Re: White Collar -- "Hard Sell" -- 01/19/10 -- New Night
 
I was wondering if there would be some connection between Kate and Elizabeth, just given their passing familial resemblance to one another.

Looks like it did quite well...

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – January 21, 2010 – The winter premiere of USA’s WHITE COLLAR on Tuesday at 10pm delivered series high ratings among P18-49 and 2nd best among P25-54, ranking as the #1 program of the day on cable and beating many shows on broadcast. The show, which previously aired on Fridays in 4Q09, averaged 2.12 million P18-49, up +30% from the 4Q09 season average, and 2.21 million P25-54, up +18%. This is USA’s best performance for P25-54 in the Tuesday time slot in more than five years. The move to the night also brought in series highs among P18-34 with a jump of +42%.

WHITE COLLAR out-delivered ABC in its entire primetime lineup among P18-49, P25-54 and total viewers. It also beat all broadcast competitors among M18-49, making it #1 in the demo at 10pm in all of television. WHITE COLLAR beat CBS among P18-34 in the 10 pm timeslot.

Synopsis:

Spoiler:
Peter and Neal uncover a link between Fowler and an estate judge who's committing mortgage fraud. Armed with this information, the guys devise a plan to take them both down.


Ratings were really good last week on the new night. 4.7M viewers, which is pretty damn close to what Burn Notice got last week.

Looking forward to Fowler tonight!

I'm about ready to drop this show. The problem is the weekly cases have just not held my interest. I know white collar crime isn't the most glamorous subject, but episodes like this one are a complete snoozer. And as much as they try, the girlfriend storyline just reeks of the Monk/Trudy plot device.

Re: White Collar -- "Free Fall" (Fall Finale) -- 12/04/09
 
Sorry for the late bump, but I am a few eps behind.

GREAT finale. I thought Peter was behind Kate from the beginning for some reason. Just seemed like he always knew more than he let on.

Even Eastin pointed out on his Twitter that Peter found Neal with relative ease, like everything was planned from the start.

We'll see how it plays out, but I love the twist and really dig the show.

Synopsis:

Spoiler:
Neal uncovers a scheme to harvest human organs and brings the case to Peter. The two concoct a setup in hopes that the black-market ringleader will take the bait and reveal himself.


Forgot to post this yesterday, but figured that everyone was watching Lost and didn't care to watch this right away.

I thought the fall finale was great...an excellent cliff hanger. Be sure to get caught up on the episodes they've shown in the 2nd half, they're pretty great. You can tell the writers have gotten very comfertable with the characters. Check out all the episodes here.

Re: White Collar -- "Home Invasion" -- 2/09/10
 
I thought this was a great episode! Loved that Neal had Peter as a house guest, and that clearly did not work out!. Sad that there was no new episode on this past week, but am looking forward to a new one this week

Next week is the season finale. So, how many of you have liked this show and will return for season 2?

/\ I like it, and I'll keep tuning in.

My parents recommended this show to me. I have really enjoyed it (yes, even with Tiffani Theissen in it!). It will be interesting to see what the season finale cliffhanger will be!

Fist of Doom 03-02-10 10:02 AM

Re: White Collar -- "Front Man" -- 03/02/10
 
Love this show, love Tiffani Theissen :drool:. I didn't know it had been picked up for a second season. Good news and I'll be tuning in. I still wish it were on Fridays, though (I don't have DVR).

I love this show, really hope it comes back for Season 2.

Re: White Collar -- "Front Man" -- 03/02/10
 
I almost gave up on it early because Neal's obsession with Kate was making the stories tiresome. But it's become much better as things progressed and I really like it now. Unfortunately, the local listings for USA network are all messed up and I've ended up recording the wrong show numerous times so I've had to catch a few eps of this and "Burn Notice" online.

Achtung 03-07-10 01:08 AM

Re: White Collar -- "Front Man" -- 03/02/10
 
Have to say, I've only seen the show a few times, but have really enjoyed it. From the original ads, it sort of seemed like standard "buddy cop" fare, with the agent as the straight man having to work with the new guy who "breaks all the rules". But it's proven to be surprisingly more intelligent than that.

I'm really digging the actress playing Alex as well. :up:

Definitely hooked ..... great fun!

Eh, I'm on the fence. I like the characters well enough, but I don't like the stories. Both the Kate story and the weeklies aren't very compelling. Kate's seems to be mystery for mystery's sake. Just like on Monk the main objective is to draw the story out and make it intriguing. The weekly stories just seem lazily written and pedestrian.

I am enjoying this and will definitely be returning when new episodes do.

I think it has really picked up steam since the break. I didn't care for some of the earlier episodes, and they included some awful green screen rooftop shots when Neil first got the apartment.

I loved Tim DeKay on Carnivale, and I think he's great on this show. Willie Garson was a great surprise as well. I love his scenes impersonating law enforcment. Of course Tiffani Thiessen is sexy as all hell, so that helps.

I'm in for season 2.

OscarBluth 03-08-10 12:55 PM

Re: White Collar -- "Front Man" -- 03/02/10
 
Tiffani Thiessen's character's sole purpose is to talk for a few seconds and move the story along. The character's like a bad movie voiceover filling you in on the details they had to invent to connect two plot points. It's annoying. She should have been either Kate or Nate's sister, or not been on the show.

And enough with the "do this right or you go back to jail" gimmick, because you're not making Prison Break 2.0.

rkndkn 03-11-10 01:06 PM

Re: White Collar -- "Front Man" -- 03/02/10
 
I like the interaction between Elizabeth and Peter -- it lets you see a different side of Peter.

I'm surprised the show already returns in summer.

I agree 100%. I loved the first 7 episodes, but it's been plodding along after the break. I really doubt I'll come back for S2.

Re: White Collar -- "Front Man" -- 03/02/10
 
I guess this thread will combine the season finale "Out of the Box". I'm glad they got rid of the Kate albatross for season 2, and I'm guessing it'll shift into revenge/avenge mode for Neil next season.
