switch842: (Leverage: Sophie Scream)
[personal profile] switch842

I hate To Be Continued. Don't Continue. Just keep going!! LOL Though, luckily, this wasn't as bad a cliffhanger as I've seen before. I still wanna know what happens now!!!

So, yeah, how awesome was this episode? It was amazing. It was everything the show has been leading up to til this point and they really pulled it out. Everything was spot on. Really just amazing.

Though there is one thing that's slightly confusing me - didn't we meet Maggie in The Miracle Job? Wasn't that woman with the priest in the beginning Nate's ex-wife? Or does Nate have two ex-wives? Hopefully John will answer that question in his blog as I noticed a couple other people asking about it over there, too.

It was great having Badger Agent Sterling back. And Agent Bly Alex Carter (what was his character name?). It's just a Burn Notice reunion on Leverage this week! LOL Those two should just go around being The Bad Guy Odd Couple to every show. They're great. :-D

Loved that end shot of them all walking away from each other. Hearkens back to the pilot. Which is always nice to see.

Eliot getting his ass kicked was amusing. But I'm kind of glad that happened. Shows he's not some Superman that can do anything.

I liked how Nate & Sophie used Alec and Parker to trick Stirling and get away. It was true what Nate said - Sterling knows how they think. So, they needed to think like someone else.

The impromptu theft by Parker was awesome. And poor Hardison all confused and flustered. ((HUGS)) And Parker is just completely clueless about all that.

Next Tuesday cannot come soon enough!!

Loved the Burn Notice reunion, especially since it was only 5 days later. But you calling them The Bad Guy Odd Couple has lead me to involuntarily slash them. It was bound to happen, I'm sure. Rule 34.

I had been thinking lately that they always win. Seeing each one of them get caught/beaten/have their asses handed to them on silver platters, etc was nice to finally see. I suppose technically they still "won" since they all got away in the end, but they are in a whole lot of trouble.

I am saddened that there is only one episode left. When does the next season start? Two weeks from now, right? *whimper*

I've heard that they start filming in April with episodes to possibly start airing in June. That came from an interview Christian did recently, and I suppose is subject to change, but it doesn't seem like we're going to have to wait too long for season 2.

Rule 34.

It rules all, really. ;-)

I totally loved the episode as well... including the guest appearances by Badger and Bly (*grins*). I LOVED Haridson's line, "I'll write your mama a letter if I want to." Loved it. I had it on Tivo, so I watched that bit twice. I also loved the parting 'split' shot.

Next week can't come soon enough.

Oh, yeah. Hardison was awesome as the FAA guy. Looks like he's been getting some private lessons from Eliot, too, on kicking ass. ;-)

*didn't we meet Maggie in The Miracle Job?*

I just rewatched the begining of The Miracle Job. They have Maggie calling Nate, but when the gal is walking with the priest, he never calls her Maggie. So....

I have to say last night's episode was really good. I can't wait to se how they get out of this mess.

Ahhh. That's what happened. Perhaps everyone just assumed that was Maggie. Maybe I'll pop over to the imdb and see if they have anything to say about.

Some people assumed the woman with Father Paul at the beginning of the episode was Maggie, probably because Nate received a call from Maggie later and, well, who would know so quickly except for the person who was there when Father Paul was attacked? That's probably where the logic jump came from for most people, but I personally never thought the woman was Maggie. She seemed too young to me so I never made that leap.

Kari Matchett is a fabulous choice for Maggie though. It was great to see her interacting with Tim Hutton again.

Burn Notice reunion RITE??? Now, if only we can get Michael Westen to pop onto Leverage... The crossover that will never happen, BUT DEAR GOD WE CAN DREAM

Eliot getting his ass kicked was TRAGIC. TRAGIC. It was PAINFUL to watch. ;_; But I agree that it was great to see the team getting bested, because they can't win ALL the time. Even though they will, eventually, for this one, because, you know, the show has a season two. :D

SOMEONE NEEDS TO WRITE THIS!!! Not even joking, this would be an epic crossover of awesomeness.

It was good to see the team knocked down a peg, even if we do know they'll get back up. But, who knows? Maybe they won't. Maybe this season will end with them all broken and beaten and trying to get something back. And there's the set-up for season 2... :-D

John Rogers on the girl in "Miracle Job":

The Church Girl in The Miracle Job was DB Sweeney's assistant, not a previous version of Maggie. There's no way we'd introduce Maggie and then not have a scene between she and Nate. Also, she's inappropriately young. C'mon, Nate Ford doesn't roll that way.

Hahahaha.

As for BN x-over, ahda;fdjasklfsd I KNOW, somebody totally needs to write it. [livejournal.com profile] sparky77 is working on one, last I heard. I anxiously awaits.

OK. That works.

BN/Leverage needs to just happen. Right now. They're perfect for each other!!
