Well...that was a stupid season finale. I feel like nothing happened. I was hoping to see Anson get a bullet to the head.

[Henchmen21]

I missed the first ten minutes. Going to have to rewatch a the west coast airing for that. >_> CIA Team. Mike movin' on up?

Same here.

Dude relax, Nothing happened cause this was only the winter break. We still have the rest of the season next summer for Michael to put one between Anson's eyes.

[Wads]

Eric Roberts!

Ha, what a total waste of his appearance. I'm guessing someone saw him in The Expendables and said "Hey! We should have him here too!"

I'm glad they didn't go through with Michael burning people. He did it once (although not on purpose) with Jesse and that would have been pretty much character assassination if he did that. Honestly, I'm surprised they took it as far as him putting the chip in the computer and loading it. Seems odd to me how willing everyone was to give up in this episode too and even odder that Fiona and Sam wouldn't think about stuff like the explosives being tracked.

No, this was the season finale. Burn Notice's short break is during the fall. Next summer is Season 6.

[benjipwns]

Wasn't as great as last seasons finale battle at the hotel. Especially since they aired it with the Brennan/Larry penultimate episode and made it seem like a two-part finale. And it didn't have the hook of Michael being welcomed back into the contrasting snowy D.C.

Would have been fun if Michael refused to burn the others and there was no mole revealed in the group. Then Anson burned the CIA people anyway setting up Michael as having done it and Fi still turned herself in.

Who even expects the Fi in jail thing to last longer than the old LAPD detective who totally knows everything about Michael's antics "plot" from season three?

[Ventilaator]

Burn Notice finally broke it's tradition of ohmygodwhatthefuck season finales. This was kind of just a Burn Notice episode.

[Foliorum Viridum]

A bit underwhelmed here, too.

[Seraphis Cain]

Same. It was a pretty poor season finale, all things considered.

[Ezalc]

It was an underwhelming season finale but damn it if Anson isn't a great villain.

[Foliorum Viridum]

He is but I'm also bored of him now.

[Ezalc]

The one thing I'm bored of him is the whole one step ahead thing. Kind of wish there was something else they could do with him. I really enjoyed that one episode where he went with Micheal and asked questions as they did the operation.

[alba]

I agree it was a bit lackluster and I was accustomed to awesome crazy finales when it comes to BN. I sure hope they don't half ass it next season and get Fi out in like a few episodes but do something cool with it. Anson is great but yeah, he's getting kind of stale. It was entertaining but yeah, I felt it needed a bit more to it.

And so now, we wait.

[Foliorum Viridum]

The one thing I'm bored of him is the whole one step ahead thing. Kind of wish there was something else they could do with him. I really enjoyed that one episode where he went with Micheal and asked questions as they did the operation.

I don't know what they can do with him now. He has nothing over Michael so he's either going to get killed or caught.

Actually, he did fuck with the CIA so I suppose he potentially has something over him.

[ConfusingJazz]

So yeah, what is the over/under on Fi getting broken out of jail? Shit, she might be released in the first 10 minutes, with her prison story arc being told through a quick flashback.

[benjipwns]

I really enjoyed that one episode where he went with Micheal and asked questions as they did the operation.

As I said a few weeks ago, this was entirely how they should have done him from the start. He should have been brought in however it could be as somebody who could maybe help Michael but knew something and his questioning and timing was suspicious especially with Michael back in the good graces of the CIA blah blah blah and then as the onion peeled back we saw he was this mastermind behind everything as he's been done since his first appearance.

No more than three episodes I assume. Throw out the premiere since you get to establish Fi in jail, then you can do one more episode where Michael is focused on it but Sam and Jesse have a client, and then in the third episode you do another client and the plot to bring Fi back.

[Ventilaator]

How do you get Fiona out of jail in a manner that leaves her open to join on missions and not be constantly chased as a fugitive?

[ConfusingJazz]

Sam's got a buddy, aka this show's sonic screwdriver.

[Seraphis Cain]

Haha, exactly what I was about to say. :lol

[AlphaSnake]

Sam's got a buddy, aka this show's sonic screwdriver.

I think Michael will finally confide in Pierce and she'll get her bailed out, and have Anson killed.

[Enco]

Don't get the hate.

Loved the ep. The last 15 minutes were brilliant. Can't wait for the next eps.

[Escape Goat]

It was an underwhelming season finale but damn it if Anson isn't a great villain.

I thought he was hilarious to look at. Its as if they intentionally tried to create some kind of rat-human mutant as Michael's nemesis. Plus he was a little too "I've thought of everything so don't try to jump ahead to the season finale until I'm ready" for my taste.

[ReXXXSoprano]

Just finished watching it and I'm surprised that it didn't get dealt with. But this Fi in custody thing should be a short detour from the plot before they put a bullet in Anson. As a BN season finale it was a bit lacking though.

