My gosh, I was looking forward to this, now it just looks like some "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" 90s kids clone but without the heart or humor.

Is Shooter good?

Why do the travelers in Travelers have such bad intel on their hosts? "hmm no one will notice if a retarded girl is suddenly normal" I'm on ep 2

Any recommendations for a show that feels like Leverage, meaning episode sized chunks that are semi-serious yet feel-good?

The Librarians has the same show runner and a few leftover cast members

Hustle was basically the original Leverage and fits that description very well

Burn Notice, Royal Pains, The Closer, Franklin & Bash.

Good call on Burn Notice.

Life is pretty decent, but occasionally dark. It's got some of the most implausible/blatantly unrealistic crime scenes in any procedural. But it has Damien Lewis, Sarah Shahi, and in the third and final season, Donal Logue.

Edit: I didn't keep up with it, but White Collar should fit the bill.

Thanks all!

I was looking at amazon and found a show called Mercy Street, Mary Elisabeth Winstead plays a Northern nurse in a hotel-turned-hospital in Union-occupied Virginia. Checking it out now.

Yeah Series of Unfortunate Events felt Dahl-ish, so what I saw so far was fine to me.
