TNT orders more 'Leverage'

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 18 (UPI) -- TNT says it has added two episodes to the summer run of its hit U.S. series "Leverage," starring Timothy Hutton.

The additional installments will air on Sept. 2 and Sept. 9, the network said.

Former "Star Trek: Voyager" actress Jeri Ryan is to begin a new recurring role as Tara, a grifter who helps the team out, in the Sept. 9 finale.

In the series, Hutton plays Nate Ford, a "former insurance investigator determined to bring down the kind of corrupt bigwigs whose neglect led to the death of his son," TNT said in a news release.
