Will we be seeing more of Buzz in this season? I feel like there is more of his character that we need to see.

I'm also wondering if we'll see Brenda's mom again or Dennis Dutton. They are great characters. And please don't break up Brenda and Fritz. It would be nice, for once, to see a couple stay together on TV...it does happen in the real world, you know.

I love the Closer and so does my sister. We've been watching it since it first aired. Brenda's mother should show up more often, I enjoyed those few episodes so much. I knew her mother knew Fritz was living there. And the rest of the guys in her office are hilarious. They should include Fritz more often to make Brenda's life more complicated with him around. And I love those frumpy clothes she wears. I have no questions....just killing time till it's new season starts. The show just makes my summer special, a good start for Monday evenings and the rest of the week. P.S. sis and I also watch all the reruns.

Give us the real dirt - what is Kitty like to work with?? And is it a male or a female?
Another question, I ADORE LT Provenza! When are we going to see more of him, and particularly his Brenda impersonations!

My mom loves this show. She keeps asking me when the Season Premiere is because she thinks she has missed it, when she hasn't, and she doesnt want to miss it. It's one of the few shows on TV she watches anymore that she could really love and enjoy. Thank you for this show.
Now here is my question to you, Kyra. First of all, let me say CONGRATULATIONS on your Golden Globe win. There were smiles all around in my house. Your character is this beautiful, yet tough-as-nails legal chief who has a soft side, a great sense of fashion, who has this thing with junk food(sweets in particular). This is a role that you were made to play. How did you end up playing this character and what are some of the things you love about her?

Thank you all for creating a show so thoroughly enjoyable to watch! I apologize for all the questions, but I really want to know...
To Kyra:
Kyra, congrats on the Golden Globe win—you deserve it! Do you feel you share any similar characteristics that Brenda has (i.e. her sweet tooth, carrying everything you could possibly need in life in your purse etc.)
To James Duff:
Will Commander Taylor ever come around to respecting Brenda enough to work with her and not always be so rude to her in the process?
Will we be seeing more development of the relationship between Detective Daniels and Sgt. Gabriel (like what we see with Fritz and Brenda—obviously it has to be undercover but it would be nice to see how these two interact outside the office)?
Will you please help satisfy my curiosity by telling us what Pope gave Brenda for her B-day?
To Corey:
What drew you to playing Sgt. Gabriel and how does he differ from roles you have played in the past? I love the enthusiasm Sgt. Gabriel has toward learning and I wanted to know what similarities you share with your character?
Thank you all for such an amazing show!!!

Love the show. It's the best summer TV (or really anytime TV).
My first Q: Will we ever see Bill Croelick ("Fatal Retraction") or Dennis Dutton ("The Butler Did It"/"Aftertaste") again? I can't imagine Brenda letting two suspected killers go free for long.
Second: My favorite episode is the season one finale ("Standards and Practices") where the team starts to bond. Is the team getting any new members who will mess that up this season?
Third: What are each of your favorite episodes or moments in the show?
Finally, just congrats on your success and thanks for the great show!

I have watched The Closer since it began and I LOVE the show. I have probably seen all the episodes at least twice, if not more. My favorite episode is the one in which Lieutenant's Provenza and Flynn commandeer a crime scene in which the dead body was originally found by the two at Provenza's home, but they decided to try to go to a baseball game before doing anything about it. It was a great episode for the mystery and the characters and had wonderful comedic parts in it as well. I do love all the episodes and I would say that The Closer is by far my most favorite show on tv, hands down. I just wish I didn't have to wait all year to see it. However, it does give me something to watch during the summer.
I would NOT change Fritz's character at all. He is the type of man I would love to meet and date, and, heck, marry. He is strong and supportive, but he doesn't demand or lie or cheat. He puts up with Brenda's behavior which is no small feat. I, too, want them to stay together. The fact that they have conflict makes the relationship real, because how many real couples that STAY TOGETHER don't have conflict? Keep them together. Mr. Tenney - are you anything like Fritz? If so, how about a date? (kidding) You are very handsome!
I have loved Kyra Sedgwick since her role in Hearts and Souls with Robert Downey, Jr. I love everything about Kyra's character Brenda. She has a strong personality and is not afraid to exert her authority, but she has her vulnerabilities as well. My sister doesn't like the Southern accent, but I love it.
Mr Duff - keep up the wonderful work and DO NOT quit regardless of network politics! Too many wonderful shows have bit the dust when the original creators/writers left. Don't do that to this show!
Thank you for making summer tv great!

To anyone: How diverse is the cast and writing staff in terms of where Brenda is with her life and who she is with? What are some of the directions people are thinking she should go in?
