I've just been catching up on JR's blog, and this made me laugh and laugh (addressing Elliot's relative togetherness compared to some of the team):
But I have no problem with a character who's got it pretty together compared to the others. I'm not Whedon, for chrissake.
Frank, I'm now wondering what it says about me (us) that I love Whedon characters so.
It's not like John's not writing Nate as a bastard. He's hardly sunshine, unicorns, and puppies.
Also, he's a Whedon fan.
I noticed last night's White Collar had an insurance company called
Sterling
Bosch. I couldn't help but wonder if that was a Leverage ref.

Oh, I figured as much. That's part of why I laughed.

I was thinking the same thing. It amuses me, intentional reference or not.
Nate is totally sunshine, unicorns, and puppies! Sunshine burns. Puppies bite. Unicorns have pointy horns. Like Nate, they're adorable but you don't want to fuck with them.
How is Nate even remotely adorable?
How is Nate even remotely adorable?
...because he looks so much like Tim Hutton?
For values of "adorable" that don't include "cute"?
I don't know. Maybe I'm just screwed-up enough that these guys seem normal to me!
