‘Burn Notice’ amply fills the fun void on TV this summer

Somewhere along the line, summer television forgot the true meaning of fun.

A short, simplistic, even childish word, but important. There’s a fun deficit going on in TV on these sunny days.

Plenty of people would vehemently disagree. Why, we’re a stone’s
throw away from fun on any given night. “America’s Got Talent” or “The
Next Best Thing” or any reality competition that a coma patient with
eyes half open can keep up with — if that’s not fun, what is it?

Wallpaper masquerading as primetime programming. Background noise.
