From his role as Ray Luca on Crime Story to Lt. Andy Flynn on Major Crimes, Tony Denison’s career has come full circle. In fact, as David Burke, executive producer of the 1986 drama points out. “He was being pursued years ago by the Major Crimes unit in Crime Story… and now you are in the Major Crimes unit in Major Crimes, right?”
Denison hadn’t made that connection before – “Holy Toledo, you’re right!” – but Burke just laughs: “Course I’m right, I had to write that show! Lt. Torello (Dennis Farina) was in charge of Major Crimes (on Crime Story), and all he wanted to do was to catch Ray Luca. So you were being chased by Major Crimes, and now you are Major Crimes.” Continue reading

Spotlight on Major Crimes’ Stacey K. Black

In a new interview, Mimosa Arts blog talks to Stacey K. Black about her work and passions in music, documentary film and television, and her unlikely transition from hair stylist to director on The Closer and now, Major Crimes.
“During season 3 of The Closer, I approached Exec. Producer/Director Mike Robin and asked if he would consider me as a director, if and when they started to promote from within the company. I knew it was a long shot, because its just not done. Promoting a hairstylist to director? Its not. But I thought, well its not done, until it IS done. So, I just had to ask, and I gave him my short films to watch. If I didn’t, then the answer would automatically be no. Three years later, a couple weeks before we started shooting season 6, I was called in to the producer’s office, and greeted by Exec. Producers Mike Robin, Greer Shephard, James Duff, Rick Wallace, and Kyra Sedgwick, so they could all tell me that I was going to be directing an episode that season. It was surreal! ”
