Watching again - Kramer

I’ve seen this show so many times I always watch once a year and I just absolutely can’t stand Kramer.

What’s funny is that Kramer thinks Neal would even come with him to DC like you want to trap him and take him to DC. The only way I see that even playing out is

  1. Neal says no and chooses prison instead (they can’t force him to be a consultant)

  2. Neal goes to DC only to run away cause he doesn’t wanna go back to prison but he also isn’t gonna work for Kramer.

Either way Kramer is a moron, what Peter said was so right that he doesn’t know how to handle him. Neal and Peter work because even though Peter is in charge he allows Neal his freedoms and they still share a friendship which is based on respect. Neal finds Peter challenges him but in ways he likes but it’s as Peter said “you cage him in and he’s gonna run.

Kramer is an idiot.

Quitting On Comeback

I have quit expecting a WHITE COLLAR TWO. I don't follow the rumors anymore.

Always thought there would be a 90 minute MADE FOR TELEVISION movie based in Paris.

Am i the only person who hated Mozzie in the baseball episode?

I love Mozzie BTW but omg I hated him in the baseball episode because he was a sucker for Taylor and I truly believe Mozzie would've back stab Neal if Taylor told him too

Crazy S2 / S4 parallel I missed until now

I’ve rewatched this show probably 6 times all the way through, but I just connected a detail that really scratched an itch on my brain lol!

I don't normally rewatch Season 4 as much as random episodes from Seasons 1 - 3, but I've been going through it again and realized it's honestly just as good as the early seasons. While watching the Season 4 finale ("In the Wind"), the bluesy, heavy guitar score during the climax where Neal confronts his dad felt super familiar. I spent forever searching for the episode I thought it was from, initially thought it was from the Pilot. Turns out, it's the exact same musical motif from Season 2, Episode 9 ("Point Blank")! The scene where he knocks everything off his desk. Using the exact same music for his two biggest breaking points is such an incredible piece of storytelling. The attention to detail in this show is soooo good.

Anyone else ever catch this? I tried searching the sub to find it but didn’t see anything!

I always thought they’d reveal that Kate’s death in the plane explosion was a hoax

in line with the show being a lot of subterfuge, I thought one day, Kate would pop up later in the series, especially since she was such a huge focus in the series origin

am I the only one?

I love when Mozzie had a quote off with Jeffery lol. For the past few years I've been living my life through those quotes and saying it to people

My favorite quote is A hard beginning maketh a good ending and without leaps of imagination we lose the excitement of possibilities. I say those two alot of people and it really makes them think lol

Unpopular take: Sara Ellis and Alex Hunter should have always had split the treasure from the very beginning

Alex Hunter had always known about it due to her grandfather and had been looking her entire life. Edit: Alex even had the original password so all she had to do was to headfake adler and just entered the password herself with absolutely 0 risk.

Sara Ellis did all the original leg work, going to Argentina, checking for Uboats, etc.

The men Neal, Mozzie, even Peter - their involvement were purely accidental (they wouldn't have even found the boat without adler kidnapping them).

Sara and Alex should have split the treasure. Sara would have turn her portion in and gotten 20% on value of her potion, and Alex would have liquidated her lot with enough to buy a mansion on Lake Como and retire to Italy forever.

Also, without Peter's involvement, there would have been absolutely no legal issues with the discovery. The jeopardy only arose because Mozzie pretended to blow it up, not because of the treasure itself. So Alex and Sara would have had absolutely no legal troubles, true salvage!