[lazybones18]

Just got done watching the finale

The way Sam said "I'm so sorry"....sounds like he intentionally let Fi go and faking that hit on the head

[Master Thespian]

I thought the same thing and was in turn disappointed that there was no OMFGWTF twist at the end.

[dead souls]

Agreed.

I'm thinking that's something that may come up next season.

[Shadow780]

Rebecca was hot :D

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

1.) I didn't mind the season finale; I was getting sick of the villain escalations and Anson is probably the series' most interesting villains, so I'm glad they kept them.
2.) Looking up the actress that plays Beatriz: her entire acting career currently involves Burn Notice; bonus points for some of those glamour shots on IMDB; wowzers

[bodyboarder]

It could have been better. Bring on the next season.

[Maffis]

I was like "is that it?".

But still, it was a pretty good episode. Damn Eric Roberts looks so much like Jim Cazaviel it isn't even funny.

[Troidal]

It wasn't that great, but so has the recent story arc. I don't mind a tough villain, but I would prefer if it played out more like a tug-o-war, where Michael wins once, then maybe Anson wins the next round. So far, Micheal & co. is just getting their ass handed to them, and it's not so fun to watch really.

[adelante]

Just looked her up myself...ayeyaiyai :O

Pretty decent finale, bit of a cheesy ending but I like where things are heading. And if the next season has more Kristanna Loken, all the better!

[cartoon_soldier]

I didn't really like Loken.

Finale was fine by me, but next season should concentrate on the complete dismantling of the burn notice network.

Will be interesting to see where the season begins.

[The Dutch Slayer]

It will return:

Burn Notice, June 14 at 9pm

[Error Macro]

Burn Notice.

June 14th.

uh oh


/internetconspiracies

[RangersFan]

anyone else give up on this show. I absolutely loved it at one point, but by the time I got to season 4 I found myself having more and more trouble forcing myself to watch the eps on my dvr, and eventually just stopped altogether.

[strafer]

USA’s Burn Notice is about to enter its sixth season, and the show is letting fans vote for the new opening credits. I’ve felt that it’s long overdue to remove Fiona’s “Should we shoot them?” since she’s talking in an Irish accent she hasn’t used since the series premiere. Hit the jump for a special message from star Jeffrey Donovan, and to find out how you can vote for the new opening credits. The sixth season of Burn Notice premieres on USA on Thursday, June 14th at 9/8c. Fans can click over to Facebook or BurnNoticeFanVote.com to vote for their favorite opening, and then they can defend their choice on Twitter by adding the hashtag #BNFanVote.

Holy shit at the new opening hahahaha.

Even the updated current version is pretty bad.

Direct link to watch them.

[The Big Rig]

the new credits are pretty bad. I prefer the updated one.

[fallengorn]

That new opening. Yikes.

They can get better results if they opened a contest.

[hiro4]

The new opening is bad. BAAAD.
It is like they did it on purpose.

[Tamanon]

The new opening is horrible. The updated one is okay, but I think Jesse needs a better tagline. Although at least he's in the credits finally!

[Stasis]

I've started to lose interest in the show, but part of me is still happy it's back for another season. Maybe it will redeem itself and go back to being awesome.

[Escape Goat]

Its shoestring budget makes it feel like I'm watching the same show over and over. But I can't help not watch. I love Maddie.

[TehOh]

Wow, that new opening. That's just amazingly bad.

[Foliorum Viridum]

LOL at the new opening.

Fan made right? Not actually a real option? They can't think that could possibly be good enough?!?

Jesus christ.

[AlphaSnake]

Wow the new one is lame. It can work, they just need to cut the sappy and stupid shit out of the way, such as the character names and mini-bios.

[Seraphis Cain]

It's like someone at USA thought "You know what the world needs LESS of? Jeffrey Donovan narrating stuff".

[TheSeks]

It's like someone at USA thought "You know what the world needs LESS of? Jeffrey Donovan narrating stuff".

Seriously. And the "updated opening" bits are jarring. :/

Where's the "Just dub over Finoa's Irish accent line and keep the old opening" bit? It's classic!

"My name is Micheal Westen. I used to be a spy until..."

Geez, I can recite the opening by memory. :/

Edit: Okay, the new opening is less jarring in terms of video output. Slap Micheal's opening lines in and we'd be golden I guess but I'd still rather keep the original opening, Finoa's Irish Accent and all. :|

[Foliorum Viridum]

The opening now is great because A) it tells a nice story, B) it's a great theme, C) it's "light" and "fluffy" like the show and D) after five seasons why just not keep it because it's so established?

Changing it for no good reason.

But if the show still rocks who really cares.

[Error Macro]

What is this called again, a Morton's Fork? Both choices are bad. But the new one is definitely the worst.

The new opening is horrible. The updated one is okay, but I think Jesse needs a better tagline.

Yes, I agree. His new line should be: "I have to go now. My planet needs me."
