Thursday Must Watch: USA’s BURN NOTICE / SUITS combo!
USA’s summer of fun continues tonight with the premieres of BURN NOTICE and SUITS.
The Season 6 premiere of BURN NOTICE picks up right where the finale left off – Michael finds out that Fiona has turned herself in, and he is not happy about it. In fact, he goes a little crazy about it, as one would expect! What plays out through the action packed hour is Sam and Michael working together to do whatever possible to get our girl out of the pokey. Add Jesse and Madeline into the mix, a lot of shots fired and explosions later, and this season is already shaping up to be one of the most exciting and nonstop full of action so far! Check it out at 9/8c!
At 10/9c (and running to 11:05/10:05c), season 2 of SUITS kicks off in a major way, also opening up very shortly after where we left S1 – with Jessica maybe knowing about the secret that Harvey and Mike (and Donna…and Rachel…) have been keeping about how Mike didn’t actually go to Harvard Law School. What plays out is an episode that felt like a sharply written movie where Harvey and Jessica are forced to work together even as the wheels seem to be falling off of their relationship, now that name partner Hardman is back in the picture. Mike, meanwhile deals with all kinds of issues – his troubles with Jenny, and Rachel, and the book clerk whose idea was maybe stolen and printed as someone else’s work. The episode was great, and I didn’t want to see it end. Far be it from me to proclaim no sophomore slump based only on the premiere, but so far, so good!
We didn’t get to see much of the Mike/Jessica pairing in the first season. They work well opposite each other. This should be a fun season despite the war.
