    You'll be happy to know that every second -- particularly every second with Sedgwick onscreen -- is pretty much a joy.

    Brenda and Bill have enough reluctant chemistry and icky tension to make Clarice Starling and Hannibal Lecter proud. [18 Jul 2008, p.56]

    It's good news that much of Season 4 will focus on Brenda's investigative team and on police department politics.

    Writers, actors, cast selection, all involved with this remarkable show get a high ten, most especially Kyra Sedgwick. She deserves a standing ovation every Monday night. Drama, melodrama, humor, diverse characters, great actoring, story content, this show has everything going for it. Keep up the great work. You're getting better every year. Expand

    Man, I love this show! It's got one of the best supporting casts on television, the guest stars are almost always excellent, and Kyra of course keeps the whole shebang together. "The Closer" blends crime, humor, romance, and family, and I love love love the cultural diversity on display. Expand
