“You know spies, a bunch of bee-itchy little girls”

Anticipating being bored off my gourd in Texas. I downloaded the final seasons of Burn Notice. I started rewatching it when I got my cold/flu and had to stay home from work. Man, I binge watched it. it is such a fun TV series. I never caught it when it came out season by season.

It got so little recognition no? I never heard of The show.

Gabriela Anwat was shockingly hot for the most part.

Crap. Three more days in Texas and I’m done.

I’ll go quail Hunting some maybe. My mom is on the mend.

I’m on S7. Really like it. Like MacGyver for grownups.

And yeah Gabrielle Anwar aged well. I remember her from For Love or Money with Michael J. Fox, and then Scent of a Woman...

IIRC, it was a USA Network show, so I imagine it got pretty good viewership numbers amongst people who enjoy that type of show. We watched a good many of them, but were kind of hit and miss overall. Fun, smart show for sure... good chemistry amonst the principal characters.

With Jeffrey Donovan, Bruce Campbell, and Sharon Gless as Michael's mom... how could it not be fun?

It was on free to air here. Always found it entertaining.

She's perfect. Some of us don't like large women and obnoxiously huge, usually fake breasts.

I used to watch it years ago when it was current/new. It was entertaining. Gabriel Anwar could be attractive. Bruce Campbell is also generally entertaining.

I didn't finish watching as I cut the cord and haven't picked it back up, but it was still pretty good when I stopped.

We used to air the reruns on ION television when I worked there. I even wrote some scripts for the actors. For some reason Jeffrey Donovan & Gabrielle didn't want to be on set together...Must have been something personal, but I never looked into it.

Anyway, fun show!

I wouldn't say perfect, her ribs are hanging out there.

Back in the day, Cindy & I were fans...loved her "can I shoot him?" line. Also, as mentioned earlier, Sharon Gless as "mom" was just fantastic. Remember one bit...Sharon as "interviewing" a guy they were holding captive...offered him a cigarette. "It's not as if you have to worry about cancer..."

I thought she was much more attractive prior to the plastic surgery. The lip filler was just too much.

Here she is in a Tom Petty video when she was 21. She plays Eddie's girlfriend. Interesting cast in the video. Johhny Depp is Eddie plus Faye Dunaway, Matt LeBlanc & Chynna Phillips

Perfect may be a stretch, but certainly better than a muffin topped millennial.

I think I'd be more likely to pick Milla J over Gabriel A, but they are both attractive women.

Interesting. I'm guessing that was when MTV was still showing videos.

Multipass!

Maybe it is just those photos, but she is a bit too thin to me. Not unattractively thin like a runway model.

Halle Berry and the main female characters on Eureka, Jo Lupo and Allison Blake, Catherine Bell - all are thin, but still have some meat on their bones.

That said, I have only seen a few episodes of the show and never really got into it.

The last season with that evil spy played by the hot ass Israeli actress was pretty awesome.

Total wholesome beauty
