Burn(ing) Notice

OK, this just HAD to be said!

WHY can't Burn Notice be a weekly show throughout the year???? I mean seriously, a couple of shows in the winter, then back to waiting. A couple of shows in the summer, then back to waiting. WHY? Seriously, who's in charge of this programming schedule? Are you insane? Seriously.

This show is great. It's about a spy (Jeffrey Donvan) who got burned. He's worked loyally and successfully for our country until being burned. Now, with his identity taken from him, he's stuck in Miami trying to find out who burned him while not getting himself killed. And he balances his own problems with helping desperate people solve some really unusual, and usually unsolvable problems in a way that only a spy with a repertoire of awesome knowledge and experience can. The supporting cast (including Gabrielle Anwar, Bruce Campbell, and Sharon Gless) are all awesome! And this past week was yet ANOTHER SEASON FINALE! Come on! It just started! So now we have to wait 4 months before seeing another new show? I want more NOW! I am (along with a lot of other people) suffering some severe withdrawal (in case you couldn't tell)!

Meanwhile, every time I turn on the TV I can't avoid seeing this show called House. House? Really? A show about a rude, incompetent, drug addicted doctor, who consistently misdiagnoses his patients to the point of death, before accidentally stumbling upon the real problem and way to save said patient. Yeah. That's the doc I'd want. NOT.

Here's a thought. Replace every House show with a Burn Notice. Maybe it's just me, but I would WAY rather watch an exciting, action/adventure show about a good guy helping out the underdog, rather than a nasty, drug addict doctor nearly killing every patient. We are the viewers, shouldn't we have a say in the programming?

And in case you've been off world and are unfamiliar with the show, here's a link: Burn Notice

Note to the programming powers that be on USA: Give us more Burn Notice. And give us more NEW Burn Notice!
