White Collar is not half bad.
-
Dear readers,
since there is nothing (NOTHING!) on telly due to the Olympics I have been catching up on my reading (on a side note The Gunslinger is doing my head in and I can totally understand why many people gave up on Dark Tower after reading it). And not that I mind the Olympics, I can watch curling like a regular person
but there is nothing on. NOTHING!I did start watching White Collar – have you seen it yet dear readers? It started airing back in October but at the time I thought I will not have enough time to watch anything new so I just passed it in wide berth. (Ha! Little did I know.)
White Collar is a crime dramedy (yes dramedy I’ve seen it used before. Although it is more of a medy then dra if you know what I mean) and it airs on USA Network. Peter Burke (played by Tim DeKay) is an FBI agent who specializes in white collar crimes. When he learns that Neil Caffrey (played by Matt Bomer) escapes prison with 3 months left on his sentence he knows something is up. See Caffrey is a conman, forger and expert in fine arts who Burke managed to put behind bars. Twice.
So when Bruke catches up with Caffrey for the third time, Caffrey offers to work on a case with him in order not to return to jail. And unlikely partnership begins.
The supporting cast includes Tifanni Thiessen (who I really disliked on Beverly Hills 90210 but quite like now), Willie Garson (of Sex and the City fame) and Diahann Carroll to name a few.
White Collar can be somewhat weak at times but the story lines are passable and it has just the right amount of light and frothy (like majority of USA Network shows) to keep you coming for more. Not to mention New York porn is quite spectacular.
Down below you can check out the White Collar trailer. And since there is no Supernatural for the next 5 weeks you have plenty of time to catch up.
