White Collar [* Spoilers *]

Excellent ep. there last night, good humour as well. Decent main story arc and nice to see Alex back, the main series arc of Kate was progressed a little bit as well with the key and the music box.

hehe!...glad i'm not the only one that has noticed the very fake looking scenes with Peter' wife:

• This week's "Elizabeth and the green screen" scene was the best one yet. It didn't seem too fake. But I'm still sick of these scenes. Maybe they can spice up the scenes in the next couple of weeks. Show Elizabeth on the moon, or maybe show Godzilla behind her if she's in Japan. Anything to liven up those scenes.

I thought the ep. was ok, not as good as last week. Like i said of series 1, it's a very hit and miss kinda show, one really good ep. and one average, it pings back and fourth in quality every ep.



More green screen quotes:

• My God, they really have to stop with the outrageously awful green screen scenes with Elizabeth talking on the phone with Peter. Honestly, just tell us that Elizabeth is out of town on some business trip and we'll believe you. Maybe you can show her sitting in a chair or in an office or in a restaurant. You don't have to show a green screen of a skyline or the Golden Gate Bridge. I'm serious. I think I speak for all fans of the show when I say WE BELIEVE YOU.

• I know that Tiffani Thiessen was pregnant when this episode was filmed and they used a green screen for a supposed trip to San Francisco last week, but was that also green screen they used in the scene when Elizabeth and Peter were having lunch at the outdoor cafe? It certainly looked like it. If Thiessen couldn't be in New York or on the set somewhere, couldn't they just have them eat at home or in some place that they could re-create with a table and a wall?

^ it was!...i noticed that right away, you can always tell "cheap" green screen.

^ ah!..NO!...Kate should stay dead!!!!, what could she possibly offer the show or Neal?....

Mid season finale next week, this weeks ep. had a fair bit on the music box with Peter and Neal coming together, sharing what they know and putting all the pieces together (literally). I'm hoping that Fowler is just a grunt and there is another "Mr. big" for them to go after.

Rumour has it renewal is on the cards (3rd season).

Mid season finale tonight!....returns january 2011 :-)

White Collar returns for new eps. on Tuesday January 18th.

Good start to the new run of episodes. The back story is getting very convoluted though. Puzzles within puzzles within puzzles within puzzles. This guy is pulling the strings of this guy, who was pulling the strings of this guy, who was pulling the strings of that guy. Getting a bit silly now.

Mozzie out of danger before the title sequence even appeared definitely belittled the great cliffhanger from Episode 9.

Great episode overall though.

Ah lad, nothing complicated about that ep. or the backstory
I understood it all, the fractal equation is being used to do some huge con, someone who trained Neal all his skillz. :cool:

I got a real sense of Ocean's Eleven in Burke's Seven - great to see Peter's wife in on the con, ahem...i mean sting
Very good return, tight story...we all knew Mozzie would pull through though, this equation business seems interesting.

I think they may wrap up the Neal/Kate backstory this season and move on, they are setting up Neal and yer wan from OTH...Sara, meh...boring.
Neal and Alex have WAY more chemistry + backstory, glad to have the bromance back on tv!

Next weeks episode looks epic!
