There’s something about The Closer

By J.A. Dettman

One of the shows that I miss watching when it airs is The Closer on TNT. I’m not really sure of the exact reason but I enjoy watching it so very much. We have the first four season on DVD and I think I’m going to spend a ridiculous amount of time re-watching them. Before we bought them, we had borrowed them from Britt’s mom and watched them a few times, too.

Part of it is that I love procedural television. Law & Order (the original), CSI (also the original), Monk (before they axed Sharona), Burn Notice. I could go on but I think you get where I’m going.

Part of it is that I love the characters. The ways they interact, the ways that Chief Johnson makes each of them crazy in different ways, and the way they work together as a team. The show just seems to have the perfect formula of elements that make it a pleasure to watch.
