Michael agrees to help two young women get out from under a blackmail scheme in which they are being forced to smuggle heroin.  At the same time, Michael tries to arrange a meeting with Philip Cowan, the man who burned him.
Michael must work his underworld contacts in Miami to rescue Sam who's being held hostage by a former Special Forces unit involved in heroin smuggling. At the same time he must evade government agents who are after him.
Michael comes to the aid of a woman whose estranged husband has disappeared with her son. He tracks down the husband, and finds himself matched against an opponent just as skilled and deadly as he is but more ruthless.

Author: jpooch00 from United States

When I found out that Bruce Campbell was only in a supporting role I thought this was going to be just another USA ripoff. I was wrong.

In this incredibly overworked genre Burn Notice is something refreshingly new. The Mom and her meddling is an inventive twist that adds interest to the stories and the addition of all the beach bunnies running around in the backgrounds of many of the shots is shamelessly flagrant sexism at its finest. The story lines are interesting and the plot twists are acceptably resourceful.

In my opinion, Mr. Campbell should be the lead character but, hey, what do I know? Anyway, I intend to watch every episode. Got a season Pass on the Tivo.

Check it out, I think you'll like it.

John
