After taking an extended break from the site, I’m back and I’ll start things off with an advance review of tonight’s season premiere of Burn Notice. Since it’s an advance review, I’m not going to spoil everything.
A lot has happened for Michael Westen (Jeffrey Donovan) since the third season finale and it’s taken a toll on his mother. When they’re eventually united, Madeline Westen (Sharon Gless) isn’t nearly as enthusiastic to see her son as most people would think. Then again, one must remember the hell the FBI put her through during last year’s season finale.
Gabrielle Anwar as Fiona Glenanne
After reuniting with mom, Michael met up with friends Sam (Bruce Campbell) and Fiona (Gabrielle Anwar). The duo have kept up with Michael’s little business of helping out people, but they were in need of help when asked to take out a biker gang. The constant bickering between Sam and Fiona has only increased because of Michael’s disappearance after last season. I thoroughly enjoy any time Sam and Fiona are forced to work together.
The outlaw biker gang plot didn’t hold my interest as much as the plot possibilities introduced when Michael’s actions caused a spy’s life to be changed forever. What happens and just how it goes down will have to be learned later tonight when the premiere airs on USA Network.
