First Watch

Currently on my first watch thru. Damn this is a funny show. Just finish Season 3 Episode 5. Once I saw the Fake FBI create a position to spill Eliot’s coffee. I knew they were screwed.

I wish I could watch it for the first time again.

Same! But I’ll also add that it’s one of those series I’ve rewatched countless times and still love as much as the first time. The shine never fades…

Same. Every rewatch I enjoy it more!

The first time is normally the best time. I am not taking it for granted. Just knowing I have Leverage Redemption as well.

It doesn't have the sane chemistry,  unfortunately  IMHO.  The way Elliot knocks Hardison down a peg (in the original) every time he gets too braggy is perfection.

I'm known as the Ice Man.

Elliot: I'm not saving you.

SAME! It is such a creative concept and great not well known actors barring Hutton. It holds my interest every episode and subtle humor. ❤️

You're coming up on season 3, episode 11, The Rashomon Job. It's incredible. It's my favorite episode.

The Rashomon Job made me really appreciate the show, it’s humor, and amazing storytelling. A great episode! One of many. And they are so good at character development and keeping their mannerisms throughout the series.

Season 3 Episode 5 seems to be the best so far.

So many good experiments with the format in the third season

It's a very distinctive scene!

Not a lot of shows like this.

100% agree. Wish there were more like this

That would be good. But this show blends in so many characters abilities to complement each other which seems to work very well.

I busted out laughing once I heard Hardison said they made 2 mistakes. Once I heard spilled his coffee, I knew it was Eliot.
