In the second season there will be more and more new events. As Michael's new assistant asks for a Tunisian counterfeit, Sam asks him to help a woman she says is being tracked by a drug dealer and asks his mother to join her when she sees the therapist. On the other hand, Michael is trying to help a man who lost the money owed to lend the sharks to the swindler, and blackmail him by discovering a Pakistani spy for information about his new job. Meanwhile, Michael Fei's mother asks about their disintegration.
Between the glamorous Miami setting, the high-tech capering and the dry humor, Burn Notice made for fine summer escapism: gripping but ultimately undemanding.
Burn Notice resumes its second season like a sarcastic friend whose absences may not be lamented but whose reappearances are always surprisingly well met.
The series was clicking so well by the end of last season that the idea of changing the format seemed odd. But despite the introduction of Carla, season two "Burn Notice" is pretty much the same as season one.
