beth riesgraf ;; interview about leverage with WCCO-TV

[jujumagumbo21]

allow me to share the internal dialouge i was having during this vid: "who is this chick talking to beth and why does she look so damn familiar? god, i know i've seen her somewhere....wait...wcco....th­is is my local news....she plays PARKER u idiot, not beth. wait, how did i miss this on tv??? wait, parker is from MN? oh yeah, we got prince, judy garland (dorothy wizard of oz), and parker. screw paul bunyan, that's all we need." haha

[rickschravendeel]

[businessguys]

wow producers of leverage ,crooks and cons saving the world ,what a stupid bastard you are ,are you saying that show is approriate kids to watch ,thier getting away wit muder ,that they can break into things cause the law is weak ,maybe they are cause the real ones aint worth the crap ,and thats what these producers must think about them too,like why show us all this real crap what they do,when the producers make fools out of you on tv,you might solve a crime if were lucky in like 30 years

Wow, number one: capitalization, and proper grammar and punctuation is your friend. Your poor sentence structure made it difficult to understand.

Number two: Television is meant to entertain, not to be guidelines or even to encourage people to do certain things in their life. If the parents aren't teaching their children that it's stupid to try to attempt to do more than half of the things that they see on TV, I don't think that's a TV shows fault. That blame would fall on the parents.

[HeroesLUVA4eva]

Right on! And that's part of the reason it's on so late. Kids who are to immature to know that they shouldn't do that stuff can't watch it b/c they are probably asleep.

I love Leverage!

BTW I love your name: TwentyPoundsOfCrazy... in a five pound bag. lol.

[KyokoTatsunage]

@TwentyPoundsOfCrazy Exactly it's meant to entertain and it's not like their attacking innocent people! Their taking from the rich and giving to the poor! LIKE ROBIN HOOD! WHAT'S MORE CHILD FRIENDLY THEN ROBIN HOOD!? XD

Episodic television takes liberties to tell a story in a short amount of time. Ultimately one has to look at the theme or moral of the story. Leverage is a story of redemption. The criminals we learn are actually good people gone astray with lines they won't cross for morality sake and when given a chance do good and help those in need they do. Their leader, Nathan Ford, worked for a morally corrupt company and is now redeeming himself, not for law's sake, but for his own moral compass.

Sorry Mary, a little bad English at the end of one of those sentences (I know you pay attention to those types of things), tried to edit to stay within the maximum character count. You know how i tend to max out the character count.

Get over yourself. They don't kill anyone and the show is fiction, it's for adults. It's not the Disney channel. It's a gritty, entertaining show. I suggest you stick to Dora the explorer.

[TheGingi7]

@flick770 If you payed attention to the show at all you would know that they don't kill anyone and they help people.If you have not seen it maybe you shouldn't be talking shit about it.

[NikoGranate]

Parker is brilliant

[meditation23]
