God bless the USA Network!
Sources confirm that the NBC-owned cabler has renewed two of TV’s most entertaining series, Burn Notice and Psych, for a third and fourth season respectively. Both shows received orders for 16 episodes.
BN and Psych are scheduled to kick off the second half of their current seasons in January (although Psych will air a special Christmas-themed hour on Nov. 28). The newly greenlit seasons would likely follow in summer ‘09.

Well I’m thrilled. These shows are awesome. The acting is surprisingly goos and the premises allow the stories to never becoming boring. And best of all they are consistant, I can never remember episodes that I don’t like, from either of these shows. They’ll never become mainstream or very popular, but me and my firends love them.

I’m extremely happy to hear this news. Psych and Burn Notice are two of my favorite shows on TV right now. So I’m very glad that they both got renewed for new seasons next year!
Awesome!! Love James Rodan and Dule Hill–incredible casting and roles together on Psych.
I’m so “Psych”ed the USA Network didn’t “Burn” it’s loyal viewers, and hopefully both these shows will get more “Notice” in their upcoming seasons!!
Yay. Psych is one of my favourite shows, so glad it got a re-new. It totally deserves it, it’s a great spin on all the other crime shows on TV at the moment.
Woo Hoo!! Great news about 2 of my must-see shows.
I love “Psych”!! it has some of the funniest, quickest dialogue on T.V. and not enough people know that.
Any news on Monk?
I love both these shows. I have to honest thought, that “Psych” has gone a little too silly for me. Shawn and Gus are my favorite team, but I hope they reign in the goofiness just a bit next season.
“Burn Notice” is one of the best shows on the air, and Jeffrey Donovan totally rocks.
i LOOOOOOOOOVE psych!!!!….thought i was the only one cause let’s face it, it’s probably the silliest show on tv.
Great news about Psych, but what about Monk?
Yay Psych!
But what’s the status on Monk?
PINEAPPLE and Yogurt for all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok now cancel monk already
Great news. Two very fun shows.
SO HAPPY to hear my fave “boys” (Sean & Gus and Michael & Sam) will be back in January!! USA is getting to be THE NETWORK to watch: with Psych, Burn Notice, Monk (I hope my fave obsessive detective will be back too) and my other ALL-TIME FAVE: Robert Goren on Law&Order: Criminal Intent!!
I was trying to come up with a clever 80s or Judd Nelson reference but all I could come up with was, “Alright! Awesome news!”
I love Psych!
I. Love. Psych!
I used to be a fan of MacGuyver back in the 80’s, and I’ve felt a void in my life since then. Since the first episode of Burn Notice, I knew two things, a) This was better than MacGuyver, and b) it would probably be canceled by the end of the first season. I am happy to be wrong one the one account. As for Psych…I got tried not to like it. I was bored one night, and…it’s now one of my all time favorites. It’s good to know that with times the way they are these actors have some job security.
Thank goodness. I will promise this is my last drumming of this drum, but if only NBC decided to be devious and pick up Moonlight and pair it with Burn Notice as a summer series, imagine the dreamy two hours we would have on Thursday nights between Mick and Michael, the fun deviousness of Joseph and Fi, the romance of Mick/Beth and Michael/Fi, and the humor of Sam and the tech guy from Moonlight. Sigh.
YAY FOR PSYCH. This show does not get enough recognition. It’s my favorite show on TV (besides Lost). Glad to hear about the Christmas special, too! Didn’t know about until I saw it here.
Go USA Network. They get a cookie.
FANTASTIC!!! Burn Notice and Psych are two of the best shows on TV. Best news all day.
I am so glad to see so many “Psych” fans. It seems it’s only me and my husband who watch the show here in SA, TX. And Roday is from here, too. I’m am so excited about the Christmas special!!!! Can’t wait till November 28th!!!! Evelyn
YAAYY!! I LOVE BURN NOTICE AND REALLY LOVE JEFFREY DONOVAN!I just hope USA pays him more considering he is in a movie by Clint Eastwood that is ALREADY GETTING OSCAR BUZZ!
OMG YES! thank you USA! You rock!
I love BOTH psych and Burn Notice, so happy to see that these awesome shows are getting their recognition 
Love both of these shows. So glad to hear they’ve been renewed. Thanks for the good news, Mike!
