"Leverage" Discussion

So, anyone watching this new series on TNT? It's called a modern day "Robin Hood", as a group of thieves (headed by Timothy Hutton) steal from rich companies to help out poor people that the companies screwed over. The first episode aired on Sunday (commercial-free to boot!) and there's a new episode on tonight right now.
In addition, Gina Bellman (Jane from "Coupling", Claire from "Jekyll") is one of the thieves.

Thanks for starting this thread. I think that "Leverage" is really going to be a good show as the episodes get along. I know that it only has a 12 episode run this time, but I will betcha that it gets renewed for a 'second season' really soon.
The cast is top rate, and the first two shows were really good. I like the little twists and turns each show has taken to get their point across that they "aren't thieves, just people who use a little Leverage"!!
Watch this show, I think it will be a favorite of many of here at UD.

Yay, another fan of "Leverage"!
I also have a feeling it will easily be renewed for a second season. And it's definitely a breath of fresh air for primetime. Most hourlong dramas are getting more into the nitty-gritty and are hardly any "fun" anymore.
