Has anyone checked out Burn Notice? You can catch the opening scene of the Pilot here.
The idea of a spy getting burned (aka fired) seemed really interesting at the start. Superspy Michael Westen has some good dialogue throughout the episodes (I love the paused fight sequence comments) but overall he's too cocky.
Every episode has him helping his mom with an errand like "the neighbor got scammed, get her money back" followed by some investigation and amusing investigation techniques. However, that's about all there is. The overall story-arc of his burn notice is given in tiny doses near the end of each episode with "Oooh someone's watching, Michael."
The show is nicely shot though with lots of Miami scenery and close-ups of women. So I don't know...should I keep watching? Apparently it just got renewed for a fourth season soooooo I won't have to worry about it getting cancelled....
