Leverage: Redemption

Leverage: Redemption is the reboot of Leverage and has the entire original cast back with the exception of Timothy Hutton (because of his legal problems), they replaced him with Noah Wyle who steps in and does a fantastic job. All the heists are exactly as the original but the characters have all since grew and evolved since we last saw them. This is just a flat out fun show to watch if you can just turn your brain off because some of it is ridiculous but in a good way. As long as you don't think too deeply about what you're watching then I promise you'll have a good time watching it. If you're a fan of the original Leverage then this show is absolutely for you.

Leverage: Redemption is the reboot from the original. It brings the whole gang back together except Timothy Hutton with Noah Wyle, otherwise the rest of the cast is all back. The series is about some reformed criminals who put their unique skills to good use by helping regular citizens against big companies of both corporate and government that take advantage of those regular citizens. The come up with elaborate scams targeted against these greedy corrupt people and help the victims get justice. I love how at the end of each episode they do the flashbacks at everything we missed to make the plan come together and be successful. It's the same thing as the Oceans movies did. If you're looking for a fun show to waste a little time with then give Leverage: Redemption a chance.

If you watched all original show from the beginning and now the new ones I think it's one of the best shows on tv . In today's world there are scammers everywhere so we need alittle LEVERAGE to fight back . Please keep this show going .

This was everything I hoped for and more. The original characters kept their appeal and stayed true to their roots, and the new additions are wonderful. Same great writing, directing, and acting. All the "jobs" were fantastic with Parker's love of vents, the costumes, and Eliot's fight scenes. I do miss Nate but Noah Wylie's character is so much fun and he never ever tries to replace Nate. I'm so glad the wait is finally over but it was definitely worth it. Thank you Dean Devlin for giving us back our hitter, hacker, grifter, and thief!!!!!

Before Leverage Redemption , while Nate was in prison , both Sophie and the rest of the team told Nate that she had revealed her real name to the others . Why , through the rest of Leverage and during Leverage Redemption does the team continue to call her by her alias ? I have seen every episode of the series both before and after Nathan's death several times , and never recall hearing "Sophie " tell the team what her name was . What's up with that ? It makes me wonder if she ever even told Nate what her name is . For that matter , I wonder if she may have been lying to Nate when he was in prison and she told him that .

There are enough holes in each episode that this one is altogether unnecessary , so why not just come out and use her real name ? Do the writers think that the audience is not capable to handle a change like this ? I like the show . Stargate SG 1 was one of my all time favorites . Both of these plus all other Devlin Dean productions are top shows/movies as far as I am concerned .
