Amazon.com:
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




Rating: - Brilliant show!
I loved this show. I've only watched the first season recently and I can now see what all the fuss is about. I think they desserve all the awards this show has won.
To tell you the truth, I don't even remember who else is on this show because Kyra outshines all of them put together. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her character because she's tough, but yet she always knows how to "act" to get the criminal to talk. I love when she goes into her little "nice" act to manipulate the ciminals into talking ... Read More

Rating: - Great First Season
When I first saw The Closer I didn't like it. Somehow I got hooked -- and decided to order the first season to see how it all started and am glad I did. Their cast has somebody for everyone -- young, old, ethnic -- a pleasant change.

Rating: - Great
I missed the first season of the Closer, so I am enjoying watching these episodes very much. I recommend them for the Closer fans.

Rating: - The Closer - Season One
This is one of the best shows on TV, and after having seen Season Two first, it was absolutely necessary to get hold of Season One too. This can definitely be recommended to any one interested in crime without too much violence.

Rating: - Fine you win!
Netflix bugged me for a year, telling me I would like this show but I just didn't see it. Man was I wrong. The Closer is a wonderful show. Kyra Sedgwick and her co-stars pull what could have been another "Law & Order" like show to a whole new leveal. The show is not just about sloving the case but the lifes of the officers, funny and heart breaking sometimes. This is a great show. BUY IT!
