Leverage: Con Artists of Earth (a special five-part miniseries)
Summary: A zealous federal agent played by <insert fantasy casting> heads up a joint FBI/IRS/SEC task force charged with one goal: shut down Leverage and put its principals behind bars for life. As the web closes in on Nate, Sophie, Hardison, Parker, and whatshisname (sorry! you know, the one with the longish hair played by Christian Kane?), they come up with one last, desperate plan: stage a fake alien threat to Earth that will wind up taking down the entire government and throwing the world into chaos and anarchy. But are they really prepared to sacrifice everything -- even their own lives -- to pull off the greatest con in history?
Tune in next summer for a week of Leverage that you'll never forget!
Meanwhile, elsewhere on the internet, Torchwood fans have apparently hatched a devious scheme to overcaffeinate Russell T. Davies. Or something? Because after all, "I think we can definitly show them that a show is meant for it's fans, it's not for writers to inflict what they want on their faithful audience." [link with spoilers for recent TW]
Yeah, I just don't know what to say to that. It reminds me of a segment of soap opera fans and critics who claim that certain producers & network executives are conspiring to ruin their show intentionally with bad writing and casting decisions so that -- actually I don't understand the logic there either. I've seen it suggested that they don't want the fans to get too upset when their favorite shows are cancelled, but I'm not sure why that would justify TPTB putting themselves out of a job?

(There's a wonderful interview out there with Davies that I read in the last couple of days, in which he basically says, "You think I'm homophobic? Wow, are you kids misinformed. Also, the Winchesters are totally hawt." It's kind of awesome.)
