One of Dickens’ most classic, but least-explored characters is finally getting his moment. “The Artful Dodger” premieres on Hulu on Wednesday, Nov. 29, a series which promises to pull back the curtain on the talented but misunderstood thief at long last. The series picks up with Jack Dawkins — Aka the Artful Dodger after he’s seemingly left crime behind, but when an old colleague resurfaces, the draw to return to the wrong side of the law may be too strong to ignore. You can watch with a 30-Day Free Trial of Hulu.

At the end of Charles Dickens’s Oliver Twist, Jack Dawkins, the impish pickpocket known as the Artful Dodger, is presumably transported from London to Australia after being caught attempting to pickpocket. Fagin, the old man who masterminded the gang of juvenile criminals of which Dawkins was a part, had abandoned him, while Oliver Twist had been delivered back into the hands of his wealthy benefactor.

Always renowned for his fast fingers, he has traded life as a pickpocket for a distinguished career as a surgeon. All would be well except that Dodge has racked up a sizeable gambling debt with a cards cheat, Darius (Tim Minchin), who’s threatened to cut off one of his hands unless he pays the money in full.
