Leverage (TNT Tuesday nights @ 7 pm Pacific) Sorry to say that next week's episode (2/24/09) will be the last one for this season (TNT continues the very successful concept of rolling out shows on a different schedule than the "major" networks) but the really good news is that they have already green-lighted this series for another season. I can hardly wait!
The writing is tight with high level humor and no emphasis on forensic science (I like CSI: and Bones but it's refreshing to watch a show that doesn't begin with a "graphic warning" message for a change). The cast includes Timothy Hutton who is excellent but also some relatively unknown newcomers and they form a very cohesive ensemble.
My only complaint might be that some of their lines are not much more than mumbled asides to each other, but thank God for Tivo!
Seriously...check this one out. Full episodes can be found at http://www.tnt.tv/series/leverage/ and you're gonna want to catch up before Season 2.
