Leverage 1x04

1x04, The Snow Job: I saw this episode for the first time tonight and... Is it just me or was this ep quite lame? It felt like not just the script was boring but even the actors were bored, not up to their usual bounciness. The "kids" - Eliot, Hardison and Parker - saved the day somewhat, their scenes were the best but other than that... There was just something missing. But maybe it's just the fact that I have absolutely no sympathy at all for drunks. So, kinda disappointed. Maybe it'll seem better after I have watched it with the audio commentary?

I mostly responded to this episode with rage at Nate. This was the point at which my ambivalence for him solidified into dislike.

I like that the writers agree on the fact that yes, Nate is good at what he does but he's in no way a nice, likable guy. So basically, what we think of him is exactly what they wanted the viewers to think. But I would kinda actually LIKE the heroes. On the other hand, it makes me like the "kids" even more.
