Well, at least it's on TNT... The way things are going, nowadays, F*X or any of the majors would cancel it as soon as it hit the airwaves.

It does look interesting-surprisingly so.
It's becoming clearer as the networks start retreating from day after day that all the really interesting SF,fantasy and off-beat stuff like Leverage is going to come more and more from non-network sources. And,as long as we get plenty of it,that's certainly okay with me :) Best wishes, Scott This post has been edited by buffyverseforever: Nov 21 2008, 05:59 PM |

QUOTE(DarthMarley @ Nov 24 2008, 10:36 AM)  [Leverage video clip] Yech... No thanks... They ripped sounds off of Star Trek TNG, and the rest looks like a bad conglomeration of A-Team (mentioned above), Mission: Impossible, and maybe like, uh, Get Smart. (Well, ok, not really "Get Smart", but still...) This is the best that TNT can come up with? I'm glad JMS no longer has to associate with them. |

The dialog is a bit stilted.
But, it is good cheesy fun. If you like Burn Notice then this show might be in that style as well. -------------------- "Science is one cold hearted bitch with a 14 inch strap-on." |

That's exactly how I took it. I'm sure I'll watch and get some chuckles. Anything besides reality tv for me, thanks! I do enjoy Burn Notice so. -------------------- Have you ever been to Kiev?

So far, so good. Room for improvement, but think it should develop nicely.

I had enjoyed the pilot, but I sensed the leftist tilt of the main writer and I suppose co-creator of the show coming through.
I don't want to see a damn thing in Leverage that reminds me of one of the writer's political blog posts. If I see more or the typical Bush-hating leftist loon "message television" creep in the the show, then I will not be able to suffer through it. -------------------- "Science is one cold hearted bitch with a 14 inch strap-on." |

Jeez.
Strangely, the world does not revolve around your politics. The pilot was a scream!! Verry MI... but I gotta say it... Firefly!! " "We're not thieves, well, we are thieves, but the point is... we're not takin' what's his..." IF... you were conscious during the entire show... the point wasn't politics, but AGAIN!!!! Thievin'! A portion of a company using the company to do evil deeds is ... just business.. in some quarters. I know personally a couple of frauds, embezzlers, and miscreants that used different entities to mask their wickid deeds. Damn... I LOVED the plot... the twists... and the recovery time bein' instantaneous... well, that is just hilarious. "What does that make us?" "Big Damn Heroes, sir" "Ain't we just." I look VERY forward to re-watching this eps... and anticipating the next ones.... Is it sunday yet? -------------------- You can't stop the signal, Mal

QUOTE Jeri Ryan is set to recur on TNT's "Leverage." On the sophomore drama about a group of vigilaties in pursuit of bringing down bigwigs, she will play Tara, a smart-ass, street-wise con woman whom Sophie (Gina Bellman) calls on for help and who gets sucked into the Leverage family.

QUOTE (DarthMarley @ Jun 26 2009, 05:04 AM) So, you and HOC should be thrilled to see the return of buxom to the screen... I'm delighted to see her working, cause I like her in front of the camera-- but she does do good work behind, as well. -------------------- You can't stop the signal, Mal
