I clearly need to re-watch this show. I binged it at such an alarming rate that many significant details seem to have slipped by me.

Now I miss Burn Notice.

I don't know. Titus is amazing. Hopefully he will grow on you as you continue watching.

They've really made my life so much easier. The biggest fights I had with my parents was when I was packing for international flights, my suitcase was 15 pounds over the weight limit and it turned out I had stashed 4 hardcovers at the bottom in an effort to sneak them on to the plane with me.
