What are some of the reasons you watch Burn Notice?

I am not new to the USA Boards but I am new to the Burn Notice forum. I loved the series premier and I loved the second episode. I cannot wait to find out what is in store for more. Mike is, well the man is fine! LOL!

*waves* I am new. I'm a fan of Jeffrey Donovan, that's why I tuned in initially, loved Touching Evil! been a fan of a few other USA shows(4400, Psych, StarterWife) but it wasn't til Burn Notice I felt compelled to join. . I love the sarcasm and snark! and I'm super curious to the "who and why" of Burn Notice 
so "Hi" to whomever pops in.
so "Hi" to whomever pops in.

I started watching after I saw the ads for the show during "The Starter Wife". I enjoyed Jeffrey Donovan on Crossing Jordan; he's very good at playing the guy you love to hate (as in Hitch). I'm really enjoying this show and hope it sticks around for a long time.

*waves at shaun* I too am from the CBS Jericho boards. I saw the promo for this show and had to check it out, mainly cause it looked like something new and fresh. The fact that Bruce Campbell and Jeffrey Donovan are on this show is just gravy.
This is a great show, long may it continue. (Mainly cause, should it not, I shudder to think what I may be inclined to mail in large quantities to the USA network in the near future! Writers and producers, you may want to take note...

I generally only write into technical bulletin boards about issues I'm having with my computer system. I loved the commercials to Burn Notice. I watched the 1st two episodes a couple of times. This is a great summer watch. Can't wait to find out more about his crazy family. Sharon Gless as the Mom is a great pick. The brother will probably be as screwy as the rest of the family.

Hello, I just joined the USA Network Forums and the Burn Notice board.
Tell you the trush I am not a huge fan of forums or message boards but after watching the Burn Notice I really wanted to join the others who enjoys the show as mush as I do and also to read the comments of other fans.
I live in New York, NY and last week I was in Seattle in my hotel room channel surfing to find something worth watching then I found the new Burn Notice on USA Network. It's been a long while since I felt really excited about a new show. Of course Monk has been my favorite since the start becasue of Tony Shalhoub and after that I really got hooked on the Psych. Now I have my top three favorite TV shows on one channel. How convenient is that?
Burn Notice is a really cool show and I hope the USA Network will continue with the series. Miami is a great place to film but I know it's not always as sunny as on the show. Still it feels good to see the sun, beach and the ocean even on TV. It's hard to find shows worth watching on the TV lately even with hundreds of channels. Monk, Psych and the Burn Notice are the only three shows that I don't mind sitting through commercials. The rest of the shows I watch all go in to the DVR so I can skip the commercial at a later watching.
Thanks again for a new and exciting show!
Nick O.

I'm not new to the boards either, but of course I am new to Burn Notice. I enjoy the show, though I do feel that it has some flaws. I watch the show because I love shows dealing with crime, drama, comedy, and/or secret agents and Burn Notice has a fantastic mix of all of those elements. Other USA shows I like are Nashville Star, Law and Order SVU and CI, Monday Night Raw, Monk and Psych. I look forward to talking to ya'll around the board

Thanks for the welcome Bubba, and hi to all. I'm new to the b boards here, and pretty new to the USA Network in general. Most of my TV watching consisted of Scifi channel, until they ended Stargate SG-1, and are on break from my fav other shows for the summer. I'm pretty new to b board chat as well, so please bare with me. 
I jumped over to the USA Network to watch The Starter Wife, then got hooked on Monk and Psych. Also love Law and Order. But Burn Notice is Awesome. I've always enjoyed watching Bruce C. in pretty much everything I've seen him in. The rest of the cast is great too, I've just not seen them in many things. I've not seen much of Jeffrey D. either, but now that I have, I'm a major fan.
Jeffrey D. is perfect for the part of Michael, and the rest of the cast are fantastic as well. They are so well suited to the characters they are playing. I can really connect to Madeline (Sharon), as the character is exactly like one of my close family members. So close that it's scary. Yikes!
Also, I must admit, that Jeffrey is just hot, hot, hot! Wow....what a handsome man. Can't wait for the ep with him in his boxers. jk...sort of.... He does such a wonderful job of having that stern and serious face, but when he smiles(drool), he's just gorgeous.
Anyway, I really hope the show runs for a long time. Every time it airs, I have to drop what I'm doing and watch, no matter what time it's on. One of the best new shows that I've seen in a long time.
Nice to meet you all, and I look forward to getting to know you.

May this show have a very long and happy life !!!!!!!!

Great job bringing Jericho back! I am watching the re-runs
on Friday nights on CBS. If nuts brought Jericho back,
think YOGURT for Burn Notice. That should make the
USA Network think twice about cancelling the show. Can
you imagine non-refrigerated yogurt after a few days,
eewwww...
Love Burn Notice, Love Jeffrey Donovan, Love Bruce
Campbell, Love Sharon Gless!

HAHA You think they would have gone with filet mignon or crystal....LOL I guess yogurt is better than flaming bags of dog poo.
But hey, welcome! I hope you are enjoying Jericho, stop by the Jericho boards any time: http://jerichoboard....ag=CBSMBJericho If you are new to Jericho and want to see the first half of the season you can watch it on cbs' innertube: http://www.cbs.com/p...icho/videos.php its free! You gotta love the cheese factor too!
As far as the nuts, they were actually more of a tool to get attention and media coverage, and also a good rallying cry. And it was something that could be easily donated so they wouldn't go to waste. Most of the campaign was based on polite, personal letters, postcards, emails, feedback and phone calls to the network. Heck we even sent Nina Tassler's assistant Lori, flowers and some one sent her a gift certificate as a way to say thanks for taking all our calls and being so cheerful and polite.
Burn Notice is great! Action, adventure, comedy, intrigue, a little romantic under current... Another show with a spot on cast, and some fresh tight writing. And believe me I have already started giving USA feedback!
Post on!

Hi, everyone! I've watched BN since its first week and fell in love with the show immediately. It hasn't been since Alias premiered that I've loved a show so much. The characters, actors, writing, location, humor, action...what's not to love??? Am hoping so much the show is picked up for another season and was really happy to find this forum!!!
