    An AWESOME Finale!! I believe this series to be one of the very best on television!! I enjoy the adventures, excitement, love interest, and also the humor.
    Michael Shanks was Fantastic as Victor! At first it appeared that Victor was a 'bad guy', which I bet Michael Shanks enjoyed portraying.
    Jeffrey Donovan is Amazing as Michael Westen. His gorgeous smile and incredible good looks are bonuses to a great story!!
    I am also thoroughly enjoying Bruce Campbell as Sam Axe. I first became a fan of Bruce's years ago when he starred in the TV show 'The Adventures of Bristol County, Jr.'. I believe he brings a lot to the show!
    I am looking forward to next season's new adventures.moreless

    I was a bit dissapointed with season's one finale , it didn't seem like a good ending , but this one was something special. Helicopters , boats , fast speed cars , C4 , home made bombs , snipers , shotguns ; this was a classic action masterpiece. Michael finally gets his freedom which can be a bit more dangerous than what he thinks. Fiona's wishes comes to true when she gets to kill Carla. Besides the main theme of the episode which was excellent and perfectly setted, I think Madeliene's side story was amazing too. It was a great season I am glad there will be a season 3 because this finale could have easily be the end of the series but looks we have much more Michael Westen to come.moreless

  • Season 2 raps up with a bang.

    This episode was just incredable. It felt like a high speed roler coaster ride that took a billion twists and turns for the better. The story arc for the past 7 episodes followed Michael looking for the person that tried to kill him by blowing up his loft. Michael eventually found out that that very person used to work for Carla and is now rebeling against her, the very thing Michael has been wanting to do since the start. Michael finds a common enemy with Victor and they ally to take down that enemey, Carla, who is under heavy watch by her bosses, 'Management.'

    The end finds Victor and Michael setting off to blackmail Carla when Victor is shot by a sniper. Carla is shot by Fiona and Michael is off to meet with Carla's boss, the man that burned him.

    This was a wonderful episode because it rapped up the amazing storyline in Season 2 and Michael finally meets the man who burned him. But now a new issue stands, since Michael is free, but at what cost? Off to Season 3.moreless

    The first half hour of this episode fell flat. I have to admit that, despite being such a big fan of B Note. But the second half kicked into full gear and we got some really great action. The finale of the first half of season 2 was intense, but this was just on a whole other level.

    Carla dying made me upset, as she has been such a great villain on the series, but this should open some new doors. I'm excited for Season 3 after seeing this, even if it is months away. I think we're in store for a completely revitalized series after what happened in the final moments.moreless

  • All in all, nothing too special here for a finale.

    Wow, I havent done a review on here for a long time now.

    Back to business though, for a regular episode it didnt disappoint, good episode and good story, with a small piece of the puzzle put in place.

    BUT, it wasnt a regular episode, it was the season finale, so IMO, it did disappoint, well me anyway. It didnt have anything special, nothing to keep the viewers hooked for next season(actually whats the deal with that, is it coming back, I would hope so) but since I really enjoy Burn Notice, im coming back regardless.

    I give the episode 7/10, because of my high expectations.moreless

    • (on the phone) Michael: Carla, not a good time. Carla: You think you're clever. Michael: Clever? Well, I tested well in school, but they say that doesn't mean... Carla: You're trying to save the man who tried to kill you. Victor and I have known each other for a long time. You have no idea who you're dealing with. Michael: You know, I know it's been a short time, but sometimes you meet someone and you just get that feeling. Carla: Enough. It's time you learned actions have consequences. Michael: Funny, I was thinking it was time for you to learn the same thing. Edit
    • Michael: Victor I sympathize with your situation but it's a little hard to trust someone when they've tried to kill you, four times. Victor: Four, that seems high.(Pauses) Oh come on, you're counting earlier with the chair! Michael: Yes. Edit
    • Victor: Wait a minute, you're going to help me? I get to be one of Michael Westen's clients? One of the desperate people to whom you lend your razor-sharp mind and fists of fury? Michael: Lucky you. Edit
