): A junior agent recently transferred to Peter's team, she made a study of Neal while a student at Quantico.

Special Agent Jones (Sharif Atkins): An FBI agent working with Peter.

Agent Reese Hughes (James Rebhorn): Peter's boss at the FBI, who is less than impressed with Neal.



I would have to give this a 9.9/10 because I still like The Mentalist a bit better :O
