Burn Notice - Renewed for 7th Season

burn notice is coming back to usa. just not all the way back.

the network picked up 13 episodes for the show's seventh season, which will bring the veteran spy
drama to 100 episodes. "burn notice is like a fine wine that gets better with age," said usa network co-
presidents chris mccumber and jeff wachtel. "delivering high-octane action, gripping drama and nearly
7 million viewers for the mid-season finale, this veteran series is a proven staple of our portfolio."

and like a fine wine, burn notice has gotten more expensive as it ages, too - like all tv shows. so it's
not surprising usa is reducing its order a bit, despite the drama's earthy vintage bouquet. burn notice
has enjoyed 18-episode seasons in recent years, which is very rare for a cable drama and an indication
of its success. a 13-hour order is more the norm.

still, this made us wonder if this could be burn notice's final season. a usa spokesperson says
there's "no expectation" this will be the last round. the second half of the series sixth season returns on
thursday.

i wish theyd take some of that budget and buy real blanks and squibs instead of using that shitty cgi fx for
gunfire

good to know least one of my favorite shows is not getting the ax for a while. too many good shows
are killed too early. never get a chance to gain an committed audience.

it could do with being a little more like strike back, but for an ameican show you really cant ask for
much more. hope they finish it soon thought cause this marry go round of the story is starting to
get a tad bit old.

and with that ending to season 6 expect 7 more season of the same thing

how the crap does this show keep getting renewed? other than bc all the actors suck and the writing is so
utterly formulaic... like every damn ep follows the same pattern. why make new episodes when they could
just rerun old ones?

it keeps getting renewed because its a good show. your formula criticism is fair, but at the same
time theres nothing wrong with a "procedural". house and lie to me were both great procedurals. that
doesnt automatically make a show bleh. besides pretty much all usa shows are like a good summer
"beach novel" incredibly entertaining but not a lot beyond that (with maybe the exception of suits).
and there is nothing wrong with that. its never going to be nor was it ever meant to be a strike
back or spooks.

additionally, i dont think bc is doing a better job than anyone else... i think youre just making an
exception for him because you like the other work on his resume. i think they are all putting on
performances at about the same level - which is to say, nothing amazing, but its decent, and its how
ive grown to know the characters so anything more indepth at this point would likely turn me off.
save it for a reboot after the shows over haha.

the one thing i will say is that they do need to wrap it up before it washes out. i cant see it
being viable beyond another 2 -3 seasons as much as it pains me to say it :-(
