A new season of Burn Notice is starting up again this week; Thursday, JAN 21 at 9pm CST on USA Network. It's one of my favorite shows. It's got a bit of everything, drama, love, comedy, action.

Burn Notice marathon starts at 5am on Thursday, with episodes from previous seasons.

Anyone know how long this season lasts?

It's technically just a continuation of season 3, of which they aired the first 9 episodes last summer. There are only 7 left now.

good ep, I like how all the villain's have a mancrush on Michael, seems like everyone knows how big a badass he is and he's even cooler because he doesn't consider himself to be one.

Will Micheal ever realize that he doesn't need to get un-burned and his part time job helping people is actually what he really wants to do anyway? You'd think Fiona, at least, would point this out since she's so against him taking the risks to get back in.

1)Right now he's put that aside since no one will talk to him on account of the CIA guy dying.

2)Wouldn't him not trying being against the whole premise of the show, him getting his Burn Notice undone?

I see where you're coming from but it kills the premise of the show. They'll have to save that part of the story until the last season. To give a practical answer, he'd have more tools at his disposal. Think about the difference in trying to help people as a sub-citizen in Florida and running around the world saving the day with the full might of the Federal government behind you.

Plus, it's what he wants to do. I'm sure he likes being useful, but helping a local store owner with a petty street thug is a bit different than stopping Iran from becoming a Nuclear power.

Yeah, but on the other hand I think part of Micheal's arc is coming to grips with the.. ambiguity.. that came with his old job and no longer being able to live with the moral compromises. And big part of what he's doing now is that there is no ambiguity in protecting some family being muscled by local hoods.

Yeah but Burn Notice is one of those shows, like The X-Files, where they can never really resolve anything without fundamentally changing the show. The hero can only have small victories but when it comes to the big picture must always fail.

So eventually either Micheal gets his old job back and the show is completely changed. Or Micheal accepts that he's never getting his old job back and the show is completely changed...

I'm just saying that the solution seems pretty obvious though it's not surprising that Micheal wouldn't be able to see it. A little surprising that nobody (especially Fiona but maybe even his mother or perhaps even Sam) has pointed it out to him yet.

Just watched the new ep on hulu. Liked it of course but one little quibble.

Spoiler:
At the end he reveals that the records office was broken into so the old woman can keep her job. Why not just steal the records he needs in the first place?

Yeah that bothered me too, but I think he needed them on a fairly short timeframe (i.e. a matter of hours, while the office was open), but then again I was not paying a huge amount of attention while watching.

And it'd be much easier for the clerk to find the records in a short period of time then he would be able too.

Plus, it allowed Cagney and Lacey to be reunited.

Instant recognition when they met. We had to immediately pause and clue in the younger generation that was watching it with us. It was a nice little moment.

Regarding getting his old job back. It will probably be like they did with monk, where after 8 seasons of trying to get his job back, He finally gets it in the last season and then quits because he likes the way things were.
