The Fall of Sam Axe episodes (1)

1 The Fall of Sam Axe
7/26/11
Season-only
Before Sam Axe teamed up with Michael and Fiona, he was Commander Axe, U.S. Navy SEAL. The Fall of Sam Axe tells the story of how Sam went from respected Naval Commander to the man of mystery we've come to know on Burn Notice. On what will turn out to be Sam's last military mission, he is sent to the jungles of Colombia to investigate claims of a vicious terrorist organization known only as the "Espada Ariente" (Flaming Sword). His mission: to determine whether U.S. military aid is necessary to deal with the threat. But when he arrives, things are more complicated than he'd imagined. He receives word that the rebels have targeted a small civilian clinic deep in the jungle. Sam must now save the clinic's doctors and patients from certain death. However, nothing is as it seems and the Espada Ardiente may not be the biggest threat Sam Axe faces.

Michael played the same guy every time he went incogito with the bad guys... cocky, squint-y; only ever talking with his jaw thrust forward and mouth barely open, kinda slurred and muttered like when someone is pretending to be tough. Annoying! Plot seems well thought out but needed a better male lead to pull it off - ruined it for me!

Two more episodes left for this amazing show. I just wanted to say farewell to this amazing show. It was wonderful. Oh to anyone wondering the last two episodes air on USA on the 5th and 12th. That means Google won't release them until the 6th and 13th.

I enjoy this series enough to have purchased season 7 on my Android. Some of the episodes have a lot of holes in them, but it's a solid enough series that it's easy to forgive. The show is really a great combination of intrigue, drama, action, light-hearted fun and acceptable romance. It's the best TV series I've ever watched. Highly recommended.
