    It's smartly acted, well written, funny, expertly directed and hugely entertaining. And utterly, totally, profoundly devoid of pretension.

    Nix and company had a very thing going last season, and they've found a way to change the show a little without screwing it up.

    Everything isn't perfect on Burn Notice. Some of the subplots have to be wrapped up a little neatly. But the interplay of the core group has enough ambivalence and shadows to keep the show intriguing.

    The interplay among the main characters is by and large unaltered, and for some fans that will be enough. For others, though, what was once a summer pleasure is now a bit less pleasurable.

    An improvement but still not that good. The episodes are still the same recycled mess and it does expand the backstory a bit but it still doesnt do much to hold your interest. If you are a fan of this type of show then you will love it but other then that, This is one show you wont mind missing.… Collapse
