Burn Notice Season 3

[chazzyphizzle]

Yes.

[GRT]

Bleh, does the story progression suggest in any way that he will ever get out?

When he finds out who burned him...

[Azkarin2]

I rewatched the prior season and I was wondering if anybody could fill in a black spot for me....

Spoiler: show

So in last season's finale he finally met with the guy who burned him at the parking deck and before he could get any info out the guy who burned him was assassinated, right? Karla was supposedly the shooter but did we ever figure out why she shot the guy? (Besides needing Michael to steal various things (key card, Draganov, etc) for the hit in the end) I think the delay between seasons has caused me to blank on Karla's real role over the seasons.

As a rule, I typically think extensive voice overs are pretty much a cop-out device, but in the case of Burn Notice, I really like them a lot. I'm not sure why, but maybe because Michael is full of fun facts about the spy world.

If you can catch them, the earlier episodes of MacGyver have the same kind of voice-over factoids.. That kind of detail only adds to the appeal of of a show.

[BerenTebogo]

Best show ever.

Hands down. Really hope the actually advance the storyline this season though. First EP made it seem like they were just going to do the Carla shit allllll over again.

[chazzyphizzle]

Michael Irvin He'd best be gone soon.

[Jones]

Very fun episode. Although an Xzibit quote or two could have been appropriate.

Spoiler: show

Gogo ghetto armored car!

[Raevenblm]

yea wtf w/ Irvin in cameo lol

[Exoduso]

BTW, it's still Season 2, not 3 like the title suggests.

[Norelco]

Spoiler: show

I'm beginning to think that Carla got burned too.

[Elcura]

I really liked this episode, I know most people are eager to get onto the main storyline, but I love how he solves all these little problems. The way he messed with Felix the first couple of times was great to watch.

lol, I love the different accents he uses when he's undercover.

Yeah, but he's starting to repeat some of them. Need new ones!

[Exoduso]

Yeah I noticed that last week... oh well.

[Eaglestrike]

Good episode, plenty of excellent expressions from Michael towards Seymour, lol.

[Exoduso]

Seymour is great lol.

[Jones]

Seymour is great lol.

I'm hoping they keep him as a semi-regular like Barry the Money Launderer. Also, we had an entire episode without Carla! (i think, at least I don't remember her at all)

Next week's preview looks promising too.

[Norelco]

I'm really happy for Donovan, I think he totally deserves this.

He plays the coolest guy on TV. Now Jeffrey Donovan has a cool new raise to match.

The star of USA Network's breakout hit "Burn Notice" has renegotiated his pact with the series' producer, Fox TV Studios.

Under the new agreement, Donovan will be paid $125,000-$150,000 an episode, a big bump from the $55,000 he used to make.

As is the practice, especially in cable, the cost of the pay increase will be shared between FTVS and USA.

Donovan's new deal also adds one year to his original seven-year contract for the show.

"Notice," which launched in July 2007, is in the midst of the winter portion of its second season.

On the stylish action dramedy, Donovan plays Michael Westen, a blacklisted former spy helping people in need while tracking down the people who burned him.

It has become a star-making role for Donovan, who before that toplined USA's short-lived series "Touching Evil." He went on toco-star in Clint Eastwood's "Changeling."

"Burn Notice" ranks as the top cable drama series among adults 18-49. Its winter premiere two weeks ago hit a series high in the 18-49, which was eclipsed by a demo record last week.

Donovan is repped by Paradigm.

[kearnsy]

7year contract? Is that normal for a tv series to sign? Does that mean he's guaranteed that money if the show folds over in 2 years?
