phynckeThe Closer (2005-2012)
Last Five Episodes
Summary: IMDB
Deputy Police Chief Brenda Johnson runs the Priority Homicide Division of the LAPD with an unorthodox style. Her innate ability to read people and obtain confessions helps her and her team solve the city's toughest, most sensitive cases.
I cannot believe that The Closer is on its last five episodes. What can you say about the character of Brenda Lee Johnson - the tenacious investigator who heads up Los Angeles Major Crimes. She is flawed, she has a sugar addiction but she closes her cases. I have been following this show for quite some time and it really revolves around this very strong central character played by Kyra Sedgwick. She is really great here in playing a strong female lead with guts and determination. I will be sorry to see this character go but I have enjoyed her performance in this role. Hats off Brenda Lee and you have worn some great hats!
Note - there is going to be a new show called Major Crimes with some of the supporting cast from this show less the Brenda Lee character. I will check that out and let you know how that is. I am unsure how that will work without this strong central character to anchor the show. Have to see on that.
IMDB for cast and credits:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0458253/
Overall rating:
Excellent. Really great performance on the lead character.
Recommend:
Yes!
Warnings:
Disturbing crimes and violence.
