Summary of "The Complete 1st Season - Awesome show!": Okay, this show blew me away! The entire time I was trying to think what shows it reminded me of, and I came up with the perfect combination of shows; The A-Team (which was also mentioned in one of the featurettes), and Hustle, a BBC series about a bunch of con men (and woman). I absolutely loved the characters, the style of the show, and the writing. I was howling during a few episodes because the lines were hilarious, and other shows had me clapping. I really got into this show while watching it, and by the end of episode 13 I was annoyed it didn't go on longer. Luckily the show has already been renewed for a second season (they even have a featurette on it), so next year I can look forward to watching 15 episodes of the show. Yeehaw!
If you like Hustle or The A-Team then you have to pick up Leverage. The show is top-notch, and the DVD presentation is great (they just need a "play all" on season 2). This is one that should be owned, or at least rented. (read entire review)
