The USA network has ordered two cast contingent pilots. First, To Love And Die In L.A. stars Shiri Appleby (Roswell, Six Degrees) as a young woman with abandonment issues. She convinces herself that the solution to her problems is tracking down the father she never knew. Things take a drastic turn when she finds him, only to discover that he is a hit-man. It does give her some clues about her relationship issues, and may open up the door to a new career. Burn Notice takes us inside the world of a fired spy. Jeffrey Donovan (Touching Evil, Monk) stars as Michael Weston. While on a mission, Michael gets the news that he has been fired, a "burn notice", and is now untouchable. Having no idea who or what caused this, he sets out to find the truth. With no job, and none of his normal contacts at his disposal, he takes work helping those that the system can't, or won't, to fund his personal investigation. It's very one man A-Team sounding.

I liked Touching Evil and always wondered if there would be another season of it, I guess not. Sounds interesting.

What in heaven's name is a "cast contingent pilot?"
DOn't they already HAVE a cast??
Jeffrey Donovan's a great actor - was in Boston for the Shakespeare festival last year. TOUCHING EVIL was canceled because I watched it. No other reason. Same as KIDNAPPED and, I suspect THE NINE, which is the without-a-doubt best new series this year.

Brun Notice almost sounds like a revamp of the Equalizer. Instead of being retired he is fired and helping people.
