That reminds me that I need to watch Burn Notice sometime soon. At least I need to find out when DH's cousin (same name as my son) is in the show. He apparently is in at least a couple episodes as an Irish gangster. I guess they film in Miami. I really know nothing about it. I'm guessing his mother will call me when they air, but I should watch in advance so I'll know something about it.
Don't kill anyone if you don't have to. We're here to make a deal.

It's a cute show. A bit formulaic, but I enjoy it. Mostly for the Bruce Campbell, if I'm honest.

Since it is in season 3, do I need to do anything more than read their website a bit and maybe watch a couple shows to see what is happening?
It is always fun to see the local landmarks, and seeing Robbie will be a required family thing. I only recently heard about him being cast, so I don't even know if he has filmed yet.

Burn Notice is my "I'm really bored" show. And yes, terribly formulaic. I got excited during the season finale where Michael drives into the truck, and I thought the formula was about to be shaken up, and then immediately no joy.

Laura, no deep research is required but the last few episodes of last season are worth a watch.
The premise is set up in the opening credit sequence, so you won't be mystified by anything that happens.

I just started watching a month or two ago and it's decent fluffy fun. And no, there's really no learning curve to it.

Snerk. If that were true, I'd have ground to a walt years ago.

“Not dead yet!”
Anyone who's jonesin' for some Mad Men before the S3 premiere, iTunes has added a free download of the Top 10 moments of the first two seasons. They could have easily done the Top 20-- I was shocked that Duck letting his dog out onto the street didn't make the list.

I really, really enjoy In Plain Sight. Except for being a little sad that Marshall's love will remain unrequited, I like every little character quirk.
The stories, while sometimes compelling...the special forces guy caught in the building collapse and the hardcore florist leap immediately to mind...the lead characters are what keep bringing me back.
It was nice to see Martin Landau continuing to bring it this week and Marshall's tenderhearted response to him. "It's more like Odysseus..." His dialog is awesome.
Also, lots of big emotional breakthroughs this season. Loving it.
