Season five of Major Crimes just finished this week. And recently, series creator James Duff spoke with TVLine about that explosive season ender for the TNT TV series.
The crime drama follows the investigations of the detectives in the Los Angeles Police Department’s Major Crimes division. The cast includes Mary McDonnell, Tony Denison, GW Bailey, Michael Paul Chan, Raymond Cruz, Robert Gossett, Phillip P. Keene, Graham Patrick Martin, Kearran Giovanni, and Jonathan Del Arco. TNT has already renewed the series for a sixth season.
In the interview, Duff revealed the season five finale was originally written as a series finale:
But we also wanted to put an explosive punctuation to the end of the series, if that’s what we were doing, and instead it was an explosive punctuation to the end of the season. And as season enders go, it’s pretty big for us.”
Later, the creator said a renewal wasn’t a sure thing and TNT “was so unsure about whether or not they were going to pick up the series” for season six.
What do you think? Do you watch Major Crimes? Are you glad it’s coming back for another season?
Very glad to hear that Major Crimes is coming back this fall!! Great show, great actors and their characters! High Five to all!
My favorite series on television. I am so grateful that it has not been cancelled and I look forward to more episodes of Major Crimes. Great cast, stories.
Major Crimes is our favorite show. We’ve watched faithfully. Please do not cancel it. The characters are great and the way they’ve developed has been a joy to watch.
Please do not cancel Major Crimes, I love the show the finale was great had me on the end on my chair. I was screaming the suit case the suite case and at the grave yard was really great wondering if my girl was going to get killed Sharon Rader or the other stars. I love all the players and I watch the reruns at least 2 time a week. Police stories with real life issues is way better than all the one with blood killing with crazy people is old,. Major Crime is fresh and up to date love… Read more »
I think it’s the best show on television! Period. Love it. Don’t cancel it, please!!!! Everything else is vulgar and lame or silly.
Please Don’t cancel Major Crimes we really enjoy the Cast & the writing!!!
They better not cancel Major Crimes!!! I will be severely pissed off!!!
I love this show please TNT do not cancel.
My husband have watched it from the start and we love it. We always look forward to it. Please leave it on
I love “Major Crimes”. In fact, I think it is one of the best ensemble shows ever. Please renew it!
Major Crimes is one of my favorite shows. I am so glad they are on for another season and hope they continue
Love this show and I hope it isn’t cancelled. It’s the only TNT show I watch now. They used to have some other good shows as well but they’ve gone by the wayside to make room for new shows that I have no interest in watching. USA did the same thing. Thank goodness USA has kept Suits!!
Love this show!!
In BC, Canada only able to see previous seasons: would love to see current.
Great cast, great stories. Blue Bloods no longer a fave
Love this show. One of the best on TV.
That show is so freaking golden right now. Frankly, I am more worried that the cast’s contracts are up next season than I am the toothless bite of TNT. With the clusterflucks of the new shows they are bringing on, including a renewal of Good Behavior that could never attain a .2 in dem0, shows just what dire straits the network is in. It will be Kevin Reilly, who needs to be worried about being cancelled. I would actually prefer to see MC move to something like broadcast. Their Monday night numbers show they can more than compete in that… Read more »
