Captain Sharon Raydor and her team will be back next summer. TNT has renewed their popular Major Crimes TV series for a fourth season of 16 episodes.
Michael Wright, president and head of programming for TNT, noted, “Major Crimes continues to be one of the most enduring and popular crime-drama franchises on television.”
Airing on Monday nights, Major Crimes follows the further investigations of the detectives in the Los Angeles Police Department’s Major Crimes division. The crime drama’s cast includes Mary McDonnell, GW Bailey, Tony Denison, Michael Paul Chan, Raymond Cruz, Robert Gossett, Phillip P. Keene, Jonathan Del Arco, Kearran Giovanni, and Graham Patrick Martin.
So far, the current season has been averaging 4.98 million viewers each week, up about 5% when compared to season two’s ratings. There are 19 episodes in season three and only 10 of them have been scheduled for this summer so far.
Today, the cable channel also renewed The Last Ship and Falling Skies for next summer. The latter will return for its final season.
What do you think? Do you like the Major Crimes series? Are you glad that it’s coming back?
I love Major Crimes. It is exciting without being vulgar. It is believable. I love Rusty being on the show. It is needful to see something other than a murder and all the actors trying to figure out “who done it”. Rusty is able to portray someone who has been very damaged, and is struggling to get it together. Sharon Raydor has done an awesome job of helping Rusty discover he has worth and yet pushes him to take responsibility. It was great to see how she stepped back and allowed Rusty to come out of denial and realize the… Read more »
I’m glad we are to get another season. I would like just a little less Rusty and a little more Flynn and Provenza. Their occasional escapades certainly made the Closer sparkle. Although Rusty does show a side of Raynor’s charcater that we never saw in the Closer, but I think we’ve got it now! I don’t find it it as entrancing as The Closer, I like to hear the occasional reference to Brenda and hope that Fritz hasn’t been written out.
I am over joyed Major Crimes will be back. It is one of the top 3 shows that remain on TV.For the most part reality shows have ruined TV
Don’t care for Rusty. He is whinny and don’t see much point for his character. Liked Brenda Lee better than Raydor. Her character isn’t believable as a captain. Love the rest of the characters mostly. Kearran Giovanni could go too.
Look forward to season 4 and new who-done-it crime-solving. Send Rusty to college and get him out of the script. Woosie cry-babies have no place in a crime series. It’s a crime to keep this character. Ruins the series.
Absolutely love this show. Never missed ‘Closer’ and will watch these two show over and over. Never gets old. One of the best ‘Spin Offs’ ever. Agree re: the character of Rusty a bit overdone.
Major Crimes is one of the best on TV. Absolutely excited that there will be another season!!
Love it, when does season 5 start?, I’ve bought all the seasons on Amazon…..I’m totally addicted
We watch every show. But too much of Rusty. The sound recording of Mary is not good she needs to talk up. Like most crime shows female voices have a small echo. Ncis has too much music overlay.
am so looking forward to the new season of Major Crimes. Have never missed a single episode of it or its beginning, The Closer. Wish they could bring Brenda Lee in for at least one episode, I really miss her wit. The” if I wanted to be called a ***** to my face, I would still be married,” was a true classic. She could give Sharon some real tips on how to get rid of Jack lol.
Lose the Rusty. This a really good show that could only benefit by the absence of this sorry character. Let’s get back to some real detective work.
I am so glad Major Crimes is back TNT is my favorite channel and if my shows were cancelled then TNT would be nothing to me. I love Major Crimes and thank you for bringing it back.
Love major crimes and cannot wait for the new season!
I can not wait until the second half of season 3 comes back on. It is too long of a break. I would like to see more love interests for the guys of major crimes, more of how their job effects their families and personal lives. You can only catch so many bad guys.
I love all characters in Major Crimes. The show is funny as well as a good mystery.
I would be very disappointed if the show did not return. I was also a big fan of the Closer.
One of the best crime shows on TV. We look forward to Monday nights and wouldn’t miss it. We are very pleased to see it returning for another season.
I love Major Crimes, even better than The Closer. Characters are much stronger now and more complex. Great and realistic police drama, best on TV.
