5 Questions With ‘Burn Notice’ Star Sharon Gless: Emmy Contender Quickie

The 10-time nominee is to the point — and kind of morbid — during TheWrap’s line of questioning

Sharon Gless is no Emmy season rookie. The “Burn Notice” star has been nominated 10 times, winning twice for her titular role in “Cagney & Lacey.” (For younger readers: Gless was Cagney.)

Gless’ most recent nomination is for “Burn Notice,” which she could get another nod for on July 10 when nominees are announced. If she wins, her acceptance speech may be of few words — you’ll see why below. But it’ll also be pretty funny, so that’s a win/win for awards show viewers.

Those catching up on “Burn Notice,” be forewarned: spoilers below.
