White Collar

Very clever and has your rooting for both the good guys (FBI) and the bad guy (Neal in this case). The pairing of the FBI couple is just right and of course Matt as the con reminds me so much of Pierce Brosnan in the movie "After the Sunset" in which he played a perfect con man and there grew to be a grudging respect between the con and the FBI guy (Woody).

I can see that happening here too and if this lives up to the first few episodes, I'll be tuning in each week as this show is refreshing. I'm tired of the gore in many of the top crime shows. I actually taped this and showed the first two episodes to a few friends that hadn't heard of it and now I have them hooked on it and they want to watch it each week. Let's hope the networks finally realize the gore is getting to be too much and this type of show really works and let's hope it lasts a long time.

White Collar is one of the shows I watch on repeat, and it still holds up. It's a procedural in the best sense-most episodes are new cases, with a few overarching mysteries tying a given season together-but it isn't rote or predictable like procedurals can sometimes be. Tim DeKay and Matt Bomer have *fantastic* chemistry, and watching them both work together and try to outsmart one another is a joy. There's some excellent supporting cast members as well (and since it's a procedural a lot of different actors come through for single episodes, some of which are big talents that I know from shows like The Americans). I appreciate that, unlike most crime shows, there's less violence. Still some violence, mind, but it's not a central theme, this isn't a murder mystery kinda show. A lot of the cases are really interesting, at least if you're compelled by forgery and heists.

The show ended where it needed to buy goodness I wish we could get another round!

White Collar is a captivating and stylish crime drama that follows the partnership between the charming con artist Neal Caffrey and the FBI agent Peter Burke. The series kicks off with Neal's escape from a maximum-security prison, only to be captured by Peter Burke, who offers him a deal to assist the FBI in solving white-collar crimes.

As the unlikely duo teams up to crack cases involving art thefts, forgeries, and other sophisticated crimes, viewers are taken on a thrilling ride filled with clever twists, witty banter, and engaging character dynamics. Neal's charisma and expertise in the world of high-end crime perfectly complement Peter's by-the-book approach, leading to a dynamic partnership that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats.

One of the standout features of White Collar is its attention to detail when it comes to the intricate schemes and puzzles that Neal and Peter must unravel. The show's clever writing, combined with the chemistry between the lead actors Matt Bomer and Tim DeKay, creates a compelling narrative that keeps viewers invested in the characters' journeys.

Beyond its thrilling crime-solving plots, White Collar also delves into themes of loyalty, trust, and redemption, adding depth and emotional resonance to the series. The show strikes a perfect balance between lighthearted moments and intense drama, making it a must-watch for fans of crime procedurals and character-driven storytelling.

Overall, White Collar is a sophisticated and entertaining TV show that offers a unique blend of crime, humor, and heart. With its charismatic leads, intricate plots, and stylish presentation, the series stands out as a must-see for anyone looking for a smart and engaging television experience.

Loved this series. Binged on Netflix. Matt Bomer is yummy. Willie was a great partner. Great writing. All the actors were so well cast. So wish they would bring it back in some way. Sure would like to know what Neal is up to these days. Neal and Peter, Neil and Mozzie -- perfection.

I had watched Suits some time ago and loved it. Wanted to find something similar. Whie Collar was it. I thought the writers were the same but found that not to be true. The stories seem to run paralell.

Suits were attorneys and one young, very smart, wanna-be. White Collar is FBI and one young, very smart, thief.

I don't think you will be disappointed if you sit down to this one.

With White Collar popping back up and doing well with streaming these days I thought I'd give it a try again. I'm glad I did. I watched the first few seasons when this was on 10-15 years ago and then just forgot about it. This was on USA network at a time where they had a bunch of good shows (Psych, Suits, Burn Notice, Covert Affairs, Royal Pains, etc) so it got caught in the shuffle back them. Looking g back USA had a lot of good shows, it's too bad they changed their formula. It's about a White Collar felon named Neal Caffrey, he's wanted for years before being caught by FBI agent Peter Burke. After a few years in prison they make Neal an offer. In exchange for freedom he'll help them catch sought after white collar criminals. Neal and Peter work together and have a fun bro-mance thing going on, they start off not trusting of each other but that grows into a real friendship.
