Leverage 1.01 - 1.03

I bought the first season of Leverage while it was $13 on Amazon, because it sounded silly and fun and it wasn't streaming on Netflix.

It is indeed a very silly show. I'm not sure how they're going to maintain my interest, because it isn't as though the plots make any sense, nor are they terribly clever. (Well. Mostly I'm just really unexcited about the last one I watched, the mob wedding one.)

But you guys, HARDISON. <3 <3 <3 He gets all the best lines. I came in expecting to love Parker, too, and while she is very cute, I don't think I'm quite to the love stage yet.

And Christian Kane, dude, he bulked up. Tbh, I don't think he's nearly as cute as he was back on Angel? And he's been taking voice lessons from Dean Winchester; he's all low and gravelly now. However, the martial arts expert who has heart-to-hearts and doesn't like guns is a type I can live with.

I like Sophie fine when she's not drooling over, um, our main guy for no apparent reason. I was okay with his blatant fangirling in the pilot, but since then it seems to be all one-sided, and I am not amused.

I can't even remember our main guy's name right now, which should tell you all you need to know about my feelings. I just, I don't care, you guys. I gather I'm supposed to be impressed because the actor was a one-time Oscar winner, but I don't.

No one's real deep yet. I can definitely see myself for falling for most of these guys if they pick up some complexity (other than the complexity inherent in a bunch of really nice thieves). In the meantime, I'll keep watching Hardison.

So, I'm having fun, which is really all I expected. So.
