June Thomas Slate Leverage, the TNT drama about a gang of scam artists who con the rich to win justice for the poor, had the best possible finale. Oct 4, 2018 Full Review Graeme Virtue Guardian It's pure escapism, replacing the scales of justice with elaborate long cons that deceive and then expose a new baddie per episode. Oct 3, 2018 Full Review Phil Dyess-Nugent AV Club I read somewhere that Leverage is too airy a show and that it would do well to rein in its wilder flights of fancy, but I think a show as silly in its bones as this can use all the wild cards it can find in its sleeves. Rated: B+ Jul 15, 2012 Full Review Grant Hermanns Screen Rant TNT's Leverage remains a true delight of a twist on the heist genre nearly a decade later, albeit with just a few issues that keep it from perfection. Rated: 9/10 Apr 17, 2025 Full Review Matt Webb Mitovich TV Line The season finale played perfectly as a series-ender, delivering a memorable combo of sleight-of-hand and misdirection. Oct 4, 2018 Full Review Kristi Turnquist Oregonian At least what turned out to be the series finale was a fitting ending. Oct 4, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Father Zachary M Best show and just all around entertaining. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/03/25 Full Review Audience Member Please see my comments for Season 1. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the better seasons but by now, everyone knew the ending before the episode would begin. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Really good show enjoyed it a lot. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I absolutely loved the 5th season of Leverage! These characters have really kind of grown up and become what season 1 hinted at. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I came over here to see what the critics thought of this, after I watched, and loved, the first two episodes. It lasted 5 seasons.....I'll stick with it for the first season, at the very least. I was in mourning after Breaking Bad ended. They are not much alike in some ways, and very much alike in others, ie, solid, crafty writing, humor and suspense, good actors all around. Someone round up another critic so there can be the at-least-five. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
