TNT has picked up Leverage for a 15-episode third season to air next summer.
The con artist drama, which concludes its summer run on Sept. 9 and then returns this winter to finish out its second season, has been averaging a healthy 4.1 million viewers.
I have a hunch this news is going to make a lot of people very happy. Go ahead and confirm my suspicions in the comments section.

Very good news. Next to “The Closer” this is my favorite TNT original.
Leverage who?
Yes. This is my favorite show on TNT. I hope they renew Dark Blue. I know it is getting mixed reviews, but it is a good show and it has a great male cast that is great eye candy.
I agree MJ, Dark Blue is an intelligent and compelling show.
Great news. Leverage is a top-notch show.
Good! Glad to hear it. This is such a snappy, fresh show – I can’t wait to see what kind of hot mess the crew will get themselves into each week. Nice going TNT.
Excellent News! Last night’s episode with Will Wheaton was hilarious!
MY FAVORITE SHOW!!! I, therefore, forgive the lack of scoop in today’s Ask column . . .
One of the best shows on TV! Last night’s episodes was excellent.
I am very happy!!
VERY happy about this! Love this show, and like the new Boston setting this season!
I heart leverage!!! This is the best news today.
I want to like this show so bad. Keep watching and watching waiting for the horrible writing/production to improve. Love the cast- but the show needs to get better.
Agreed Dorian. This show has a great concept and characters, but some of the episodes are just way too far fetched or poorly written. I will say that I have liked the last two or three, so I’m hoping things keep improving.
This news has made me VERY happy! This is far and away the best show on TV (cable and network). This season has been top notch and just when I think an episode can’t get any better they prove me wrong! Plus another season of viewing the eye candy that is Christian Kane.. we’ll I’ll be smiling for days
I completly agree! How hot was last night’s episode when him and the female version of him were fighting? I totally wish I was that actress!! He is hot and so is this show!
Very GOOD News!!!!
This is my favorite show on TNT! I’m glad it is coming back. This show is very original and dynamic
I loved season one, but season two hasn’t been as good in my opinion. Hope season three is better!
Can you say HAPPPPPPPYYYYYYY!!! yeah!
I LOVE Leverage!! This is indeed amazing news!
I’d be a lot happier if the show aired in Canada! Who do I have to talk to to make that happen!!!!
Kat with a K here (I am evil). First thought? Awesome! Its like a modern day A-team (according to Dr. Mom who was a huge fan of Hannibal and the gang). I agree, but much better looking cast and no Mr. T, both huge pluses. And Christian is back.
I LOVE THIS SHOW!!! IT’S SNAPPY AND FRESH!
YAY!!! I love Leverage!!!!
I hope they renew Dark Blue also!
Good news! I thought the first two episodes this season were weaker than usual, (especially the elliot-centric MMA episode, sadly), but it’s come right back into form since then. Definitely enjoy it.
Excellent news! Leverage has become my favorite show. The writers and cast do an awesome job of bringing the right amount of action, heart, and humor to each episode. Last night’s (8/26) is an instant classic.
consider yourself confirmed! ☺
Lisa: if you watched “Hustle” on CBC in Canada, then you have basically seen Leverage – it is a knock-off, and a pretty good one that, for the most part, deserves the praise it is receiving. Hustle is running on BBC Canada, should you want to give it a view.
Yeah Im sooooo happy!
Yes, Leverage will be back!! I needed some good news today, and there it is! Thanks TNT!
YEAH!!! I love this show, especially Timothy Hutton. The end of last night’s show was “Oh so close, yet oh so far!” Love Nate and Sophie!
Leverage forever!
Loves it! Great show and so glad it was renewed. Consider your suspicions confirmed…
