What if The Fugitive’s Dr. Richard Kimble and Lt. Gerard had called a truce and teamed up? USA Network’s White Collar, having just concluded a sparkling rookie season, posits a similar scenario, as charming criminal mastermind Neal Caffrey (Matt Bomer) turns informer for his longtime nemesis, FBI Agent Peter Burke (Tim DeKay), in order to avoid a return trip to the pokey. Join the cast and creative team as they look back on season one and ahead to season two, scheduled to launch this summer.

rewatching Leverage:
"You ever been to Kiev? The cakemaker will kick all of y'all's asses."
"These peaches aren't going to poach themselves, Parker!"
"Did you just kill a guy with an appetizer?"
I rewatched that episode recently too. It's one of my first season favorites.
Ever since I was lost in Tropes, I've been waiting for Elliot to really be taken down. Like, really been gotten the best of, or at least taken down in a cheaterly fashion. Because it's true, even when he takes a hard beat-down, in the end he wins. And it's sad, but I'm jonesing terribly for a character-torture Elliot smack-down where the stakes are epic-ly high. And there isn't a single fic that cuts it for me.
"These peaches aren't going to poach themselves, Parker!"
My favorite Leverage line, bar none. I don't know why I love it so, but I do. Maybe it's just the dichotomy of the tough guy and the tender peaches.
Not exactly cable, but our local PBS station is running the original Life on Mars starting on April 1 at 10:40. Not sure if other stations are running it as well.
That reminds me that I have unwatched UK LoM DVDs. Duh.
WOuld this be the Breaking Bad thread? We watched the first two episodes last night. That show reminds me so much of the Sopranos when it first started - really messed up main characters, but you are still sort of hoping for them to succeed.
There were so many little things I liked about the story so far. So Jesse has embraced that he is the bad guy and Walt refuses to accept being the bad guy. So far, Jesse seems way more at ease with himself than Walt.
