Here’s a show I’ve rediscovered recently: “Leverage,” the 2008-2012 TNT-TV crime drama about a group of thieves—led by formerly successful insurance investigator Nathan Ford (Timothy Hutton)—who “target the corrupt and powerful to avenge ordinary people who have no other recourse.” I had forgotten how much out-and-out fun this series is, with its elaborate con jobs and never-ending selections of Plan Bs.
Hutton (the son of Jim Hutton, star of “Ellery Queen”) does an excellent job as a “white knight” and struggling alcoholic propelled into a life of crime following the unnecessary death of his young son. But the other members of his quirky team are no less captivating, especially beautiful young burglar/pickpocket/safecracker Parker (Beth Riesgraf) and often hilarious computer hacker Alec Hardison (Aldis Hodge).
This show was revived in 2021 as “Leverage: Redemption,” with Noah Wyle (of “ER” fame) joining the group as Harry Wilson, an ex-lawyer who hopes to get back at the sorts of corrupt businesspeople he previously defended in court. (Sadly, Hutton—who faced a rape allegation in 2020 that led to a criminal complaint of extortion—is no longer part of the cast.) "Leverage: Redemption," now in its second season, can be seen on Amazon’s ad-supported streaming service Freevee. I’ll definitely watch that, after I finish my rewatch of the original’s five seasons.
The “Leverage” theme was composed by Joseph LoDuca.
