leverage is the best piece of televison:
follows a case of the week format which is so underrated now
the seasonal Big Bads don’t take up multiple episodes just for them
maybe there’s a few minutes every couple episodes, and maybe the cases they work relate to getting closer to the big bad, but we don’t spend half the season focused on this one guy
consequently, except for the few two-parters and season finales, episodes can be picked up and watched in any season without needing a lot of explanation
i’ve dropped so many shows because they get to a point where a whole season is devoted to one case and even the ‘regular’ episodes are half them talking about it
stuck to its premise and didn’t lose quality over time!
i legitimately can’t think of an episode that i dislike but even more than that i can’t think of an episode that i’m even just apathetic towards
robin hood but with fun heist music!
the people they take down are generally all disgustingly wealthy, mostly white, mostly men and all taking advantage of marginalized and disadvantaged folk
literally eliot’s old gf called them a family in the third fucking episode
fun and interesting recurring characters!
tara, chaos, quinn, archie, maggie, sterling, hurley, peggy, bonanno they’re all unique and amazing
romantic relationships develop naturally and you really care about them
arguing about what a particular con is called “no that’s the vegas wake up call” “you need a hooker for that” “no that’s the—”
the old nate painting following them to each new headquarters
“it’s a very distinctive —”
do you have a competency kink? because you will
and literally a million other things god it’s so good
