Telly’s Take
Although it’s in the middle of TNT’s pack in terms of the coveted demo numbers, even five seasons in, Major Crimes is one of TNT’s most watched shows. Since the cabler decided to let top performer Rizzoli & Isles wind to a close after seven seasons, the Major Crimes season six renewal makes perfect sense. But mark my words, one fine day, I will sate my hunger.
10/3/17 update: Season six will be the final season. Details here.
