GW Bailey talks about Major Crimes and his work with the Sunshine Kids Foundation

In a new interview with Assignment X, GW Bailey talks about the transition to Major Crimes and the changes that has meant for Provenza and his work as Executive Director of the childrens cancer charity The Sunshine Kids.

ASSIGNMENT X: Is MAJOR CRIMES more of an ensemble now that it’s not THE CLOSER and no longer titled after a single lead character?

G.W. BAILEY: Oh, I think so. We still have a lead character and her story is still the catalyst, the glue that holds us together, but there certainly is more of a sense of ensemble. With Brenda Leigh Johnson – we’re supposed to be the crème de la crème of the LAPD, but of course, we couldn’t find a clue [laughs]. Only the lead could find clues.

AX: So you now get to look like better detectives?

BAILEY: Yeah. We’re marginally smarter than we were.

G.W. Bailey Talks About His Involvement With ‘The Sunshine Kids’ and Major Crimes

In a great new interview with GiveMeMyRemote.com, G.W. Bailey talks about his involvement with the children’s cancer charity “The Sunshine Kids” and discusses Major Crimes and the chances of a second season.

As for Bailey’s day job, he said he was pleased by the reaction he’s been getting to MAJOR CRIMES.

“Great feedback,” he said. “I’m not even on set now, so I don’t have to talk positive. When they pay me, I have to talk nice, but I’m not being paid so I can say what I want. I just came back from a trip…and the reaction is tremendous. I think, obviously, that can be proven or shown by the ratings. The ratings not only started strong as anticipated because we were immediately after THE CLOSER on the same night, but then they stayed strong and they increased. Everybody expected a good, strong falloff from the cushion-y debut when you’re right behind the number one show on cable. And it turned out to be the number one finale in the history of cable. And lo and behold it turned out to be the number one launch and just grew from there.”
