“Burn Notice” Leaves You Breathless
Last night was the return of season three of Burn Notice. I was not disappointed. Curious, excited, yes, but not disappointed. I was happy the show picked up right where it leaves us off last season. It also did not allow you to ease into the episode; it grabbed you off your big, comfy couch and threw you right into the action.
We open with Michael coming out of the water he jumped into from the chopper where he had his meeting with the people that burned him. The chopper is flying off in the distance and Michael comes ashore only to be pursued by the police. It’s a chase seen opening! As the episode continues, Michael is volunteered for a job by Sam, which involves an old buddy of Michael’s. From what we’ve learned from Matt Nix, this is pretty much what we can expect from this season. People will be crawling out of Michael’s past, and maybe Fiona’s and Sam’s.
As the episode continues, Michael and Co. begin to understand just what life is going to be like now that the ‘protection’ that the Burn People supplied is gone. They begin to see that the only people they can truly trust is each other. In fact, Maddie nails it towards the end of the episode, when she tells them all that they need to “stick together”.
We are introduced to Moon Bloodgood in this episode. She plays Detective Paxon, who may very well be the replacement pain-in-the-ass for Carla. Even Michael takes her very seriously, and views her as a potentially formidable nemesis.
So, although the Burn People have backed off of Michael, this season should bring new challenges to overcome, and I, for one, am going to sit back and enjoy the season. Well, maybe not ‘sit back’.
