My mum and I watched this show years ago, pre-Disney+ and I can’t remember how far we got, but it faded out when we got busy and we never went back to it. I’ve decided to restart it (near the end of the pilot as I type) and it’s so good! It’s hilarious and Matt Bomer’s charisma just makes Neal really endearing.

I've started watching White Collar a few weeks ago, already on season 5, it's such a great and (relatively) light-hearted watch. My favourite character out of all television I've seen so far is Saul Goodman, but now he's tied with Mozzie, Mozzie is such a great character, a comedic treasure and a great friend. I wish everyone could find their Mozzie in real life :D

Perhaps this has been posted before. I watched the show 10 years ago, and I am rewatching it now. I love it just as much as back then!

But one thing is interesting and a little funny: the fact that the FBI is non-stop chasing Neal and only Neal. While Mozzie is actual the real brain behind almost every con.

Neal is talented. An excellent forger, artist and just good at thieving lol, lockpicking, etc. He has a lot of knowledge on many subjects. He also has the charm to pull of the cons.

But Moz? Good ol' Haversham? The "little guy"? Mozzie is on a whole other level.

He wasn't even present at the time Peter and Neil were forced by Adler to help with u-boat. Mozzie still managed to find the location of the treasure and steal everything before them. He relocated it several times. He managed to get it out of the country.

He helped Neal pull everything off. They need to steal something? Mozzie makes the plans. Needs a fence? Mozzie will find someone. Contacts to flee the country, get fake passports? He got you! He knows the whole underworld like the back of his hand. Figuring out codes? Sure thing Cracking the un-crackable anklet? Let him drink your whole whine cabinet, but there you go! You need something forged, welded, whatever? He is not only a genius, but also very handy!

Mozzie even put a hit on someone, and I just watched an episode where someone says (again) "ah no Mozzie gets full immunity on this one". But Neal? No no. One misstep and the guy has to hear for the 30th time how he will end up in jail. But without Moz, Neal wouldn't have made it this far in the criminal world. He definitely could have pulled of cons involving art and/or forgeries, but the bigger cons need planning, and Mozzie does all the work.

So credit where credits is due, Mozzie is a good criminal (but also a good friend) through and through! And where Neal charms his victims, he manages to charm the FBI time and time again

Neal gets most of the credit for being the con artist, but Mozzie is the guy who makes a lot of Neal's plans possible in the first place. Neal can walk into a room and convince somebody he's whoever he needs to be. Mozzie is the guy who already found the room, the person, the address, the escape route, the fake paperwork, and probably has a backup plan Neal doesn't know about. It's also funny how often Neal acts like Mozzie is just his weird little sidekick when he's basically running an entire parallel operation behind the scenes.

Saw so many comments and posts about how matt boomer is older now and that might affect the show considering Neal’s charm was what the show essentially relied on and I think neal can still be super charming, matt boomer is a gorgeous man. These photos are from TODAY. He still is very much neal caffrey lol

He looks like he could be Neal’s younger brother or cousin…. Talent runs in the Caffrey family.

In my head, they find each other again in Paris.

words cannot DESCRIBE how much I love him. there's just so much

Can we talk about how wonderfully this show wrote its female characters? They were all able to hold their own and then some.
