If you’ve missed out on Burn Notice‘s winning mix of good-looking stars, sunshine, spy tips and smart one-liners, then make sure you catch up this Sunday, 9 November.
Those lovely people at FX are repeating the first four episodes back-to-back from 4pm, followed by the latest instalment – Family Business – at 9pm.
If you haven’t seen it yet, a quick recap. Michael Westen, played by Jeffrey Donovan, is a spy who is ‘burned’ (fired to you and me) while on an assignment in Nigeria. While he tries to work out why he’s been given his notice, he hangs out in Miami earning some cash and helping out assorted friends and friends of friends by outsmarting various gunrunners, smugglers and prostitution racketeers.
Michael solves his cases with incredible charm, slick spy skills and endless one-liners, but it’s not just him who makes the show. Gabrielle Anwar, as his sexy, trigger-happy ex-girlfriend Fiona, and B-movie legend Bruce Campbell, as his loyal sidekick Sam Axe, bring warmth, humour and comradeship to the mix.
Burn Notice is a fun show and if you give it a go this Sunday, the chances are you’ll be hooked. You’ll then be ready to join me and other fans at the Burn Notice Facebook site, where you can catch up on series two pictures (they’re ahead of us in the States), spy tips from Michael and fans’ comments such as this one from Jack – ‘just love how fiona dont never wear no bra’ (sic).
Yup, Burn Notice – it’s got something for everyone!
