Talk:It Takes a Thief (2005 TV series)

message: I made a major revision of the page, mainly taking out the breakdown by segment and adding information on the hosts.  Let me know how I did, since I'm not entirely sure I did it "right".
I'm not sure exactly how to source things, but I used the Discovery website and the IMDB.  The pages are already in the "external links" section.
And for the record, try not to use the term "robbery" or variants on the page.  The show does not deal in taking things from people by force.  The hosts are burglars.  --UsaSatsui 02:12, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

message: The break-ins often ignore obvious entry points like sliding glass doors in the backyards, and during the robberies themselves the intruder often needlessly breaks property (kicking a cardboard sign from a child's room down a flight of stairs, smacking over a kitchen chair randomly, etc).
I haven't checked myself, but i wouldn't be surprised to find reviewers pointing out this sort of thing —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.42.238.59 (talk • contribs) 
*Breaking a sliding glass door doesn't seem like a good idea to me.  That's a whole lot of glass to shatter, and I bet it makes one hell of a noise (plus, it could be dangerous).  Jon's the thief, I'm willing to believe his judgment here.  As for needlessly knocking things around...well, burglars do that.  Jon has said on a couple of occasions that sometimes, he's trying to "leave a message" for the owners, but it's not certain he wouldn't be doing it in a real robbery.  Guessing at his motives is just speculation, though, and I wouldn't add any criticism from any reviewers about the robberies themselves unless they happened to be actual burglars doing the criticizing.  --UsaSatsui 03:11, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Criticism? 

message: There is an episode where he's carrying a 62" LCD TV to a van. Now, let's assume he can lift it, like we works out in his spare time on a stolen gym setup. When he gets outside, the TV obviously looks fake, and he drops it. Nothing shatters or etc, and you can even see it bounce a bit.
Later on, he tells the owners that it WAS a fake TV. This just goes to show that the show is setup before hand with fake things for him to break, prolly so he wont get hurt. Pussies.
This show is also a rip-off of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_the_Burglar because the US can't ever not rip off the UK  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mix Bouda-Lycaon (talk • contribs) 07:04, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  This show is rigged and a ripoff 

message: I find it truly fascinating and amazing that I cannot, for the life of me, find any sources, legal or illegal, of any evidence of a DVD release or any possible way to watch any of these episodes online or elsewhere. I searched Hulu, YouTube, Crackle, Amazon, and multiple sites that host links to illegally uploaded copyright content and found: nothing. Not a single trace of any possible way to watch this show, at all.
Does anyone have any idea if they even released any DVDs of the seasons? Even if they only got 100k unique views per episode, then Hulu, Amazon, Netflix, Crackle, etc. could be making potential profits. --Anthonyk747 (talk) 04:33, 4 July 2014 (UTC)
