Finished watching season #1 of Leverage last night. Definitely hooked now.
With a couple of exceptions, it's a season that steadily improves as it goes. Or, at least, most of my favourites are in the last batch of episodes - The Juror #6 Job, The Bank Shot Job, The Twelve Step Job...
...and The First David Job. Which has to be my favourite of the whole bunch. Right from the first scene, it's clear that this one's not going quite to plan. And that it's personal.
The season finale ('The Second David Job') is a great, classic con - and equally personal. But it's not as dark... and the last third(?) of 'The First David Job' is absolutely great stuff...
(I've deliberately avoided major spoilers in the post, but comments may get some...)
