What I'm Watching: The Closer

The Closer: Season 3, Episode 7 "Four to Eight" (B+)

Brenda's mysterious ailment is amusing with a slight air of foreboding seriousness. The gang war case is intruiging, not nearly as real or gritty as on "The Shield", but Sanchez serves as a good liaison for the gangs and one with a personal connection. That is one of the best aspects of the show, taking turns highlighting a specific character and giving a member of the cast the opportunity to take the spotlight and shine. Corey Reynolds (Gabriel) has already had his shot this year, and now Raymond Cruz gets to give Sanchez some great character background.
