  1. I keep seeing Leverage described as ‘Robin Hood’ .. I think a better comparison is Ocean’s 11. They’re not steal from the arbitrary rich to give to the arbitrary poor (as per Robin Hood) instead they’re seeking revenge from specific people for specific people. Neither are necessarily poor or rich (cf. S01E01)
