Bruce Campbell is Sam Axe. Sam Axe is Bruce Campbell

Bruce Campbell is Sam Axe.

Sam Axe is Bruce Campbell.

For that reason alone, I would watch Burn Notice.

It was a bonus that I loved the pilot as well.

Pilot Episode

Michael Westen (Jeffrey Donovan) doesn’t really work for the CIA, but for all intents and purposes Westen is a spy.

He holds two black belts; is proficient with guns; and has been disavowed by the U.S. Government.

A daring escape and bullet wound later,  Westen wakes up in his old stomping grounds of Miami, Florida and tries to put his life back together with the convenient help of his ex-girlfriend Fiona Glenanne (Gabrielle Anwar) and retired CIA Agent Sam Axe (Bruce Campbell of Evil Dead, Army of Darkness, and Spider-Man fame).

Westen then realizes that he needs income to find out why he was given a “burn notice” (disavowed) and ends up using his skills as an undercover operative to help those in need.
