BM/WW IR sightings on TV

Bunny Colvin said:
I'll leave much of the connecting subplots out so this doesn't run too long. Mary is the leader of a gang of female thieves, The 40 Elephants, working under the larger, more dangerous male 40 Elephants gang that looms over the latter phase of part 1. She immediately becomes infatuated with Hezekiah, a Jamaican born fighter who comes to the city to make a name for himself along with his brother. Hez is talented, ambitious, and charismatic and Mary feels she can use his skills to her advantage for her and the gang to heist the rich lords as long as he can keep winning fights and become a big enough draw to get into one of their houses.

Hezekiah is right to be cautious about trust her, but their mutual attraction and thirst for success brings them closer. The heist is successful, but it turns out the stolen loot is only silver plated which puts Mary in harms way for going behind her superiors back with nothing to show for it. Mary's gang becomes disillusioned with her leadership. Hez comforts her and she finally lets her guard down and falls for him. For his role in the robbery, Hez becomes a target of the 40 Elephants and secretly Mary offers Hezekiah's trainer and brother as victim to protect him. Having nothing left in the city but Hezekiah, she convinces him to flee to America with her to start a new life, but Hez finds out her role in his brothers death and shuns her. That's where part 1 ends.

Thanks for the detailed breakdown!
 
I checked out Running Point on Netflix over the weekend. I enjoyed it more than I expected. As for wwbm stuff....

TLDR: Kate Hudson and Jay Ellis kiss in the finale, but things are way up in the air for next season.

Long Version:
Kate Hudson (Isla) unexpectedly becomes president of LA's pro basketball team. She's in a long engagement with a white doctor but has a really good rapport with her team's head coach, played by Jay Ellis (also named Jay).

Isla and Jay have clear chemistry, but they never cross the line. Isla really loves her finance, and he's good to her. But eventually her job gets in the way and they break up.

About a month later, Isla makes a grand gesture to get her man back. He says he needs time to think about it. That night, Isla and Jay have a talk after a big playoff game, and they kiss. She was into it, but he cut it short and left.

Before that, Isla had agreed to let Jay out of his contract so he could take the Boston coaching job to follow his ex-wife and kids.

So at the end of the season, Isla doesn't know if she might get back with her ex, and she assumes that Jay is headed across the country.

One interesting point is that I saw several "Isla and Jay: Love Story" type videos when I was searching for the pictures in my last post. So at least some fans are shipping these two.

Also, Jay's ex-wife is played by Rebecca Rittenhouse, who was in The Mindy Project and is in her own wwbm marriage irl.

Found a surprise on Paramount+ with YA interracial called "Freakish". It is a horror series set at a high school during the weekend and it ran for two seasons. Could be interesting and I like teen horror so I will probably see where this goes especially if I cannot find anything on TUBI which can be hit or miss some weekends. I will post the trailer tomorrow if there is one.

EDIT: Man eight minutes in and this thang is looking really REALLY good!! Hope it keeps ascending astronomically because this could be good enough to drink too ;)
 
^^^ This is a HULU original but I am watching it on the Paramount+ streaming app via Prime Video. Chad L Coleman from "The Wire" and "The Walking Dead" stars as the adult in charge as a High School Football Coach in charge of Saturday detention. Mary Mouser from "Cobra Kai" is featured prominently too

I'm watching the first episode of "Running Point" right now & have to chuckle at the fact Jay Ellis's character is supposed to be a younger black version of Phil Jackson.

Looking forward to this. Leverage is such a great show to watch in the background. Formulaic, archetypal and corny. You’re just supposed to enjoy it, no irony or layered meaning.

This season officially makes them the longest running current bm/ww IR Relationship on TV.

My favorite scene from my favorite episode of these two. The Date Night Job 2x04.

Did Aldis Hodge become part of the regular cast after the 1st season or is he still just a recurring character?
 
Between 2008 and 2012, he appeared as a regular cast member in all 77 episodes across five seasons. Due to work commitments, he became a ''special guest star", appearing in a total of eight episodes in Seasons 1 and 2 of Leverage: Redemption.

Ok, he's still a recurring character in season 2. Do we know if he's gonna finally re-join the regular cast on this upcoming season 3?

I've always like Amanda Seyfried, so I'm obviously in.

No official statements have been made about his return to the main cast. Some reports suggest that his participation in the new season may be limited.
I guess we’ll just have to wait and find out.

They are coy on the intimate relations aspect. I was already looking forward to checking this out. Looked good in the previews and trailers.
