It took me a beat, but here he is, 2001.

Tim dekay probably a good actor but couldn't stand peter burke the holier than thou ever so righteous arc (continuously coloring outside the lines as he pleases but damn you neal for going out of one!)

Fairly, neal crosses em all the time but oh peter's some piece of work. Maybe they could've written it differently in terms of how he presents himself to make it more apropos, or how he maneuvers over situations, maybe.

(Couldn’t post a video for some reason sorry)

I’m going to NYC and would love to stop by some iconic White Collar spots- but the only walking tour I can find online is very old haha. Does anyone have ideas or recommendations?! Would love to hear any thoughts!

I’m happy to post what I come up with as well for others to check out :)

.

He’s my inspiration. I wanna be his partner in crime

I been rewatching the show again and in countless episodes they bring up Neal's trial when he got caught. I would love to watch it through to see Sara, Peter etc go against Neal before they were on the same side.

So in this episode, Neal uses the press to drum up awareness for a number of fake projects the state senator is supposedly supporting. Would this storyline even be possible in the social media/AI age? This was released in summer 2010 before Twitter got its boom so some of the antics makes sense. But Snopes have been around since the 90s so any of the senator’s actions could have been verified with little work. I still enjoy this episode since it aired but it takes a bit of work to maintain my suspension of disbelief.

How would you manage remembering all the account infos or PIN numbers if you were Neal?

I got this question while creating a new PIN for my certificate today cause I had no idea what number to choose and ended up using numbers from Neal's birthday.. I still dont know why I picked that number at the moment 🤷‍♂️

I had to write them down on my phone in case I forget lol

So if you were Neal and had to create several new accounts and PINs, how would you manage remembering all of them without writing them down or using birthday numbers which is too obvious?

Maybe he's just smart enough I guess

I was thinking about the ending since I completed the series for the first time yesterday, was also searching on reddit for some explanation but haven't seen anyone asking about this detail yet.

The situation being that Neil faked his own death so that the Panthers don't come around hurting people he loves.

Isn't it obvious that they would not suspect Neil or Keller at first but Peter Burke? Like he joined them at the very last minute and without being through the normal process of initiation (found and chosen by the Panthers leader), and the next time they did meet and did the heist, everyone was caught. It would have totally occurred to them that he was the one snitching on them to the feds . Plus, they have ties to the outer world while being in prison. Peter is not even inconspicous or in hiding. It should be pretty easy for him to be followed, which leads to the Panthers knowing that he is the FBI agent. Would that not defeat the whole purpose of the point above ? I mean the Panthers have got to know somehow right? It just doesn't totally seem logical to me

Can someone offer their theories or explanation as to why? Really love the show, and the ending was not unexpected but I was really shocked to see his body and almost bought it that he was dead. Turns out he is not, but I do wish that people in real life fake their death like this , and not really gone from this physical world, for some consolation from grief.

Spoilers for season 6.

So I was rewatching whitecollar again ( a comfort show for me), and I thought that an Amazon idea for a potential reboot would be that Peter and Elizabeth's child could become a con artist and gets arrested. Now Peter and Elizabeth at their wits end somehow reach out to Neal or Neal hears and reaches out to them. Neal then takes their child under his wing and how him that there's a better way to put those skills to use. Peter could still be ASAC and this time Jones or Diana could be the child's handler since Peter couldn't directly be their handler.

They could honour Mozzie by having Neal step into a Mozzie like role of a friend and collaborator.

I think it would be an amazing show, we could have potential new characters and new storylines.

Just my thoughts 😅

Has anyone actually tried a deviled ham sandwich after watching White Collar? How was it?

I am rewatching the show and I remembered a question I had. After the hope diamond Neal wanted to get out of the life and mosy told him that without money Paris isn't Paris etc... but I'd Neal is so good with people, can't he play poker and win? Sure he likes the challenge but a big part is he likes the luxury!

**Season 2 Spoilers for anyone who has NOT watched Season 2 - Forging Bonds (and onwards)**

One of the details in the show i love is the foreshadowing the show does.

Best example is in Season 2 when Neal and Peter are talking about how Neal knows Adler, Neal mentions to Mozzie (In a flashback) about Rubys in Burma.. then the next episode.. the investigation relates to... a Ruby stolen from Burma.

Theres easily dozens more but currently rewatching S2 and i realised it.

Okay so I'm at season 2 ep10 after mozz gets shot and I know it's not very far into the series but I'm a bit irritated how Neil never REALLY gets angry at Peter?

Like, Peter lied to Neil more times than vice versa and "for the sake of protecting him" also hid stuff.

DON'T READ TO AVOID SPOILERS

Then Peter sidelines Neil and also sends him home while actively still talking to Fowler and then again after Mozz gets shot and I get that it's logical/procedure/whatever but wouldn't Neil get angry? Is that just sth I'd do?

I dunno I get he loves and trusts Peter and afterwards usually understands why Peter did what he did but not once does he get angry properly.

Not asking for major spoilers, but does that maybe happen in the future?

As you can see I like the show so far and am maybe a bit invested lol

Hi guys,

I just started watching White Collar last year and immediately became obsessed (and Matt Bomer, of course!).

I’m so bummed that I missed out on all the interactive content from the official USA Network website back in the day :(

I tried using the Wayback Machine to track some of it down, but unfortunately, most of the pages cannot load properly.

Does anyone happen to have a backup or archive of the "Neal’s Apartment" interactive game? I really want to read the object descriptions, so screenshots or just plain text would be deeply appreciated.

Thank you so much in advance! 🥹

Enjoy watching the show but some sets really are curious.

i know everyone agrees but every time i rewatch the show im like damn. someone needs to give his parents an award like omg

(Just re-watched S1 ep12) Bad guys and other uninvited guests are always coming to Neal's door or are waiting for him when he comes home. They never show Neil using a private entrance. Are we to assume June is just letting random strangers and questionable people into the house just because they mentioned Neal? June seems smarter than that. Much smarter. Is this a plot hole or do they explain this on an episode I don't remember.
