Leverage on TNT

[carrrnuttt]

I can't believe there isn't a thread for this show in here yet (I searched). If indeed there is one I missed in my search, I apologize in advance.

Anyhow.

For a show that seemed real thin on premise, it turned out pretty good. I loved the premiere better than the 2nd episode, but the 2nd episode wasn't bad at all. It's like Ocean's 11 for TV. Smart humor, too.

Has anyone else watched?

yes i saw it and i loved it! i missed the first ep. but the 2nd was definitely convincing. I love the diverse and quirky cast!

Already love this show. Reminds me a bit of Hustle, but with a different enough vibe to it. Plus, Timothy Hutton = awesomeness.

Gina Bellman. :heart:

I meant to check this out. I see there's a repeat on later.

You have to watch the 1st episode.

The implausible, but creative way they got started is a must see, I think. It'll make you appreciate the characters better. One good thing about being on TNT, you're pretty much guaranteed a repeat.

Liked it, sure hope it stays around for a time

My woman is a Christian Kane fan since Angel, so if he's in it, she will watch it. It's not that bad, reminds me of an old fashioned TV show from the 70's and 80's.

Ocean's 11/A-Team. I like this show.

It's good silly fun, but it could be a LOT better directed. Christian Kane kinda feels like he's channeling Adam Baldwin on Chuck (which is always good). And the blonde's cute as a button, but not that great an actress. Might be the director though, haven't seen enough to judge. Hutton, of course, is awesome.

Holy crap, almost forgot this comes on tonight.

 

[The Major]

Excellent new show.

It's like Joss Whedon doing a heist tv series.

Everything on it has lived up to its impressive previews.

i really liked this show. i missed the beginning of the first episode, but when i tuned in to when it went to commercial break, it hooked me and i didn't change the channel.

that rarely happens these days. now that i know i can see it online, i might rewatch that first part of episode one.

I'm really enjoying this show, and it's on TNT, so I kind of feel like it might not be as prone to getting the plug pulled as it would if it was, say on Fox. But yeah I like this a lot, good cast and a solid premise. Plus they just brought in the new insurance guy, and I loved that guy in BSG.

 

[carrrnuttt]

I thoroughly enjoyed tonight's episode. This is a very smart show.

"That was the worst night of my life."
"Come on man, you've been in worse situations."

"No. That was the worst."

I like timothy hutton and christian kane...hope the show sticks around

 

[carrrnuttt]

Did anyone watch last night's eppy? Parker and Hardison showed some surprising depth in that moment they had by the van. "More than a team."

 

[carrrnuttt]

Wow - am I the only one who still watches this show anymore? Last night was another great episode.

 

[wiegeabo]

Still loving this show. Last night's episode was only feeling ok to me, until the end when the real plan was revealed. Nicely done.

 

[ComicChick]

i watched last night's episode. i enjoyed it.

i chuckled a lil at Christian Kane's character in the kitchen. BAM!

Great news. TNT just gave Leverage a 15 episode second season!
