With bloodshot and watery eyes and breath reeking of alcohol, Jeffrey Donovan told police he didn't think he was that impaired when he nearly hit a patrol car in Miami Beach, according to authorities.

"I really think I'm only borderline and not too drunk," the Burn Notice star said to officers, according to a report. He also allegedly said: "The only mistake I made tonight was drinking Benadryl and three glasses of wine."

That, and failing a roadside sobriety test, police said.

Donovan, 41, was arrested July 11 after a late-night incident in which his 2009 Audi "quickly swerved in order to avoid striking the rear of the patrol car," his arrest affidavit states.

Donovan, who refused to take a Breathalyzer test, was booked at Miami Beach police headquarters and released several hours later.

His rep declined to comment.

I've bought Seasons 1 + 2 and keeping up with 3 now. I'm hooked. I was let down the Unit was canceled, but this is more than an equal replacement.

Westin and the detective last seaon made for some funny times. Fiona is just too darn hot.

Yeah totally. I am hooked to the show. I watched Season 1 and 2 in just a week or so...

I agree, Fiona is too hot! Westin is funny!

Burn Notice Panel

The Burn Notice panel was a very popular event in Ballroom 20 on Thursday at Comic-Con. Michael Shanks moderated. When he was announced, I wasn?t sure my hearing would survive, but it did.

The panel had Ben Shenkman, Matt Nix, Alfredo Barrios jr., actor Jay Karns, actor Seth Petersen and Bruce Campbell. When Bruce came out, the crowd went berserk and I finally did lose my hearing. Twilighters have nothing on this group.

The panel had a few great videos. One of them had Michael Westen narrating how to not miss any Comic-Con panels. It?s simple really. All you have to do is create a problem that delays one of the other panels to give you enough time to get over to it. Of course Michael Westen?s methods always appeal to me, so I?m not going to describe it. It?s mine, and several hundred others secret now.

We then got a bit of a sneak peek at scenes from this season?s final episodes this year. I have to say, explosions in Ballroom 20 are so much better than in my living room.

Matt Nix jumped right into the fray and talked about Michael?s missing mystery father. He humorously noted that Micheal?s father did not burn him. That was our huge inside scoop. He added a bit about the addition of family to the show, saying that spies don?t always have families and it was a great angle to add to the show.

Pretty much, the panel was about Bruce Campbell, even when he tried to let the other personalities have the chat time.

Someone yelled out they love Bruce. Campbell got up, called them up to the stage and gave them money for saying it. (I?ll presume the denomination of a $20 bill, but I wasn?t close enough to see.)

He was asked what part of Sam?s character are more like or least like Bruce himself.

Most like: He wears those shirts all the time.

Least likely: his wife doesn?t let him sleep with rich Miami women.

Bruce couldn?t help himself and brought up that there?s a new Evil Dead movie, and he?s going to call it Dead Notice. People enjoyed that levity directed towards everyone?s desire to see a new Evil Dead movie.

Matt Nix added, while thinking on this new idea, There?s a reason you want to fight a zombie with a chain saw. LOL, I can hear Michael?s voice on that one.

I?ve never actually caught on to this, but they have little Easter Egg-like nuggets through the show. Has anyone noticed that one of Fiona?s boyfriends name is Campbell? The different restaurants they visit are named after the writers children and other little bits. Now we?ll have to start paying close attention.

Michael Shanks is pretty snarky & witty and as he opened up the floor to attendee questions, he noted how these ?can be so interesting!?

Bruce Campbell was asked how to start being a film maker, considering his origins. he said don?t copy anyone. Do things that people will want to copy from you.

They?re almost done shooting this season and they?re looking for fun things to do with Michael?s brother and I swore I hear them say ?or another brother.?

In case you?re wondering, the naming of Brennan?s Yogurt led to 3 hour argument about what to name it.

Someone asked about a Burn Notice movie and Matt Nix said let?s put it to the people and asked the crowd. the crowd lit up and my ears were done.

Bruce noted that Matt Nix does not use digital explosions. They?ve apparently blown a house off it?s foundation with their explosions. Nice!

Someone asked if they would quit letting Sam get his butt kicked. Bruce then asked the guy to come up, and gave out more money!

How do they come up with the Macgyverisms / voice overs: The show has a former intelligence operative as a consultant, that and the internet.

It was asked if Bruce offered a role in Drag Me To Hell. Bruce said, no and then proceeded to hem and haw and said that Sam will pay for that and have to put him in Spider-Man 4, 5 and 6.

Someone asked Matt nix if he has Bruce help him write the funny lines of the show. Someone else just made $20 more bucks.

Bruce noted out loud, ?How was Comic-Con Bruce?? He answered himself: ?Expensive!?

A guy dressed up as a jester ran up to the mic and Shanks said ?Oh, we gotta hear this one.? But the Jester was overtaken with another instructional video from Micheal Westen on surviving Comic-Con.

This was a fun panel between Shanks, Campbell and the videos - fun and interactive panel.

USA's two highly successful Thursday night shows, Burn Notice and Royal Pains,have just been given the green light for new seasons by the basic cable channel, says The Hollywood Reporter. Word of the renewals come hot on the heels of July 9 stats that showed the Fox TV-produced Burn Notice and Universal Cable's Royal Pains pulling in a strong 7.1 million and 7.3 million viewers, respectively.

    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
    • Watch Louis Rossmann's recent experience on YouTube about trying to get a warranty replacement from Samsung. It's crazy.
    • That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.
    • They use FREE AI. They aren't paying for this meme-generating slopware...
    • Gotta' buy that there Rufus guy a beer if I ever meet him. He makes good stuff.
