Burn Notice will debut without commercials

by Adam Finley, posted Jun 25th 2007 6:39PM

burn noticeWhen the new USA series Burn Notice debuts this Thursday at 10:00 p.m., it will air without commercials. The first episode will be presented in its entirety by DIRECTV, so while you won't be seeing any ads, expected to hear a few allusions to the digital satellite TV service during the first couple episodes.

Burn Notice stars Jeffrey Donovan as a CIA spook who is given his "burn notice," (meaning: he no longer works for the CIA) and uses his skills to help out people in need. The series also stars Bruce Campbell, Gabrielle Anwar and Sharon Gless.

After the premiere of Burn Notice, Donovan's character Michael Westen will appear to thank everyone for watching. In this segment, Westen will be seen de-activating a tracking bug he found in his apartment, and then tossing it into a frying pan.

What is the name of the song/artist in the teaser commercial with lyrics like "get yourself connected...writing on the wall"?

This show was one once before in the late 80's. It was called "The Equalizer," and reruns can currently be seen on Universal HD.

Loved Touching Evil too. Happy he's back.

Looks like a terrific series. God knows we could use something. HBO new series suck beyond words. And there really hasn't been much new elsewhere.

Oh, and Gabrielle Anwar. Still looks super sexy after all these years when I first feel for her in 'A Scent of a Woman' 15 years ago

I'm a fan of Jeffrey Donovan, so I can't wait for the premiere of Burn Notice. And without commercials? An extra bonus.

I also liked his first series on USA, Touching Evil. Hopefully this show will last longer.

I am still mad they pulled Jeffrey Donovan's last show "Touching Evil" off the air. He is a great actor. I can't wait to check out this show.

Looks like a cool series. He was great in Touching Evil, but sadly they only did one series of that show.
