Sheesh, do we have to make an rpg out of everything? ;)
Yeah, Burn Notice is fantastic. And yeah, the spycraft is cool and the fights are cool, but I was just thinking during last Thursday's episode how really cool it is that every single episode features movement on something like four fronts. I mean, there's the mission-of-the-week, plus Mike always gets a little closer to who burned him, plus he deals with some family discord, plus he deals with some Fiona discord, and every so often he even deals with some Sam discord. And although it is Mike's story, the supporting characters aren't completely meatless either. The pacing isn't always spot-on, but it's never boring...I'm not sure there's another show on TV that squeezes so much content into 45 minutes.
Which is all good, but it was the cute lead and the fact I'm a total geek for Bruce Campbell that brought me to it in the first place.
