This is so weird, I've had almost the complete opposite reaction to yours this season and end of last. I loved Burn Notice because of the characters first and second, the whole "when you're a spy" thing of being The Equalizer with this hilariously altered way of looking at the world. There's been no saving people or helping people for such a long time, and while that might feel repetitive, it was what I enjoyed. I don't even understand what the fuck he's doing anymore, I literally cannot follow the plot and I have no idea why he is working with this James guy and whatever. None of it makes any sense to me beyond he was trying to save everyone at end of last season.
While I liked Fi getting on with her life, I just...I dunno, I hate that they broke up the band. It's grimdark and I didn't sign up for that. The whole thing just...disappoints me. I can't see what Michael will be at the end of the series, and it bothers me that he will end up broken and horrible because of what he once believed in. I just want him to hang out with his wonderful friends and provide leverage solve people's problems.
Maybe I should have watched in live with you in chat or something, I would have felt different.
