Interview: Tony Denison Talks About Major Crimes and The Closer

In a new interview with Asssignment X Magazine, Tony Denison reminisces on the end of The Closer, the differences in Major Crimes, and his role on the 80′s drama Crime Story.

ASSIGNMENT X: Has Andy Flynn changed in going from THE CLOSER TO MAJOR CRIMES?

TONY DENISON: No, he’s still the lieutenant and we have more to do on the new show, which is great. It’s great what we were doing on the old show. G.W. and I had an opportunity to have these comic episodes that we would break off and do. We had those opportunities to do those sort of off-kilter [scenes and episodes]. In this show, we really haven’t had a chance to do that much. But we do still have our repartee with one another, looks, rolled eyes and stuff. We also are doing much more procedural work now with Mary. We’re on crime scenes coming up with stuff to do as detectives would.

Interview: Tony Denison Talks about Major Crimes with Working Author Magazine

In a new interview with Working Author, Tony Denison discusses the transition between The Closer and Major Crimes, his friendship with G.W. Bailey and more.

“It’s like when they say your life exceeds your dreams,” Denison says, “that’s what’s going on right now for me.” He went on to discuss his character and what Kyra Sedgwick’s leaving means for the show. “You know, I love playing this character. I’ve been fortunate enough to play it for seven years, worked with really good actors and had a really good female lead on the show, Kyra. And now Kyra leaves and we go to a really good female lead in Mary McDonnell. And lest people forget, Mary McDonnell was nominated for Academy Awards twice. And that didn’t happen because people felt sorry for her. They did it because she’s really, really good.”

Tony Denison Discusses Closing the Book on THE CLOSER and What’s Next for Detective Lt. Andy Flynn on MAJOR CRIMES

Tony Denison discusses the end of The Closer and what he’s looking forward to on Major Crimes with theTVaddict.com

Assuming you’re still playing Detective Flynn in MAJOR CRIMES, are you still looking forward to him being paired up with Provenza?
TONY:  Oh yes!  I can tell you now, I’ll be on MAJOR CRIMES, as will G.W. So Flynn and Provenza’s trails and exploits will continue on ad infinitum.  [Laughs]  And you know, it’s a blessing.  The other blessing is Mary McDonnell, who plays Captain Raydor, as she moves from one show to the other — she’s phenomenal.  She’s a phenomenal person to work with.  I tell people that if Mary McDonnell is not genuine, then there is no hope for mankind.
