Perhaps their strikingly different personalities make the relationship between detective Jane Rizzoli and medical examiner Maura Isles so effective. Jane, the only female cop in Boston's homicide division, is tough, relentless and rarely lets her guard down, while the impeccably dressed Maura displays a sometimes icy temperament -- she is, after all, more comfortable among the dead than the living. Together, the best friends have forged a quirky and supportive relationship; they drop the protective shield in each other's company, and combine their expertise to solve Boston's most complex cases.

Audience Member The fifth season of Rizzoli & Isles crashes and burns, but to be fair it's sort of given a bad hand to start with. Forced to deal with the death of cast member Lee Thompson Young and the Rizzoli pregnancy cliffhanger, the writers faced some difficult challenges. Still, the show actually does a fairly good job at handling the loss of Young's character; but before long they start milking it and use it as a crutch. The pregnancy plot however, is never taken seriously and it shows. The theme of the season in fact seems to be to destroy character growth and reset the series. And while some of the cases-of-the-week are interesting, they're usually offset by insipid and annoying personal drama B-plots. With Season 5 of Rizzoli & Isles, the show has lost any ambition that it once had and has settled for mediocrity. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Great show about two female professionals that both men and women like to watch Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Devolved into a family soap opera. Can anyone explain why no one on the show speaks with a New England accent? Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
