This is a bummer to hear. I really love the ‘Leverage’ concept. Con artists and criminal type going after “The rich and powerful” is fun stuff, even if this revival wasn’t as good as the original, it still was a lot of fun.
Sad face
I lost all interest after the controversies about Christian Kane and the real reasons they couldn’t film the revival in Portland were revealed

Yeah, it was surprising to me that nobody else picked up the story, everybody covered it when it was about Timothy Hutton

They’ve dumbed down shows like this waaaayyy too much. I get that a lot of tv is made now for second screen watching, which is fine, but I don’t have to watch it. Leverage, and Leverage Redemption both fell victim to this. I stopped watching Leverage after the first season because they immediately dumbed it down after that and IMO ruined it.

They started doing the thing that all shows are doing now. One, is dumbing down the plotlines in general, but the far more annoying thing is the trend of showing a flashback of a thing that literally happened five minutes ago in the show and here it is again to make it super obvious that this was the super sneaky thing that they did to advance the plan/heist/plot.
I fucking hate that trend. I’m not a second screen watcher. When I watch something, I watch it and pay attention because I want to be engaged in it. I know I’m in the minority and no amount of removed will change that, but it has caused me to abandon a lot of shows. Most recently Matlock and High Potential.
