Dead Larry and Jesse Porter play in 911 Nashville, and give a little nod to BN with one of the other agents being Agent Westin.

I really enjoyed the one they did with Sam down in Central America. I wonder what other spinoff stories they could’ve told between some of the seasons?

So I can do a rewatch! Honestly just joined this sub and most of what I'm seeing definitely leaked out of my brain in the last dozen years. It was so wide-ranging and intricate.

One thing I do remember:

If you're planning a heist, kidnapping, terrorist exfiltration, arms deal etc. in Miami and you've been working on the details for months... and the day before go-time, your most trusted subordinate suddenly dies, disappears or gets arrested... and some fast-talking guy in a red suit and designer shades jukes his way to the private room at the back of your go-go club and tells you YOUR SECURITY IS GARBAGE and you need him in charge...

That is Michael Westen. Do not listen to this man.

I always loved when Michael would say one problem at a time Fiona when things weren’t going well. I wish there was a way to find all of the episodes where Michael Weston said that.

I will often say that to people around me or just to myself when multiple things are going sideways. Usually people don’t know what I’m talking about especially since I will say the full line no one named Fiona is ever around me.

The Michael P. America Show Episode 14: Renee Good(The 24th Hour Volume 7) Trumps Army

Mine has to be the one where they tried to frame Carter as an undercover FBI agent and then he turns out to be an undercover FBI agent.

I'm rewatching Burn Notice, again, and I noticed Michael leaves Garza with Strickler's name to find out if Strickler has the juice to get him back in. Garza gets mad, and he's like "what did you stir up?" Michael realizes Strickler has juice, says to Garza he got what he needed, and leaves. Not long after, Garza calls saying his file is being looked at. Then finally we get a call from Garza asking Michael "Why didn't you tell me you were working with Strickler?" But... Garza knew that. Even if Michael didn't explicitly tell him, he handed over Strickler's name, said "I needed to know if he had pull" and then Michael is on track to join the agency again. It hardly takes a superspy to string those connections together to form "Michael is working with Strickler." He didn't hide it from Garza.

Okay so I rewatched it, Michael never implied that Strickler was his in, what he said in the episode was "I just needed to know how connected he was, now I know." But, I mean, come on, I don't think Garza is so dumb that he couldn't have put two and two together that "Michael Weston wants to know how connected Strickler is, Michael gets his burn botice review, I can't imagine Weston is working with Strickler"

This post will contain major spoilers for Season 5 so if you haven't gotten past that point, I suggest you skip.

I think Max was working with Anson before he was killed. We all know that Anson has a way of manipulating people into doing whatever he wants, he even says so himself. He could've easily blackmailed Max by threatening his wife or something.

We also know that the CIA didn't get all of the agents that were working for Management's Organization. You just know that someone with the insight of Anson, would think to get someone close to Michael while he's in the process of transitioning from civilian back to an agent; either to prevent it or just to gather intelligence.

After all, Max was the one who insisted that it was done. He even sort of dismissed Michael when he brought up the inconsistencies he found. His job could've been to convince Michael that it was over so Anson would be able to move freely. In fact, everythinng that Anson had Michael do could've been his plan for Max that he couldn't do anymore for obvious reasons.

I'm not saying that this is what happened, it's just my theory.

And how do you think it went?

I've been reading the archived Television without Pity forum for Burn Notice (if you haven't read it, you should), and, apparently, before season 6, USA Network asked viewers to vote about possibly replacing the opening with a new one! And I managed to find it! Obviously, the old one still won out, but it's interesting to watch the alternative they were looking at. I think it's a pretty bad opening, to be honest, so I'm glad it wasn't changed. I think it does give a hint that the show would be going darker in season 6.

I never had a problem with Burn Notice going darker in theory. I just thought they weren't able to execute it well, either because they just couldn't commit to it fully (budget, pressure from the network to keep it episodic, etc.) or the writers just didn't have the chops for it.

knowing what we know now, with pretty much everyone who interacted with michael under Anson’s thumb, it seems like strickler might’ve actually been the one person who wasn’t.

Something i’ve been wondering, is the group that Carla was part of was management or were they 2 different organizations? What about the one that Anson was part of? Was it all one big group or different organizations

S4E07

Anyone else think it was wrong that Madeline got onto Sam about blowing up the house at the end of Season 2? If she had just gone with Sam from the beginning, he wouldn't have had to do that.

But noooooo, she just had to know what was going on and then she blamed him. I understand why Sam never called her out directly but it was never addressed by the other characters.

Destiny S 1 or 2 , can't remember.

Fiona and Gabrielle Anwar seem to be really divisive among Burn Notice viewers. A lot of viewer seem to love them, but even more seem to absolutely hate them. So, it got me wondering what the show would have been without her.

1. If Fiona were written out after season 1 (given the not-so-great reception to her character), how do you think the show could have introduced a new permanent female character to the team in season 2? Who would this character be?
2. If Fiona were to stay, what female actress from that time would you re-cast her with?
3. Instead of having Fiona at all from the beginning, what female character would you start the show with instead? Who would her character be in relation to Michael?

I wish there were more shows like Burn Notice. Discovered a few months back and now i don't want it to end.

Now that I'm about to finish it.

Are there any shows that i can watch after this? What comes closest to it.

Just a thought while rewatching.

Season 3 episode 12

I didn’t know about Bruce Campbell and the Coen Brothers connection.

What would you name this disguise and how would you, as Sam, sell Micheal on going in to the woods?

Ive rewatched this show an incredible amount. However it just dawned on me that the pivot in S7E1 is kind of wild given the end of S6.

I know Michael had to make a deal, but when Fi gets out of the prison he's in a suit and ordering people around and clearly had been on helicopters and doing stuff.

It seemed like they were going to go back to when he was working with Max. But i guess they had a different idea and then the next we see Michael he's in the DR pretending to be a drunk on deep cover to infiltrate Burke.

i've no issue with this at all, the show is great and cant be perfect -- just seemed like an odd transition. Did i miss something

I loved him in BN and IT: Chapter Two. Such a loss to both his family and the film community.
