Joss talks about S8

In one of the best interviews I have read with Joss about S8, Important Things are (*SPOILERS*) revealed.

I am looking forward to the second half of this season even more now.

Burn Notice S2 a split season?

According to Watch with Kristin (*SPOILERS* for multiple series in that link), S2 will have two parts to it:
"Ron in Memphis, Tenn.: How many episodes of Burn Notice are we being blessed with this summer?
The second-season order is for 16 episodes, but when I talked to Matt Nix last week I was surprised to learn that the season is being split in two. The first nine episodes premiere July 10 and run through September 18 (with preemptions on Aug. 28 and Sept. 9 to make room for the U.S. Open), and then the final seven premiere in January 2009."

Obviously the split season is the new black. But still, 16 episodes? WOOHOO!
