Critic Reviews

Gloria Goodale

Brisk and witty, this is a good showcase for Donovan's super-tough-guy-with-a-heart-of-gold persona. Read full review

Robert Lloyd

I'll take Jeffrey Donovan as Michael Westen in USA's delightful new action comedy Burn Notice. Read full review

Robert Lloyd

The dialogue is always to the point, yet it gives even the bit players enough room to create something memorable. Read full review

Alessandra Stanley

Mr. Donovan is likeably lighthearted and cool as a smart-mouthed loner; his character is a watered-down version of the kind of wiseguy once played by Michael Keaton. Read full review

Brian Lowry

Graced with a sly voiceover and strong supporting characters, it's the kind of breezy romp that dovetails nicely with [USA's] most popular fare and which manages to look more effortless than it surely is. Read full review

Robert Bianco

The goal is little more than light, disposable summer entertainment — and the show may even get there, if it can strip away some of its more annoying drags. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Matt Roush

The pilot is neither thrilling nor funny enough to earn notice. Read full review

In my opinion, the 2nd greatest USA original show behind Monk. People are complaining about, the characters, being perfect. But im sure most people would to when they spent more, than half of their life doing that proffesion.

The best show ever. For those who say that the stunts or inventions are fake or unbelievable: THEY ARE VERY POSSIBLE. This show is not Swordfish. I am very critic about other films that show impossible gadgets. 99% of the improvised gadgets, techniques are very realistic, and it is not me The best show ever.

This is probably my favorite tv series of all time.. You know one of those shows you love but don't exactly know why? This is it. Great cast, interesting story almost every show, and it never fails to entertain. I still go back and watch previous episodes..
