America loves a winner!


Liked it. Cool that Michael was in , early on.

It wasn't 'great', because I found much of the action to be overly cartoonish. 1 good guy bites it ? Is that all ? Might have missed some , as I didn't watch start to finish. But I got the basic story.

I like the Super Secret Scheduling...not. Not listed on DVR BN Series Record.

Thank the gods for DVRs with Upcoming listings.

At least BC lost a ton of weight. Makes the prequel sell work. Looks like he did in his old Ugly Dead movies.

It wasn't totally super secret. If you follow Jeffrey Donovan on Twitter and are a fan of Burn Notice on Facebook, you were well informed for months. Jeffrey Donovan would tweet occasionally about the filming. (He directed the movie) And the Facebook page posted feeds and increased the promotion as the date came closer.

FF is the only series I follow on the cortex.

The rest seem boring on the interwebs.

If not for FFF I'd have never known.

DVR replays it on Tuesday on USA Channel.

Yeah, I could only get halfway through it. Just didn't feel like the Burn Notice I know and love.

I thought it was kinda okay but agree that it was too cartoonish and it didn't have the feel of BN to it. But then it wasn't about Michael, it was about Sam, so I could live with that.
Nice to see Bruce in the lead but it also had that cheap B-movie feel to it and if it hadn't had the BN connection this probably wouldn't have even been made.

I wonder if any of the characters will turn up in the regular series?
