        great premise , Bomer is a fine actor but has zero chemistry with any love interest, might be because he would rather date mozzy

        Great Show. Great Characters.

        Awesome, simply awesome
      • Dec 25, 2020
        Incredible series. It rang a bell though. Only Jan ValJan didn't make actual friends with his policeman hunter and he didn't fake his death, and his sidekick was actually his adopted daughter not a very smart and bald guy. Loved it, definitely smacks of Les Miserables. Actually I thought the fact that they modernized and adapted a classic work to TV was genius. And very true to character. If you compare Neal with Jan ValJan you see the same person. And the very closing scene in which you catch a glimpse of Neal in France is the perfect nod to Victor Hugo's incredible talent. And it gives the happy ending for the story that unfortunately got interrupted by the French Revolution in the book. In fact Neal and Jan ValJans origins are starkly alike. The loaf of bread Jan ValJan stole because of France's cruelty to his family was so much more applicable to modern day when captured by Neal's symbolic stealing of identities because of being raised by the underground protection system. France robbed Jan from a normal life as a child as did Neal by his corrupted police father. Both learned eventually to live an honest life but we're not given the chance to be trusted. The series is rich in historical inuendo. To life!

        What a relief to see this intelligent story with real characters instead of the many violent and superficial action shows on Netflix.

        BEST SERIES I'VE EVER SEEN
      • Jul 03, 2020
        Best show ever!! Smart, sexy, creative, funny, intriguing, surprising, exciting, heartwarming, and so entertaining! Excellent premise, writing, casting, and acting. I've got withdrawals. Looking forward to the reboot.

        A charming show, well written and cast just as well, loses a little bit of momentum in the last couple seasons, but what show doesn't have a few bad episodes? The story is handled well and Matt Bomer kills it with his portrayal of Neil Caffrey, must see TV!

        Take Burn Notice, change the agency from the CIA to the FBI, change a burned agent to a convicted felon released to work with the FBI, and you've got White Collar. The plots are interesting, the good characters are likeable, and heck, some of the criminals are likeable also. I enjoy this series almost as much as Burn Notice.
