Warning: Spoilers
It is a sad event when a television series ends despite the flaws to some viewers who want to be producers, too. Get your own series is the call out to the critics, if you do not like what you see, get your own to find how difficult it can be to please everyone. Major Crimes came to a close with plenty of action, drama and a satisfactory ending. Lieutenant Provenza and Rusty Beck got their man Stroh in a one-sided shootout, Phillip was not given the opportunity to shoot the lieutenant because Mr. Beck entered and shot Stroh five times, dead at the scene.

Miserable little Dylan got what he deserved when Lt. Tao shot him through the door of the house he was working; it was as pleasurable to see Tao shoot Dylan as Rusty shoot Stroh.

Clues leading to the showdown were purchases Stroh had made in bulk which were not for someone flying out of the country, i.e. cases of food and some liquor. Plan A for Stroh was indeed the charter plane he had pre-paid, but his plans changed when LAPD gathered at the airport for his arrival to board. Instead, Stroh had his alternative transportation on the yacht Ms. Bechtel, but Provenza had seen the picture in the home of slain Tammy Bechtel and sought a look around after he had viewed Tammy's body on the floor of her home. Stroh was to kill no more when all was over and done due to Rusty intervening on Provenza's behalf.

I could have done without the epilogue speech but the camera shot to the roses on the empty desk of the late Commander wrapped it up for me; buy the premise buy the program, that simple. Thank you creator, producers and writers for making this series enjoyable to watch; and to the actors, I thank you for a professional job well done.
