Critic's Help guide to Thursday TV: Your Final Burn, a residential area Classic, and much more!

Jeffrey Donovan, Kristanna Loken Who's getting burned within the eventful season finale of USA Network's Burn Notice (10/9c)? Arch-villain Anson (Jere Burns), who it is known is attempting to rebuild the business that burned Michael to begin with? Maybe Agent Pearce (Lauren Stamile), Michael's CIA handler? Anson's latest plan to keep Michael (Jeffrey Donovan) under his sadistic thumb would be to pressure our hero to sabotage his boss's career, throughout a mission by which she puts him responsible for his first team (including cult familiars Dean Cain and Kristanna Loken). Michael's jeopardizing everything for that defiant and combative passion for his existence Fiona (Gabrielle Anwar), to help keep her from likely to jail like a blackmail pawn. "There's no line [I will not mix] if this involves you," he declares, but as Michael tries can provide relief for everybody, someone's certain to spend the money for cost. Should alllow for a fascinating sixth season the coming year. Some intriguing twists on CBS's Thursday crime dramas, as that blasted Machine on Person of great interest (9/8c) spits out four Social Security amounts rather than one. Seems like Reese and Finch may have their hands full. ... As well as on The Mentalist (10/9c), we obtain a peek at unhealthy old Patrick Jane (Simon Baker), when he survives a drowning but manages to lose his memory, reverting towards the disadvantage-guy attitude he showed back before joining the CBI. ... In the watch-it-while-you are able to files, NBC presents among the last new instances of the underrated Prime Suspect (10/9c), as Jane Timoney (Maria Bello) and crew consider the dying of the Jewish gemstone merchant. ... Tonight's Bones repeat (Fox, 9/8c) is really the backdoor pilot for that approaching spinoff series The Finder (premiering Jan. 12), starring Geoff Stults like a cool war vet having a knack for finding nearly anything.

Top repeat from the evening: last season's instant-classic Community Christmas spectacular (NBC, 8/7c), an outrageous animated trip inside Abed's unpredictable psyche. ... Traditionalists, however, may stay tuned for an additional replay from the eternal classic A Charlie Brown Christmas on ABC (8/7c). Most likely only the tonic to wipe out of your brain Rory's directing of Linus' speech concerning the concept of Christmas out of this week's bizarre Glee. ... Let us visit the tape: ABC's The Entire Year With Katie Couric (9/8c) replays 2011's levels and lows, in the royal wedding of Kate and William towards the sad farce of Kim Kardashian's wedding, reliving the political revolutions abroad and also the homegrown protests within our own metropolitan areas, among other news tales which should still resonate for a while.
