Burn Notice Season 3
- Director:
- Starring:
- Details:
Burn Notice stars Jeffrey Donovan (Changeling) as Michael Westen, everyone's favorite blacklisted spy. Stranded in sun-soaked Miami, he continues to use the only tools he has at his disposal: his wits, his charm, his special ops training, and his “friends”--Fiona (Gabrielle Anwar), a beautiful ex-IRA operative who also happens to be Michael's ex-girlfriend, Sam (Bruce Campbell), a washed-up military intelligence contact who works as Michael's sidekick, and his mother (Emmy Award winner Sharon Gless), who Michael has spent most of his adult life trying to avoid.
This season opens with Michael emerging from the water, completely free from interference by the organization that burned him, but now under investigation by the police. Michael faces a new foe in Miami Police Detective Michelle Paxson (recurring guest star Moon Bloodgood, Terminator: Salvation), who becomes obsessed with uncovering the truth about Michael. Also in the upcoming season we see Michael and team help a kidnapped child, take on Latin American thugs and deal with some familiar faces while Michael works to get back into the CIA. Ben Shenkman (Grey's Anatomy) also recurs as Stickler, a freelance spy broker who makes a living by contracting current and former spies to do work on the side. This season we also see the return of some of the most popular characters from the first two seasons including Jay Karnes as weapons dealer Brennen, and Seth Peterson as Michael's brother, Nate.
