Leverage is back, finally ... and better than ever. Seriously. Yeah, when Sophie (Gina Bellman) went off to have her real, live baby, the show quickly lost its center and its sense of humor; you got the sense (especially in the two-part finale) that they knew that, and basically vamped the second half of the season until Sophie could return, better than ever. (You can't blame them for trying, but adding Seven of Nine -- excuse us, Jeri Ryan -- didn't work. At all.)
Judging by the opening two episodes, just recently revealed on TNT, the Leverage folks have found their feet again, and all is well. Sophie's back, the capers are as absurd and exciting as once they were, and everybody gets to do all sorts of stupid accents, just like the good old days. It's like a nice little glass of champagne every Tuesday night, at least for a few weeks. Enjoy!
