Rated: C Feb 24, 2020 Full Review Heather Havrilesky Salon.com Nothing is better on this show than Brenda's little nanny-nanny-boo-boo moment with the victim. Jul 3, 2019 Full Review John Leonard New York Magazine/Vulture Kyra Sedgwick's Brenda Johnson is not only back for another summer season as deputy chief of priority homicide at the Los Angeles Police Department but also back from her surprise fling with ambivalence and prevarication... Jan 5, 2018 Full Review Leigh H. Edwards PopMatters The fourth season return of The Closer finds fresh ways to mine the tensions between work and private life endured by LAPD Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson (Kyra Sedgwick). Rated: 8/10 Jul 3, 2019 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette A well-balanced prime-time drama that has improved markedly from its earliest episodes. Jul 14, 2008 Full Review Robert Canning IGN Movies It does a fantastic job of reestablishing a real world environment while still presenting an investigation with enough twists and turns to keep things interesting.
