Burn Notice Season 1
So a spy gets a "burn notice", they are disavowed from the community, assets are frozen, and you don't get to know who issued it.
From this fairly standard premise this cable network show uses fan favorite Bruce Campbell in a nice supporting role, and goes above its formula with great writing and good acting turns. Pure entertainment.
