Major Crimes season 4 review

We have bemoaned at times the strictly procedural nature of “Major Crimes,” largely because this is a show that feels like it can do more than that. It does at times, but most with the Rusty character. Why can’t more of the adults have stories that carry over from one week to the next? Luckily, […]

After a long wait, “Major Crimes” returned to TNT with a few different stories that contained varying levels of intrigue to them. We don’t typically like to spend much time in these episodes on the case of the week, mostly because at this point, trying to discuss these in-depth is often a losing battle. These […]

Throughout the entire fourth season of “Major Crimes,” Rusty has been hard at work trying to uncover the truth about Marianna Wallace. When he started, he was not even referring to her by that name. Eventually he managed to find a way to get to Gus and extension learned about Paloma, and make sure that […]

Through most of this season of “Major Crimes,” one of the side stories has been learning a thing or two about the Alice Herrera case. Last week, we discovered that Alice’s real name was Marianna, and with the help of Gus, we are now starting to get closer to having some of the answers. We […]

From the vantage point of the case itself, we really cannot say that Monday night’s new “Major Crimes” episode really brought a whole lot when it comes to surprises. For the most part, this was a fairly straightforward cold case being re-opened, with the only wrinkle being having to work with someone new. That is […]

“Major Crimes” aired its seventh episode of season 4 last night, and it was one that can definitely be described as emotional. There is a certain weight to any case that revolves around the death of police officers, and tonight Fritz Howard was brought in after Leary and Tracy were both shot and killed after seeing […]

The formula of “Major Crimes” at the moment tends to follow what we have come to know as a fairly basic formula. We learn a thing or two about one of the cast members, while at the same time see them tackle a case. The main message that we took away from the case tonight […]

There is something to us that is very fun about watching Flynn and Raydor’s romantic arc on “Major Crimes.” These are two characters who have been around the show (not to mention “The Closer”) a very long time, but haven’t really gone to this place just yet. This is a chance for them to try […]

When Buzz had an opportunity to embark on his first day as reserve officer, who knew that it would turn out like this? Monday night’s “Major Crimes” brought us its own version of a red wedding, one where an alternate suitor to the bride was found dead in a bathtub and we were left wonder […]

Tonight’s “Major Crimes” is not necessarily one that we are going to remember when it comes to long-term stories. Sure, we did get a little bit of Rusty and Raydor courtesy of what the former managed to get out of Slider last week in the Alice Herrera case, but this feels somewhat like a slow […]
