agt_spookyLeverage is BACK, baby!!
And it was definitely firing on all cylinders last night. I have to admit I was nervous, wondering if Rogers and Downey could keep up the excellent level of writing from last season. I needn't have worried. :-)
So let's chat a bit about The Beantown Bailout Job...
Welcome back Nate, Sophie, Parker, Hardison and Eliot! I've missed you. :-) I actually got double the Leverage dosage yesterday as my first season DVDs arrived a couple hours before the show came on. And I'm thrilled to see that the episodes on the DVDs are in the order they were supposed to have been shown in on TNT. Can't wait to get to the extras.
Ok, so, The Beantown Bailout Job.
The only thing I disliked in the entire episode was the horrible special effect right at the beginning of the car flying up into the air and flipping upside down over Nate's head. Really badly done! (like the airplane landing on the road last season) Word to Rogers and Downey - guys, this show really doesn't need special effects. This isn't Star Trek. :-)
I absolutely loved everyone showing up at Sophie's opening night of Sound of Music (I only wish we'd gotten to see her sing! LOL!). Did you hear Parker picking up her ticket and they guy asking for her first name and her saying "Parker. Just one name." Will we ever find out her first name? :-)
How funny was it that they're all miserable NOT being the good guys?? LOL! Loved it!
Parker/Hardison still continues to own me. That line from Hardison to her, "I did look for you for six months." And her line back to him about people being like locks, and you have to have patience and fiddle with them. Awww! They're so freaking cute! I haven't liked a het couple on TV since Mulder and Scully.
Ok, how freaking HOT was it when Eliot picks up that baseball bat and twirls it over his head?? God DAMN Christian Kane, how is it possible for you to get even more amazing from one season to the next?
Speaking of Eliot, the BEST line last night from Parker: "What are the odds that Eliot's crotch will actually explode?" And then Eliot practically dancing on the sidewalk, trying to get the little explosives out of his pants! ROTFL!!
Let's keep going about Eliot, shall we? *g* I actually jumped when he got "shot" three times. I had completely forgotten about the spoiler I'd read that someone gets three slugs to the chest. Here I thought that he'd have a bulletproof vest on or something, but I'd swore I'd seen blood squirt out when he got shot. Ketchup! LOL! Brilliant!
The ending was fantastic, too. Here I thought it was over when Nate decided not to have a drink after finding out about Sophie's boyfriend, but wait! Looks like the Leverage crew has decided to move in to Nate's condo 'cause Hardison now owns the building! LOL! Eliot coming through the wall with the chainsaw was awesome. :-)
So there you have it! A few of my thoughts. Want to share some of YOURS? :-)

I am so glad the show is back.

Yay for Leverage!
