I've never heard of
Leverage, but I don't have cable or satellite, and rarely watch my wife's 13" TV. I'll have to see if any episodes are online.
Yes, the original
MI was awesome—especially those early episodes with Barbara Bain and Martin Landau. I was a huge fan of Landau's disguises.
As much as I like other things he's done, I never cared for Leonard Nimoy's role on the show when he joined the cast. Having recently come from playing three seasons as the non-emotional Spock on
Star-Trek, it seems he was anxious to show he could play an emotional character. There's certainly nothing wrong with that, but I always felt that
Mission Impossible was the wrong show to showcase emotion.
