Hateful 8 Meets Leverage

[henryjamesholden · 10/10 · 17 October 2021]

Great episode! Great energy! Created another episode with loving bickering between Parker and Eliot as well as a reprisal of the US Marshall. My hats off to the cast for suffering through a week of night shoots in a rain simulator but it really added to the urgency of the plot. I was expecting more of a twist at the end, but the chemistry of our heroes (and the villains of the week) made up for it. Bonus, really enjoyed the easter eggs within the B plot. It made the hospital shenanigans a fun addition.

I have been looking forward to #TheHurricaneJob when I read that it was an #EliotSpencer (#ChristianKane) and #Parker (#BethRiesgraf) episode. They are 2 of my 3 favorite characters in #LeverageRedemption (with #AlecHardison (#AldisHodge) being the third). Like some other episodes in the back-8, it started darkly, with a vicious attack by two cops on an unarmed man. The switch being a white cop, a Black cop, and an Hispanic man. This is a #Leverage staple "pairing" episode, with #SophieDevereaux (#GinaBellman) and #HarryWilson (#NoahWyle) together at Leverage HQ while Eliot and Parker have shipwrecked on an island and find the two cops from the opening - along with a lot of other cops - have taken over the hotel. Loved the visual effects of the hurricane. At first I thought they were brave enough to film during one of the five hurricanes the #LeverageRedemption cast and crew endured during the filming of the first season. Turns out it was a hurricane machine. Still extremely effective. And fantastic action sequences of Parker climbing 3 roofs during a hurricane and taking out a couple of bad guys on her own. The presence of U. S. Marshall #MariaShipp, called in by Eliot earlier to get them off the island, was taken as a threat by Parker. Although the Eliot/Parker banter is fun to watch, the writers also write heart-felt scenes where one of the trio (Parker in this case, Eliot in another episode) fears the other will move on without them. Touching Eliot/Parker scene at the end. Oh, and don't miss Harry channeling Wyle's ER doctor role with a flair, a wink, and a smile.

Yeah for Elliot!

Maria is perfect for Elliot, a great addition, keep her coming back! She should join the team! Leverage is who you want to find around in a hurricane for sure!

Enjoyable episode, but it also got really repetitive after awhile.

Still, Parker and Eliot have unique chemistry and I'd like to see the show explore more scenes with them together.
