(2009-08-11) Leverage #204 the Fairy Godparents Job Postgame

John Rogers: LEVERAGE episode #204 "The Fairy Godparents Job" Post-game. we wound up with one of the most sedate first acts we've ever had. Good Lord, how we agonized over spending so much time in the briefing scene in this ep. Ironically, this episode arrived just as we were collating feedback off the 'net and found, stunningly, you people love the briefing scenes.

For the audience, watching competent people banter and plan was a big part of the appeal. "Competence porn" as we started calling it... This is one of the neat things about television. It's on long enough that it evolves into its own beast.
