| The Closer #1- They'll bring you in. She'll make you talk.  Did anybody catch this show last night? I loved it. From http://www.tnt.tv In her first lead role in a dramatic series, Sedgwick plays a CIA-trained, Atlanta detective who has been brought to Los Angeles to head up the Priority Murder Squad, a special unit of the LAPD that handles sensitive, high-profile murder cases. Brenda is tapped to lead the team because she is a world-class interrogator, and when it comes to obtaining confessions, she is a closer. As the series' first episode opens, Brenda arrives in Los Angeles and immediately finds herself thrust into a very different way of life. She struggles to leave past demons behind her while dealing with co-workers who resent the fact that she leap-frogged over many veteran cops to the elevated position of Deputy Police Chief. Her quirky personality and hard-nosed approach to her job immediately rub her colleagues the wrong way, as does the fact that she is a tough-minded, Southern woman in a department dominated by men. Though focused on her career, she's also trying (somewhat unsuccessfully) to overcome her love of doughnuts, chocolate bars and other snacks and reignite a personal life that has fallen by the wayside. I love Kyra Sedgwick, and the rest of the cast is pretty good. Especially Jon Tenney.  The first episode reruns tonight @ 11 pm, but the show airs Mondays @ 9 pm for 13 episodes. __________________ I know I can't expect the world to move underneath me, but for god's sake, could you try? lex/lana("I did it for you") felicity/noel("you're my first boyfriend") trey/alex(mixing business with pleasure) seth/chloe(every superhero needs a lois lane) | |||

| I saw some of it. It looked alright, just another cop drama though, there are only so many places you can go with them at this point. THere have been so many. __________________ Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to prosper. -Benjamin Franklin You miss 100% of the shots you don't take -Wayne Gretzky | |||

| I downloaded the pilot but haven't watched it yet. (Same for The Inside). What I'm actually really waiting for is Wanted, which will also air on TNT in July. __________________ Happy Thoughts, Nina Visit Evangeline Lilly's board now (and get a cookie)! | |||

| Sorry but "edit" wouldn't work.  However, I finally got around and watched the pilot. And yeah - probably "just another cop drama". But I was totally pleased to see Allison Smith guest starring as I adore her and I think she needs to be on TV more often! Also, Kyra's character? I  her! Unfortunately the rest of the cast/characters seemed to pale in comparision. Still, I'm impatiently awaiting the next episode.__________________ Happy Thoughts, Nina Visit Evangeline Lilly's board now (and get a cookie)! | |||
