Crime
The Leverage team go after a greedy debt collector who rips off taxpayers, but discover that he is also financing an armed militia group.
To take on a crooked car dealer, the team go undercover as car thieves.
"Get ready to get even." Meet Nathan Ford, a former insurance investigator who spent his professional career dedicated to the company that he recovered millions in stolen goods for. This same insurance company would refuse a medical claim for his son that would take the life of the innocent… More child. Unemployed and teetering on the edge, Nate is approached about a Robin Hood-like scheme. He enlists the help of the best thieves and grifters in the business, and with their help, he steals from the rich and gives to the poor to help balance the crooks in high power positions. He and his team help provide...leverage. Leverage is produced by Electric Entertainment.
The Studio Job Episode #34 Original air date: July 18, 2010 From TNT.tv: "To take down a corrupt record executive, the LEVERAGE team infiltrates the world of country & western music and inadvertently turns Eliot into a genuine country music star." Please use this thread to discuss the… More episode.
So we have to wait just like Nate to find out what her real name is. I was thinking that maybe she based Sophie on her real name, and my name Sonja is a form of "Sonya" which is a form of "Sophia". Nah! Probably just a shot in the dock! Watch it'll be something like "Jane", oh wait Gina… More already played a "Jane" on "Coupling" (another great show, though no longer on :( of course if it was Gina wouldn't be on "Leverage", oh well!).

A shameless, fantastic Robin Hood rip-off hide show
Leverage is a brilliant, intelligent, and memorable show that keeps you interested throughout an episode. The characters are intriguing, and the perspective of thieves being good guys is interesting. Nate, the mastermind, is vital because his occasional drunkenness is what makes the show unpredictable. Sophie is an entertaining "grifter," and Elliot is a dry-humored tough guy. My two favorite characters are parker and Hardison. Parker's mix of quirkiness and brilliance provides much of the humor. Hardison's quick-witted comments and nerd-like behavior also makes up some of the comedy in the show. These aren't A-list actors, but the acting isn't bad enough to distract you from the plotline, and it gets better later in the series.
The plot of each episode is quick and exciting; each episode makes sure to provide you that Ah-ha! epiphany moment. All in all, this show is good; can't wait to see how the rest of season three plays out!
after movies like "the italian job" and "ocean's 11-13" im surprised it took this long for a show like this to come along. Well, it was worth the wait, the cast and characters are incredible. They play off each other very well and bring something new to the table. They really do feel like a family, dysfunctional, but nevertheless a family. The writing is funny, quick and has a different feel to it for each character..much like in life. Theres nothing worse than a show where although the writing may be smart and funny each character acts the same way. Well theres no problem like that with Leverage. I recently started watching the show and i started from the beginning and every episode has only made me want to watch the show more and more. This show is a gem and i can only hope it sticks around and gets any and all recognition t deserves.
What can I say about this show? I just love it! hide show
This show is amazing, the plot is great, the actors too. I just went through all episodes, one is never enough.
What I love about this show are the five different personalities, different backgrounds, different ways to look at the world. Strangers that come together and become a team, a family.
I love every single character but my favorite is Parker. Her way to look at the world, seeing her change from episode to episode. I think she is one of the characters that most evolves, the one that bit by bit lets someone new back in, allows herself to care for someone else.
I'll admit she is a bit strange but that's what makes me like her most, the same fact.
I hope you love this show as much as I do, can't wait for the next episode!
This show is perfect, I love it. The action the characters, its just wow. I especialy like parker. she is just adorable. hide show
Action and suspence, with a touch of Genuis. This show just blows me away. I can never just watch one episode I always watch at least 2 or 3 at once. Probably why I have blown right through 2 seasons in less then a month. The actors are good, the writing good. In all this is one of my fav shows. I cannot wait for season 3. I would recomend this show to everyone. One of my fav characters is Parker, then Nate. I really like the fact that this show is about helping people without the killing. They are smart, they are like modren Sun Tzu. They get the bad guys to turn themselfs in. In the end they win and get what they need.
Some times the bad guys are the best good guys. A gang of ex-criminals are recruited to be the modern day robin hoods providing retribution to thoses hurt or robbed by those who have all the power who take what they want and give nothing back. hide show
The show has it all action, romance and fullfills all the cliche's. Think Hustle but a lot, lot , lot more exciting. There is comedy and exciting with great characters that you soon love including Christian Kane most likely best known for playing "Lindsy" in "Angel".
Leverage gives it's audiance everything it's got. With great writing, great acting everything a TV show needs. All this keeps your full attention on tv, laptop or phone screen. This show is a must watch for anyone who loves TV or just someone who has 43 miniutes free and wants to kill time. If you can't find time to watch, MAKE TIME or MAKE AN EXCUSE.
