One of my favorite show’s on television, is TNT’s Leverage. It will be returning for it’s third season of exciting adventure. If you don’t follow this show, let me give you a brief description of it. This show centers around a team of thieves that help people that have been wronged by the rich and powerful. This team is led by Nate Ford (Timothy Hutton) a former insurance investigator.
I was sent the first episode of season three to review for my blog. The end of the second season showed Nate Ford being arrested and the rest of the team set free. This season begins with Nate in jail, and the team trying to figure out how to get him out.
This episode also sets the tone for the rest of the season. A new adversary is introduced, and Nate Ford goes back to his drinking ways. Sophie Devereaux (Gina Bellman), has returned to the team and told everyone her real name. Everyone, that is, except Nate. She’s not sure if he deserves to know.
I really enjoy watching the interactions between this ensemble cast of characters. This show is very fast paced. If you miss a moment, you will miss an important detail of the storyline. Every detail is important to the final outcome of the show. Even with all the action going on, there is still time to include character development and interaction, without detracting from the main storyline.
You can watch TNT’s Leverage on Sunday’s, at 9:00PM. The new season begins June 20, with two back-to-back episodes.
