Major Crimes (2012–2018)
9/10
I miss the much edgier "The Closer" with Kyra Sedgwick. but she lives on in the team.
7 April 2019
Pros

The continuing cast of funny but extremely capable guys.

The investigations were almost always interesting. Sharon Raydor was a cagey investigator (but she was no closer).

I loved that they solved the last case, which became increasingly complex and interesting.

Cons

I like Mary McDonnell as an actress but the Sharon Raydor character was too professional to be very interesting, the vast majority of the time. Even her clothes and her glasses were perpetually boring. She had great hair though.

I realize the title of this show is different but it's still a continuation of "The Closer." I missed the very quirky character played by Kyra Sedgwick. She occasionally annoyed me when she was pathologically self-absorbed or when she manipulated Fritz but I loved the way she boxed in her suspects. Raydor's methods were more analytical and much less fun.

Along with the shocking and bizarre ending, the character of Rusty was painful. He was too much, too often, and for way too long.
