Johnny: Whoa... That's a whole lotta horse love.

What a action show should be!

Two TV stars John Stamos (Full House) and Melissa George (Home And Away) star in "Thieves" as Johnny and Rita, two professional thieves who, after being caught, are given an ultimatum by the Government: serve time in jail or serve America.

And so, Johnny and Rita are blackmailed into stealing things for the U.S. Government. Of course, the mounting sexual tension is there, the quick wit is there and the cool butt-kicking fight scenes are there. It's perfectly made television.

An hour escape a week - let's face it - the world of 'Thieves' is much more interesting than who's dying on 'E.R.' or who's kissing who on 'Dharma And Greg'! Let's hope this action-packed crime-comedy will be around for a while. 10/10
