Leverage -- "The Mile High Job" -- 1/20/09

Leverage

Synopsis:

Spoiler:


The high-tech do-gooders try to expose a business empire's cover-up of a toxic fertilizer, which caused the death of a girl. Nate and Co. target the conniving CEO, but they must take flight when the mogul puts damning evidence on a plane headed to the Cayman Islands.

In a night with nearly nothing to watch, this show made my day.

All the IDs Nate had were actors who played Doctor Who! Ha!

Again, another great show! The computer guy missed the initial job caused he stayed up to late playing WoW. Heh.

Pretty good episode but they should avoid plots that require big CGI shots.

I'm just glad the HD feed was back to normal after last week's stretch-o-vision.

Good episode but Hardison needs to learn to put a plate under his Hot Pocket...and use the CRISPING SLEEVE!

Also cool seeing the Doctor Who and WoW references.

Wow.. Rob Minkoff directed this episode? I know Devlin did a few and Frakes did one. I have to see who else has directed episodes.

I thought that was weird too, then Hurley did the same thing on Lost.

The plane exterior scenes looked really fake, but other than that it was another really cool episode.

The scenes with Hardison in the office building were hilarious. Especially when he was conducting that bullshit meeting.

Gina Bellman is awesome! I love the chemistry she has with Hutton. Not sure where it's going, but I enjoy it.

Elliot cracks me up. Loved the scene where he beat the crap out of that guy in the plane bathroom. It was hilarious that Sophie and Nate got 1st class and he ended up getting stuck in coach.

I look forward to this every week.

I thought since he explained he could get on because he's an air marshall, it wasn't too uncommon for him to be in coach.

Great episode, and yes the CGI was a little shitty. I don't think Eliot IS an air marshall, he just had the badge. I thought they did a really great job telling the story with such limited space. Lots of little cons with the passengers, very fun.

I would like to see the Team Leverage vs Team Hustle. <--- for fans of Leverage, the new series of Hustle started and its good!

...and Team Burn Notice vs The Unit - Alpha Team.
