Bottom line. USA has the best original programming on network and basic tier cable. In fact, I like a lot of their stuff better than pay cable.

Now, if only they could get the US Open back from ESPN...

The show's first episode hooked me totally. It's the ONLY tv show I always watch, and it is, hands down, the BEST overall drama/comedy/cult story in twenty years. There is little on any network worth watching. This story has it all: intrigue, mystery, humor, terrific action, several layers of internal dialogue, ethical questionings, tremendous acting, super settings and cinematography and an old-fashioned Robin Hood style morality that demonstrates the shades of gray inherent in modern society. Sam is one helluva second-man character.

Burn Notice is the best show on TV today. What viewers love is not only the action and fun of the show, but the clever writing that leaves us laughing or can tug at our heart, but is not dumbed down. It is wonderful to have an intelligent script where the audience does not feel miserable after watching.

And the most important ingredient is the amazing cast.
I would watch classically trained Jeffrey Donovan, Gabrielle Anwar, Bruce Campbell, and Sharon Gless together in anything now. They are brilliant!

All good points, but I'd also add the razor sharp wit, fun banter, and plausible dialogue and characters. It's a simple premise and story, but the details are the real winner.

This show should get more acclaim! It is so good! I'm glad it stayed on USA because I remember watching these commercials during re-runs of House and thinking "Not another cop/spy show..." People are really tuning in to this well made scripted show. It would be nice to have it run on syndication and maybe even like Dexter did a while back run in the summer/Saturdays. And a movie? If the script is good, yes.

2010 "Burn Notice will do it again Love My show.

I'm glad the ratings are good, I love this show 2010 "Burn Notice hit it again. I'll be watching next mid season show USA best characters welcome.

I just recently got into Burn Notice & I love it! Now I hear Michael Weston's voiceover in my head... for example, while reading this blog post. The second paragraph works really well as a Michael Weston VO.

After that last finale I've been rewatching all the old episodes of Burn Notice. It's just as awesome the second time around! I'm glad this show didn't get picked up by one of the "Big 4" networks, or else it probably would've been canceled, or at least not given the treatment it deserves, like another spy show I know of (*cough* Chuck *cough*).

Love, love, love the show. Definitely the most underrated show on television. Mad Men is my favorite current show, but Burn Notice is second. It's so consistently stellar.
