TV Squad has its own take on why the show is so popular - "So what's the key to the shows success? I think it's a combination of things. The ensemble cast ... is a joy to watch, and the show feels modern and retro at the same time. Like Burn Notice, Leverage repackages old school TV concepts (the heist, the Robin Hood angle, covert ops-type stuff) with high style and fast-paced storytelling. Simply put ... it's a lot of fun to watch. Oh, and I can't forget to credit Christian Kane's awesome hairdo. I'm sure that has a lot to do with it."
The second season of Leverage will premier later this year on TNT.
