BURN NOTICE: THE FALL OF SAM AXE
The prequel movie, set in late 2005, begins after a faction of Columbian rebels makes trouble for the locally stationed military platoon, with Lieutenant Commander Sam Axe (Bruce Campbell) being sent down to advise. As the mission unfolds, Sam begins to uncover the dark secrets of the area, learning the truth about sacrifice, deception, and ultimately what's worth fighting for. Directed by Jeffrey Donovan, the two-hour movie is written and executive produced by BURN NOTICE creator Matt Nix.
Coming in April on USA Network.
LAW & ORDER: CRIMINAL INTENT
Season ten features the long-anticipated return of Detectives Robert Goren (Vincent D'Onofrio) and Alex Eames (Kathryn Erbe) to the Major Case Squad. Terminated for insubordination a year ago, Detective Goren has been reunited with his long-time partner Alex Eames at the behest of the new Major Case Captain. In addition to plunging into colorful, dangerous mysteries, Goren has mandatory sessions with a brilliant police psychologist. In this final eight episode arc that will ultimately help Goren understand his tortured past and chart a course for a successful future. Storylines for this season include a beautiful female banker whose sole client was the Catholic Church; an adventuresome rogue who may be the country's best cyber-warrior; a woman who was blackmailing a wealthy, tabloid-fodder "bad boy." Rather than forensics or strict procedure, these murders will be solved in the style CI fans have come to know and love: Goren's Holmesian deduction of the deep psychology and byzantine motives for the crime. With the help of his friend and partner Eames, we'll be in for a season of twisty plots, uniquely New York worlds, clever deductions, and dazzling operatic interrogations that ultimately bring the guilty to justice.
Premieres Sunday, May 1 at 9/8c on USA Network.
IN PLAIN SIGHT
IN PLAIN SIGHT stars Mary McCormack as Mary Shannon, a U.S. Marshal working in the highly secretive branch of the witness protection program (WITSEC), who relocates Federal Witnesses, most of whom fall into three categories: career criminals, whistle-blowers or innocents who had the misfortune of witnessing a crime.

IN PLAIN SIGHT also stars Frederick Weller, Nichole Hiltz and Paul Ben-Victor.
