Burn Notice: “Lesser Evil”
I’m not sure what to say about tonight’s season finale. It did everything Burn Notice does well, only bigger. Much, much, BIGGER. Two big car chases, bombs and fireballs, and the biggest blowup to Michael’s situation we’ve seen since the season one finale made this the most packed hour I can recall. Despite all the…

Burn Notice: “Sins of Omission”
Well it wasn’t the right time when we met. It wasn’t the right time when we started dating. It wasn’t the right time when I moved to Miami. No, it was the right time to tell me when she showed up on your front step. Is that about right? We’re winding down the season and…

Burn Notice: “Hot Spot”
Fiona: Michael McBride. Sometimes I wonder if he’s the one I fell in love with. Michael: I wouldn’t be surprised. We caused a lot of mayhem, you and I. He was your type of guy. Fiona: Yes you were. Where did he go? Michael: Oh you know how it is with cover IDs. You become…

Burn Notice: “Do No Harm”
Michael’s old toys. Most of them are blown up or taken apart, but I bet we can find a few good ones. My normal conceit when doing a Burn Notice review is to do a short recap in the character Michael took on for the scam, but I’m not feeling Donny ((He’s a little bit…

Burn Notice recap: “Good Soldier”
They said this thing: ‘As iron sharpens iron, so man sharpens another man.’ And I realized, Proverbs 27:17? That’s you and me. You showed me the way. – Michael Westen You might wonder how I got there, you know? I’ve been down for so long, with my ex and everyone against me, I never thought…

Burn Notice recap: “Double Booked”
What’s that? You didn’t think what? What? You didn’t think Roth would ever get arrested for selling cocaine? What then chucklehead? He’s gonna flip! – Michael Westen Oh, Mike and I go way back. ’91 or ’92, the Balkans. He’s a good kid. And he knows the score, too. I’ve taken a look at his…
