The new MacGyver…
By fred | June 30, 2007
(S01E01) Ok so I’ll be honest with you, when I watched the pilot of this new show, I didn’t know anything about it but its title, Burn Notice, and that’s it. So I went into it completely open-minded, just hoping to enjoy the hour I was gonna spend watching it.
An I have to say, it started pretty good. Sure, a spy getting abandoned by his people, finding himself on its own, alone the bad guys who now wants to kill him isn’t very new. But, it was well made, there was a good photo, good acting, and the use of the voice-over was actually an interesting touch on how the story was being told.
But then, the show slowly turned into what it will eventually be. So our spy got himself some PI work to do, using his old relations and knowledge to be successful in everything he’s starting, with never one thing that fails or go wrong.
Right now, it’s starting to be a bit more cliché, doesn’t it?
It will only gets worst. Because what could have been interesting is fading away, as you see that he won’t be a spy going all over the world, but just yet another spy staying in Miami.
It get worst in so many ways by the end of the episode, not only did I hated the show already but I wanted to punch my TV in the face for such a lame time. Read the review of “The new MacGyver…” »
