Anyone else watching this hidden gem on Bravo? Probably my fav program on the box at the moment; can't believe a terrestrial channel hasn't picked it up. Gina Bellman, mmmmm..........
With Leverage, Sons of Anarchy & Spartacus, Bravo has picked up some top stuff recently. Really hope VM obtains rights to Bravo HD when it becomes available.

I've been waching Leverage on Bravo since the first series earlier this year (the USA are already onto series 3!). It'll look even better when/if Bravo HD launches.
This show is typical of what terrestrial channels are missing. Only a couple of years ago this would have been on C4 or FIve but let's not forget they both missed out on "Boston Legal" too until it was near an end.
I agree with the comment re the gorgeous Gina Bellman but I've found Timothy Hutton's acting in Series 2 quite wooden. I wonder if he's just pushing the "recovering alcoholic" act just a little too much?
I'm watching it at US pace and have watch each eps many-many times. Though I'm not a fan of Ginas, it's Parker all the way for me
Particular highlights are (1) The Bank Job (2) The Jury Job and the "What would Parker do" bit from another ep.
Parker and the Hacker guy are so funny.
First few eps of Season 2 we a bit off, but the last one aired was good :-)

I'm sorry, but this is a very poor Hustle substitute. If it wasn't for Gina . . .
- No way hoezay. The Hustle team are all just too damn smug with themselves and at just how clever they're being... bleh. The Leverage crew are just fun
Have to agree Gina Bellman isn't my favourite within the show but the rest of the cast i love.
one thing (i'll spoiler tag just in case)
also, During a the episode where Elliot sings... i didn't actually know he was a singer until that!
but its pretty catchy

Jeri Ryan! Slobber! Slobber!
yes i have to agree i love Mr Kane, he is my ideal man, lovely voice plays guitar and totally hot and a nice guy too
And where Parker 'thinks' Gina is dead - looks at coffin, pinches her to see if she is a ghost, etc:D
from the music , the style , i was taken back to Hustle and it is only the fact that Hustle is not on until January that i will probably stick with this.
But if Both shows were on then i would find it difficult to choose leverage as Hustle is where my loyalty lies.
I never liked Hustle - never managed to get to the end of an episode without getting bored and channel flicking, Leverage on the other hand is brilliant and one of my favourite shows,
I just love Ryan have done since Voyager & Shark & the Dracula movie.
