Psych and the Mentalist meet Leverage.


Steve Zahn is really over the top here. That much said, this is a really good show, well written, clever and funny. Good thing that this is on ABC, so it might have a fighting chance to survive. If it were on Fox, it would already be cancelled.

No, Leverage was actually good and had amazing characters. This just isn't. A show with no likeable characters? It doesn't matter what station it is on, it won't last.

Leverage had better and more complicated plots though.

I was thinking "Lie To Me" meets "Leverage", but yeah. I loved "Leverage", but although this has a similar quality (in that they're trying to help people who have nowhere else to turn), I am waiting to see how the characters get fleshed out. So far I don't feel that any of them are particularly likeable, but I'm willing to watch the next ep and see how it goes...

I admire your optimism. I miss Leverage, even though season 5 was not optimal. "Damn it Hardison!!!"

Yeah kinda sad how it ended, but if you find something in the future, the way Leverage was, mail me. ;)
