| This is a poster worthy of White Collar |
Many thanks to my friend Doctor_Fangeek who just alerted me to the new poster for Season Four, and the link to the EW article. Love the new tagline - "Sometimes It's Good To Be A Little Bad." Definitely not as angst-producing as "Chose a Side."

I like the S4 tag line too - because it's fun to see Neal being a little bit bad :-) But given Peter's "cross the line" statement in the trailer, maybe Neal won't have the exclusive corner on badness!
I do hope that we don't have to go through any more major blow-ups between Neal and Peter. Been there, done that enough. I get that there may never be complete trust between the guys - both Matt and Tim have talked about that in interviews - but let's not tear them apart. Maybe a threat that targets both of them...

Agree - don't mind banter but they should be friends. Heard about possible fisticuffs which would not be acceptable and just stupid and out of character.
Still no Peter on the promo poster... :-(
While the entire cast is great and I love Peter / Tim, Neal is the the primary character and Matt is the primary star and USA networks biggest star now so the poster is perfect. WC marketing has been perfect with commendations in Ad Week and others so no change needed.
I'm with Aragana--I love the poster, I love the logo, I love the city in the background, but I want Peter too!
I'll third that. I don't subscribe to Neal being the center of the show, for me it's Neal and Peter's relationship. If Peter wasn't there, I wouldn't be watching. Change is needed to the ads, Peter should be included.

I love this poster. And I absolutely agree that Neal is the the primary character and Matt is the primary star. I like Peter but I don't think change is needee to the ads.
Of course Neal is the primary character of WC. All the taglines, posters & promos from last 3 years should be enough to prove this point. And I think Jeff E. & Co. too agree that Neal is the focal point of this show since they never expressed any kind of objection, disagreement or disapproval toward the promotions. It always seemed they are happy with the posters/promos (judging from their tweets).
@Agnila: I agree with you, it's not even debatable. The original poster is what dragged in millions of viewers on day one. They've been perfect.
Neal is the main promoted character. but if you look at the show it's as much about Neal as Peter. Really. They have as much screen time and character development. Plus, what draws people to the show is the bromance. Just look at the upset commentaries when they tear our boys apart. The core of the show is the relationship between Neal and Peter, so that is what should be advertised.
Neal is the main character, was cast first. Tim and the other cast members got their roles only when they could prove chemistry with Matt who is also the highest paid and now the networks biggest star
