Westen is aided and abetted by three friends linked to his previous business. Fiona Glenanne (Gabrielle Anwar) covers his back while he’s out in the streets. Madeline Westen (Sharon Gless) is his mother. And Sam Axe (Bruce Campbell) serves as – well, comic relief.
As yet, the series only appears to have five episodes lined up. It’s not a strong showing, but given that some of the recent new fall shows and spring replacement shows haven’t even lasted that long, Burn Notice will have a chance to build up an audience. Since the USA network has delivered a hit like Monk and a fan-favorite newbie like Psych, there’s a good chance the series will have another shot at a later date for more episodes.
The series was created by Matt Nix, who is producing for the first time on this series. Jeffrey Donovan previously starred in Touching Evil.
