Yeah, I went there

In comparing the first two episodes (all I've seen) of Leverage to the first two episodes of Burn Notice, I'm going to go ahead and say that:

--Burn Notice is more believable, most especially in getting its characters to continue to "play along" against their will.

--Burn Notice has more interesting episodic plots.

--Michael, Fee, and Sam do a much better job of changing accents/personas to do jobs.

--Michael Weston and Fiona are much more fuckin' bad-ass than any of the characters on Leverage.

--Burn Notice is funnier, IMO - the cheese gets laid on a little too thick for me in Leverage.

--Annnnd, Burn Notice came first, so I feel like Leverage is a little derivative, considering how similar they are.



I'll keep watching Leverage, so don't freak out.
And I usually don't like making posts like these, it's just that I see posts/fic/etc. about leverage all over my flist on the interwebs, but not a lot of love for Burn Notice. WATCH THAT SHIT. Guns, bombs, sexiness, and Fiona gets turned on by beating Michael up. It is totally hot.
