Leverage -- "The Bottle Job" -- 01/20/10

Photobucket

Synopsis:

Spoiler:
To save McRory's bar, Nate and the team tap into a time-tested con to take down a rapacious loan shark. Jonathan Frakes directed the episode.


I guess I liked last week's episode alot more than most of you who are watching here. Anyways, the show is still fun and lighthearted and I'm looking forward to this one.

I wasn't all that thrilled with last weeks episode. I usually like Jeri Ryan, but it seemed like her character is just so forced in the situation.

Decent episode.
A little more info about Nats past.
Pair this with The Human Target and you a nice one-two punch to watch on Wednesday night.

I really enjoyed this episode... I like this show better when they do these rather small, uncomplicated cons, as opposed to something with a ton of costumes, accents, and props, etc. Jeri Ryan is sexy as hell, and I prefer her over the British chick... I'm glad it's not a running thing (at least for this week) where they aren't constantly talking to her on some videophone in order to keep her tied into the show.

I liked this episode mainly because it showed the team could pull a simple con without all the extravagant props and setup...Hell, they managed to pull it off in 90 minutes.

Noticed how everyone gave Nate a really disappointed look after he was basically forced to relapse and drink for the Con. Parker just cracks me up. Loved when she was serving the beer and smacked everyone in the ass while stealing their wallets.

Hardison doing the fake weather report with the green towel as his green screen was hilarious.

That was a very cool twist at the end with all the old guys playing cards being Boston Cops.

The TNT boards hate Jeri Ryan/Tara, but damn she looked smoking hot in that tight leather skirt. ^^ I agree I actually kind of prefer her over Gina Bellman.
