Leverage.

Not spoilery: OMG OMG OMG.

Spoilery
Will Wheaton! And of course they've crammed in Star Trek references, and I almost peed my pants at the Kobyashi Maru thing. And OMG, of course Hardison knows everything there is to know about ST, but PARKER.

THIS SHOW MAKES ME SO HAPPY.

And for the first time in this season I really, really, really shipped the hell out of Nate/Sophie. I love them both, but usually my love for the OT3 of Awesomeness that are Parker/Hardison/Elliot is kind of bigger. BUT! The almost-kiss in the cemetery? OMG.

I also want that second crew back for more. Because YES.

And I loved loved loved the cameras cutting between the two groups' prep meetings.

In conclusion: This show is LOVE and it should never, ever end, and, just, <3333

And I agree about Nate/Sophie - I usually don't care about that ship, but at the end of this episode? Oh, yes!

This show makes me SO HAPPY. The second crew. And, as always, all Eliot's scenes (he's speaking Hebrew!). And Parker's knowledge of ST!

In conclusion: This show is LOVE and it should never, ever end, and, just, <3333
YES! (btw, I've heard that they got 3rd season \o/)

3rd season HELL TO THE YEAH.

And you know what makes me most happy lately? Hardison. With all the shows portraying geeks as anti-social and losers, he's so well-adjusted (considering) and fun and smart and AWESOME.

And sure, the ex-Mossad taking off her shirt and all was blatant fan service, but DAMNIT, so was Eliot! <3

And, just <3 Sophie, who is complicated and complex and has issues but isn't weak and doesn't need a man to fix them. Just THIS SHOW.

YES. Hardison! <3

Ha, I actually think ELIOT taking off HIS shirt was more of a fan service. XD And yes, she took off her shirt, but they were actually doing the same things - her jacket, his jacket, her shirt, his shirt (and it made sense, because it's easier to fight without them). And both of them ended up with the top still on. So, YAY.

Basically, all of them are LOVE. This show is LOVE. Everyone should watch it, trufax.

At this point MY MOTHER is like: Are there new episodes? Why aren't there new episodes? I want new episodes!

(She is, I think, almost at the point where she'd be ready to watch it with subtitles, if the Nscreen doesn't hurry up and put on the second season where she can watch it. And she HATES subtitles with a fiery passion and refuses to watch anything with them.)

It's probably the only show right now (well, okay, this and CSI:NY) that I love unconditionally and if someone even mentions it, I turn into a happy pile of goo because LEVERAGE <33

Because it's just THAT AWESOME!

Just... THIS TEAM. Srsly. I love the team in NCIS and in CM, but in Leverage they really are this... disfunctional, crazy, awesome family.
People becoming a team and a family are one of my favourite things (tropes?) in fiction.

And yes, no other show turns me into "happy pile of goo"XD <3

The 'family is what you make' trope is such a bulletproof literary kink of mine... I mean, that's why I watch procedurals, for that (and, yeah, for the murders, because I'm weird :D).

But procedurals have sometimes too much, ya know, proceedings ;D. And not enough of the team being absolutely bloody awesome. And leverage does that.

I think I'll just go and rewatch this ep. For the third time today :D

I don't know if there is any other show I love absolutely EVERY single person. And I don't think there is any other show which has every single episode so great. And this one? Probably the best episode ever.

Also, Sophie <3 OT3 <3 (and Nate is getting creepier and creepier). And Parker who thinks Sopie is really dead XDDD
