Let’s go steal a podcast, thieves and grifters! Welcome back to a new round of The Show Off, where we’re talking about episodes of our all-time favorite shows, starting with Amanda’s pick — Leverage, created by John Rogers and Dean Devlin for TNT in 2008.
We chat all about this excellent heist and con procedural and break down a fan favorite episode: The Bank Shot job. We’re talking about some great (and very hot) set design, the unmatched found family dynamic with our Leverage crew, Technical Jargon: Competence Porn and Other Writer’s Room Terms, relationship and character dynamics, interesting costume design on a budget, a whole lotta show don’t tell moments, defeating the villain with their own hubris, a show tagline worth remembering, just a few ridiculous ransom demands, and everyone’s favorite Cowboy Batman. We hope you enjoy the pod!
