Product Description:
An offbeat personality a tough-as-nails approach and a track record as one of the country's leading investigators--these are just a few of the traits exhibited by television's next great detective Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson played by three-time Golden Globe Award nominee Kyra Sedgwick in "The Closer." In her first lead role in a dramatic series Sedgwick plays a tough CIA-trained detective with Southern charm who has been brought from Atlanta to Los Angeles to head up the Priority Murder Squad a special unit of the LAPD that handles sensitive high-profile murder cases. "The Closer" is executive produced by the team behind "Nip/Tuck."Running Time: 602 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC: 012569806405 Manufacturer No: 80640

Deputy Police Chief Brenda Johnson (Kyra Sedgwick, Personal Velocity) isn't about making friends, she's about getting results. Days after her transfer from Atlanta, the LAPD's Priority Homicide Division decides they can't work with the blunt-talking Southern belle. Fortunately, she has former CIA colleague, Assistant Police Chief Will Pope (J.K. Simmons, Spider-Man), on her side. As he explains to Captain Taylor (Robert Gossett), who she has just replaced, "She is not miss congeniality...but she's a closer." Set to the sound of urban blues, TNT's The Closer is Columbo by way of Prime Suspect. In other words, Johnson may be as messy as Oscar Madison, but she's as sharp as Sherlock Holmes. Throughout the first season, she'll solve 13 murders, including those of a reclusive mathematician, a Russian prostitute, and a British butler. She won't get much support from her colleagues, except for Sergeant David Gabriel (Corey Reynolds, Broadway's Hairspray)--to the consternation of his co-workers, like Detective Lieutenants Provenza (G.W. Bailey, M*A*S*H) and Flynn (Tony Denison, Melrose Place). Johnson also has a friend in FBI Special Agent Fritz Howard (Jon Tenney, You Can Count on Me). With his help, she'll eventually settle into her new environment, especially when she lands a house and a cat on the same day (conveniently left behind by a victim). Just as it takes awhile for the chief to grow on her squad--and to get used to driving in LA--Sedgwick's Golden Globe-nominated performance follows a similar trajectory. Fortunately, "Scarlett O'Hara," as the droll Provenza dubs her, becomes more fully-rounded as the season progresses, aided by a superb SAG Award-nominated ensemble cast. Consulting producer on The Closer is former LA District Attorney Gil Garcetti of O.J. infamy. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

I only watched the first episode and barely made it through. I've never seen a more obvious plot in my life. Not only is the plot week, but the acting is poor, especially the supporting cast. Since this show gets so much good buzz, maybe it gets better as the season progresses, but then again, 2 and Half Men gets good reviews and it is mindless drivel.

This is a great show. The mix of Drama with a light comedy is just right. The one liners are great.

I fell in love with the The Closer on first season. Kyra Sedgwick beats Meryl Streep hands down on conveying changing emotions. And the crew they assembled for this show are just perfect. The story plots grab you and keep you. Is like finding that really good book you can't put down.
I want 3rd Season to come out soonest.

"The Closer" is simply the best "cop show" around. It has enough of the procedural background to be convincing but what makes this show so enjoyable are the characters: Deputy Chief Brenda Lee Johnson (Kyra Sedgwick) and her group of detectives, her boss and former boyfriend Chief Will Pope, and her current boyfriend/FBI Special Agent Fritz Howard. Brenda is abrupt and abrasive but not unkind - she is simply too focused on solving the case to remember her manners, sometimes. This first season shows ... Read More

I missed the first two seasons and have been catching up with the DVD. This show is wonderful and watching it without commercials is a plus.
