“Oh, for heaven’s sake, it is a head!” The Southern drawl and mild exasperation are by now familiar to TV crime buffs: Kyra Sedgwick’s steel-magnolia-with-a-badge, Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson. The fourth season of The Closer finds Sedgwick in super form, as the scattered, ditzy mama’s girl with a weakness for junk food and a singular focus when it comes to getting perps to talk. Yet the strength of The Closer goes far beyond just Sedgwick, as formidable as she is. The ensemble cast is also stellar, and very human and believable. Johnson’s fellow cops (among whom Johnson is, finally, one of the boys, albeit in frilly skirts) are fleshed-out and battle their own demons. And this season viewers get to know Johnson’s fiancé, the FBI agent Fritz Howard (Jon Tenney), much better, along with his “psychic” sister (the unforgettable Amy Sedaris), and Brenda’s doting parents, as both families prepare for the happy couple’s impending nuptials–if serial killers and terrorist plots will only give them a little break. The boxed set includes the full season, along with delicious extras, including an unforgettable blooper reel (the cast really does seem to have a blast shooting this series, as viewers have long suspected; and don’t miss guest star Jennifer Coolidge’s R-rated ad lib café scene). There’s also an informative featurette with Corey Reynolds (the hunky Sgt. Gabriel) and LAPD Det. Mike Berchem, an adviser to the series; deleted scenes, and more. Thank you–thank you so much! –A.T.

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 Deputy Police Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson. For the Atlanta transplant heading up the Priority Homicide Division of the Los Angeles Police Department, her position on this elite detective squad, which handles high-profile cases of a sensitive nature, is a tenuous balancing act. She faces antagonistic roadblocks, even from her own peers within the department, and must manage a team that remains wary of her unconventional style.
The closest just keeps getting better and better! ,
By Racella M. Sieberg (Weed, CA USA) —
I’ve been an avid fan of this TV show from the first episode of the first season. I bought all the seasons before. I noticed that the top four of the station improvements had been made with regard to writing, to diagrams, and the characterizations of the frequent demonstrations. (yet we ‘t know Provence s name) The most rewarding thing for me is that everything about the show improved from a very dramatic way. I love watching all previous seasons shows again and again, but payment to the station four is also particularly great without all the commercials! Kyra Sedgwick is the tasty bait for this show, but every other actor in the system is a joy to behold. We applaud the writers and directors to show everyone ’s best!
Excellent season and bursting

Kyra Sedqwick is not only interesting but slightly annoying (in a good way) in her role as Brenda Leigh Johnson. In one scene she can give a performance full of drama lightened by the quirkiness of his character. The nearest station 4 was excellent. It was full of change and episodes of very good and well written. The team came under fire from the press for what is and what is not called Priority Homicide. This leads to a major restructuring of the squad and a very interesting turn of events thanks to Brenda al ’s quick thinking The platoon had to deal with their own problems: interpersonal relationships (Daniels and Gabriel) and one of them must share the loss of love. Brenda s parents came for an episode and Brenda and Fritz put in the limelight. At the time they are going to get married? Brenda and Fritz also had to deal with moving to a new place (temporary) and their relationship. The episodes were coming closer to an excellent final explosive and something big on the season.
Love, love, loves it! ,
