TV show description:
Nathan Ford (Timothy Hutton) was once a loyal fraud investigator for IYS Insurance. His point of view changed when the insurance company refused to pay for an experimental treatment that could have saved his young son. Because of his intricate knowledge of scams, Nathan’s recruited by Victor Dubenich to join a team of talented criminals to “steal back” aeronautical plans that were supposedly stolen by a competitor.
When the job is completed, Dubenich tries to double-cross the team and unsuccessfully tries to blow them up. The group decides to run a con on their former employer and Dubenich ends up ruined and arrested by the FBI. When the team is done, they form Leverage Consulting & Associates and start to help everyday people who’ve been ripped off by corrupt corporations and government agencies.
Among Nathan’s colleagues is Sophie Devereaux (Gina Bellman), a con-woman who uses her acting skills for art thievery. Ironically, though she’s very successful as an actress for the team’s scams, she has little success as a legitimate performer.
Eliot Spencer (Christian Kane) is a highly-skilled martial artist who is also a weapons and retrieval expert. He shows great proficiency with guns, yet despises them.
Alec Hardison (Aldis Hodge) is a computer hacker extraordinaire and a gadget guru. A self-proclaimed geek, he also has a penchant for science fiction. Parker (Beth Riesgraf) doesn’t have a known first name, and is a thief, cat burglar, and explosives expert. She also has an unnatural love of money, and a soft spot for Alec and children. She and Alec share the common bond of both being raised by foster parents.

What do you think? Do you like the Leverage TV series? Are you glad that it’s being revived on IMDb TV?
I love the show I hope is coming back
At least we finally have reruns
I Loved this show ,and I don’t think it should have ever ended. I feel there was so much more to be explored as far as Eliot goes for sure. It was a huge mistake for the network to end this show when they did. I would love it if @Netflix would make more seasons of this show,or even Multiple Movies.
The show should have never ended. It was an outstanding show and I wish they would start news production. Each character was unique and awesome in their own distorted ways.
Should not b cancled..they r a family no mater how different
I am really lucky that my local tv channel has reruns on Sunday all day long of Leverage. The tv exces are stupid and only out for money.
It definitely should have been renewed. These execs don’t know what they are doing. They put a great show on a lousy time slot and don’t change it to give them an excuse to cancel it for something stupid which they have been paid to do. Their reasoning and system is totally screwed up.
It should have been renewed
i want leverage back best show ever!!
Why was the series, Leverage, cancelled? We have watched all of the episodes and think it is so good!!! Very disappointed it is cancelled!!! Hope it comes back!!!
I loved this show and feel it resonates with viewers on many levels. Please bring it back. The show has gotten even more followers since it was cancelled. It was a great show, great storyline, full characters, and superb actors with awesome chemistry. You can’t beat that. I truly miss the show and watch my DVDs repeatedly. What would it take to bring it back?
I liked the TV show Leverage. Is it in syndication anywhere. I was bummed to see it was canceled.
Not that I know of
netflix 🙂
Renewed. One of the best TV shows in years. TNT was really dumb to cancel this show look at some of the crappie shows they have now
Please bring this show back. If the actors can’t come back for it, at least bring back the reruns! I miss it! Its my favorite show!
Leverage should not have been cancelled. Why was it by the way ? Watching Tim Hutton in American Crime. I don’t care for the part he is playing. Don’t like his appearance either. Still it was good to see him in something. Leverage was a 100 times better. I don’t get it
I loved this show, loved all the actors, loved the scripts. What wasn’t good about it at least there was no bad language or nudity in it. I hope it comes back again – real good show – keep all the same actors too………..
cancelled with over 3 million viewers? with two leading roles leaving it would have been cheaper on the payroll as well. I would love to see this brought back, even on another channel for all i care.
I know is finished and I am sad. But Timothy Hutton is staring in a new show this season and I will be sure to watch it.
