hank213 1,824 Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 Bump. new season tonight. Link to post Share on other sites
Ron_Mexico 4,232 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Michael took $500k from that lady in the new ep and gave the client his $250k back and "some extra" for the kids college fund. He better of taken a hundred thousand at least. I mean, they do a lot of expensive recon and never seem to take the cash. That's the only hole for me, besides him not being a suspect in numerous Miami shootouts. But seriously, I watched 5 eps this weekend and Sam stayed at a South Beach hotel for 5 or so days, scouting Carla, ordering food and Mohitos, he ordered Johnny Walker Blue a couple of times at the bar while working a con, Fiona ordered "your best champagne". They should have shown him taking $150k and passing some out to Sam and Fi and keeping some, just to shore up the plot a tad.I still love the show though. Link to post Share on other sites
Ron_Mexico 4,232 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Only two more new eps this season. Yay. Still loving this show. Link to post Share on other sites
pokerinc 0 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 loving this season, I feel like it's gotten better. The bank ep was a lot of fun.Also, considering I think he kept the art worth millions from the ep a few weeks back (is that true?) I think their recon should be financed for a while.Bruce Campbell makes this show. He's the freaking man. Link to post Share on other sites

Bruce Campbell is great. I have to look at what else he's done. He seems familiar but I can't place him. Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure they'll idiot proof it before next weeks episode. Link to post Share on other sites

Ron_Mexico 4,232 Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Listen buddy, you needs to be watching your step in the Burn Notice thread. This show is the shit.I was surprised that he ditched them. For some reason, I figured he'd keep going with them and work from the inside. I guess he took Victor's advice and just gave up worrying about who burned him. I also guess that he'll be a full time good Samaritan next season, which starts in June, which is awesome. Although, I'm sure they'll dig up the extra storyline as well. Link to post Share on other sites

Which will lead to him signing back on to work for them and trying to bring it down from within. Link to post Share on other sites

I thought the ending showed that it was "the machine" that burned him, that it happens to most good operatives, and that he wanted to do his own thing from now on.I think Season 3 is going to be his former enemies coming after him (and the 5-0, considering he doesn't have fed protection anymore). Not sure what the larger storyline will be, but maybe he hasn't given up looking for the individual that burned him yet? Link to post Share on other sites
Ron_Mexico 4,232 Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 either way, it's gonna be good. Link to post Share on other sites
Ron_Mexico 4,232 Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 new season starts Thursday night at 9pm on USA. If you haven't seen this show, watch it. They are running all of the episodes from start to finish before Thursday. It's a very clever show Link to post Share on other sites
hank213 1,824 Posted June 3, 2009 Author Share Posted June 3, 2009 I read a brief preview of the first episode and it appears as if they might widen the setting a bit and start having some scenes outside of Miami. Could be kinda cool. Link to post Share on other sites
hank213 1,824 Posted June 12, 2009 Author Share Posted June 12, 2009 The first episode felt a bit rushed, trying to cram too much into too short a time span so they had to skip B to get from A to C in the time allotted, but still pretty good overall.Last night's was excellent. The bit with same toward the end of the job to get the bad guys to go off was great. Link to post Share on other sites

speedz99 145 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I didn't like that ending. I mean, how would it make any sense that management would be anything but grateful? Why would he do anything but leave Michael alone or put him back into action?Also, the whole "put the superbad guy in a remote prison" thing didn't make sense. You just kill the guy, right?Anyway, this was the first season of the show that I've watched and in general I enjoyed it. Link to post Share on other sites
Swift_Psycho 1 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I didn't like that ending. I mean, how would it make any sense that management would be anything but grateful? Why would he do anything but leave Michael alone or put him back into action?Well we really don't have any idea what management is going to do yet, since they left the ending so vague. Theoretically they could just leave Michael alone and thank him still. With that said, they have quite a bit of leverage at this point since even though he saved management, he put himself in a position where he needs management to keep him from serving a long prison sentence. Obviously the "right" thing to do would be to free Michael and leave him alone from now on, but it isn't hard to believe that "management" is not the most stand-up moral human being. Plus on top of everything, they have to keep the show's sense of confusion. The show loses a layer of complexity if Michael just becomes a dude who helps people randomly and isn't trying to figure out all this burn crap on the side.With all that said, I think the show is in decline from the earlier seasons, but still very entertaining to me anyway.

I also need to watch the first two seasons of Psych. Link to post Share on other sites

That commercial seriously couldn't be any less help in letting you know what the show is about. Link to post Share on other sites
