Good stuff. Glad I decided to start DVRing this a few weeks ago. Bummer about the long wait for Season 2, though.

Entourage: 8, 14, 20 (split into 12/8), 12
Californication: 12
Big Love: 12, 12

Monk: 12, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16

I don't know if Rescue Me and The Riches have two hour finales, but that would explain the odd number off episodes I suppose.

My whole point was, that they are all fairly short. None of them are like major network shows with 23-24 a year.

The finale was badass. This is probably my favorite show right now. Very clever & entertaining.

But god fucking damn that mother is so annoying. They better can her for next season, because Weston's whole back-story with the needy annoying family is just terrible. I want to shoot both his mom and brother in the face every time they get airtime.

100% the reason I DLed it. Was having dinner with some people the other night and someone mentioned it and I brushed it off until I heard Campbell's name mentioned. Immediately downloaded all available episodes. First one was pretty decent, pretty funny.

Saw some folks talking about the show in other threads, and wanted to point out that the new season starts in July. Until then, they're showing encores of the 1st season every week.

Figured you Burn Notice watchers would like to know!

Season 2 begins July 10th. There's expected to be a total of 16 episodes with 9 airing this summer and the remaining 7 for Spring '09.

Tricia Helfer from BSG will join the show for a multiple episode arc.

I enjoyed season 1, Campbell of course was a highlight. I still wonder if Richard Schiff will pop up again even though they made it look like he was dead onscreen, his appearance was so brief that either he will pop up again or he owed the director a gambling debt?!

Adding Tricia Helfer to the mix is even better news, they can feel free to swap her role with Anwar's, never been all that keen on her! I'm hoping to read any day now they ditched at the very least his fuckwit brother and Gless as well if they really want to please this audience.

As for the actual storyline, wonder how long they can drag out the main arc of who did what and why? One more (full) season on top of this one if they are only making 16 and splitting it into 2 mini seasons anyway?

I like Anwar but pretty disappointed they ditched her accent. Made her way sexier. The mum and brother are kind of dead weight, but guess they add a more normal element to the show.Would not be sad to see them go though.

Just fyi to everyone, you can now watch all of season 1 at USA Network if you don't want to do the torrent thing or buy the dvd.

Malakriss · 06-24-2008, 05:10 PM

Michael Shanks (Stargate SG-1) will guest star in a four-episode story arc on the successful USA Network series Burn Notice, his official Web site is reporting.

Shanks will play Victor, described by Spoiler TV as "a spy who has been working for the Burn Notice Organization (BNO) for some time. A well-traveled operative, who's seen and done it all, Victor is every bit Michael's [series lead Jeffrey Donovan] equal when it comes to knowledge and ability. But while Michael has some regard for human life, Victor is a wild card, who has no qualms about leaving collateral damage in his wake. Victor encourages Michael to embrace his new life as a burned spy."

Shanks' first episode will be "Bad Blood," the sixth of the new season -- currently scheduled to air on August 14, according to Michael Shanks Online.

This show has some of the best action on TV. The jokes are a little flat, but Jeffrey Donovan rules. If you like him you need to see Touching Evil, it's like xfiles but weirder?

Gromit · 07-10-2008, 07:15 PM

New season starting tonight!

kcxiv · 07-11-2008, 03:07 AM

Damn it, i forgot. This is one of my favorite new shows. Guess i gotta torrent the bitch.

Dabamf · 07-11-2008, 02:58 PM

First episode of this season was very weak I thought. It was a classic cop-out of the main story arc just to drag it on, the job was kind of lame and it just as a whole wasn't very entertaining. I hope the other episodes pick back up.
