Terrific acting, crackling dialogue and geek-hip crime are not the only things that make this the most electric drama to premiere this fall.

White Collar takes off in its own refreshing directions, with enough wit and sparkle to make the time fly by.

I never thought I`d be watching a drama and enjoying it, let alone a crime thriller type one. This one keeps you on edge for the next episode and the characters they`ve chosen for all angles are very fitting.

It's a formula that's worked so far, and if you've already loved shows like "Psych" and "Burn Notice" and "Royal Pains," why shouldn't you love White Collar?
80
This latest caper isn't at 'Burn Notice's" level yet, but based on the channel's track record, you'd be ill-advised to bet against it tracking down an audience.

This is a show packed with smart people who make things happen and, even when following a predictable forgery crime--one that shoots off into interesting side alleys--always are one step ahead of viewers' expectations.

The best thing about White Collar is DeKay and Bomer’s chemistry; DeKay in particular is able to wring subtle comedy from Burke’s irritation at Caffrey’s ability to get something for nothing.

The con-man-works-with-G-man series is already a well-oiled machine, which is both good and bad. Good, because the interplay between Matt Bomer's hipster criminal and Tim DeKay's square fed is crisp; bad because the plots are often wilted.

One of the 5 best shows on TV. Sleek, smart, sexy, sophisticated. Love the plots, twists, writing. Love the characters, acting, and locations. Wouldn't change a thing about this show.

White Collar is a brilliant show. Its success rests largely on the great chemistry between the two main characters and the impressive script. Worth watching for sure, I would give it a nine and a half.

Doesn't hook you from the start. It's a series that simmers for a while before taking off. It's one you have to stick with (took me almost the full first season) but I stuck with it and proving to be a good choice. The writing and acting are sharp and punchy. While it may not be the best cast series out there (case in point - Tiffani Thiessen), the two leads make up for it. The secrets between the two leads also plays well per episode and the new stories seem to flow well through the series. Glad I got into it eventually.

Here's an idea. Let's get an ex-criminal to help the FBI solve cases because FBI agents who have dedicated their entire lives to solving cases are witless nimrods. Without the help of Neal Caffrey the entire bureau would be worthless. Oh, let's not forget that Neal dresses like a really cool cat from 50 years ago. We get it...Neal's a lost soul and the FBI is his lifeline. Thanks for the blatant imagery.

Lame. The concept was plausible but the writing is too lazy. I watched two episodes and finally gave up. If the FBI was as incompetent as these characters, we'd be in deep chit. These people can all act so, how bout giving them some material to work with. Im no writer and I realized it's a difficult job but, come on. Put some effort into it. Don't simply have ta key witness abducted while under protection (that's where I gave up) unless you show a plausible scenario. Everyone knew it was gonna happen anyway because the whole show made these leaps throughout. **** apparently popular. I must be a more demanding audience.
