I'm sort of eh on the Leverage news. I feel Noah Wylie was the weakest link in The Librarians, and I felt Leverage was really played out toward the end.

I'm not stoked about Noah Wylie (I also thought he was weak in Falling Skies: he really likes to be The Hero), but I'm happy to see Sophie, Parker, Eliot and Hardison take down corrupt bad guys again. They are the heroes we've needed.

I'm hoping Wylie won't be so OTT in the Leverage reboot but I'm sure I can deal if there is enough of the others. I was interested in seeing Parker the Mastermind and so I'm excited about that

How many times since Leverage ended has some real world made me think "we need Parker etc to do something about this"? Many many many. It's a rich vein to be mined.

Also, I have a lot of faith in John Rogers making something I'm gonna love.

Aldis Hodge will be recurring, cause he's pretty big now, but FUCKING HELL YES.
Yay!!!!!
Also, I'd like to see Aldis Hodge get Sterling K. Brown levels of big. (This is totally an SPN thing for me and I totally own that.)

I am beside myself with joy about the Leverage news!!! It definitely bumps a Leverage rewatch higher in my personal queue.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Aldis has made such strides, and he's so damned talented I don't doubt he'll make Sterling K levels of big. Okay, *now* I'm wanting to see both of them in something together.

Y'all. You know how online retail therapy is huge? We're seeing order volume over what we have seen in December. FedEx is having capacity issues. And our staff has been cut in half because ll that is not enough to make up for the lost revenue from all the closed stores. These are weird times, I tell you what.
