Squeeeeee!

As an Italian, I had a small problem with last night's Leverage.  Any mafioso worth his linguine with clam sauce would know the guy with the black suit and center-white collar is ALWAYS called "Father", never "Reverend".  Evah!  But I forgive them.  I forgive them everything, because of the following exchange between Timothy Hutton and Christian Kane:

Hutton: Let me get this straight, you killed a guy with an appetizer?   Did you just kill a guy with an appetizer?

Kane: It was the lemon juice.  I put a little on top of each one.   Maybe.

(Thanks, [livejournal.com profile] seanan_mcguire !  The line was much better the way they really did it.  :D)

Can I just say how much I love this show? It's as great as those bridesmaids' dresses were awful!

Absolutely {{{{peaches}}}}! It's definitely my current favorite, right up there with Eureka and Burn Notice. (I'm fond of Sanctuary but it's not luurrrrve. :D) And the "appetizer gag" was possibly the best use of a mushroom on the wall--er, spear on the wall I've seen in series television. It was set up so seamlessly. The character development it provided when it was first mentioned was so perfect, you couldn't imagine there was more to it.
Hugs and big big grins,

I thought the exchange was "Did you just kill a guy with an appetizer?" "Maybe," and that the lemon juice comment was after Hardeson said they were really tasty.

(I am such a geek.)

Yes! You've got it! Thanks. I'll fix it now. Cheers and smiles, Jean Marie

Burn Notice. I just discovered this series on Netflix and it only goes through Season One. Can't wait until they issue another batch for viewing.

And btw -- it appears there is some technical glitch in your post as some bits repeat. Gremlins. I'm just sayin'....

It is one of my guilty pleasures too. I try to catch any series that Hutton stars in, because he's usually very good at selecting interesting roles.

I still miss the Nero Wolfe series A&E had a few years ago.

My bad. It reposts each time you edit it, which I did in response to new and better info. :-)
Really can't wait for the new season of Burn Notice to start next week. The first half of the season ended on a real cliffhanger.
I'm tempted to check in on Battlestar Gallactica too. I'm one of those awful people who routinely checks the end of a book, and I wouldn't mind knowing who the last Cylon is.
Hugs and evil grins,

That was a good show. It was the first time I decided I liked his face too. His is a face that has definitely gotten more interesting with age. Neat trick.
Hugs and smiles,
