Season 4 of THE CLOSER started this past Monday with an amazing episode that not only showcased the ensemble but the talents of their guest casting. Jason O’Mara once gave me the interesting tingle of thinking a complete psychopath is hot, just as he did Season 1. Loooooves…
Anyhow, this is supposed to be about another guest talent they’ve lined up for their August 11th episode. According to word I just got from TNT, funny gal Jennifer Coolidge stops by Priority Homicide for a Provenza-centric episode!
In the episode entitled “Dial M for Provenza,” Coolidge plays Angie Serabian, a none-too-bright woman married to the rich owner of a car dealership who winds up ensnared in an undercover sting operation. “Dial M for Provenza” not only provides a great showcase for Coolidge but also for veteran actor G.W. Bailey as Lt. Provenza, whose unfortunate luck once again edges him towards the cusp of forced retirement.
Coolidge is a comic genius and it pains me some of the hideous roles she takes on but we’ll always have her brilliance when she takes on a Christopher Guest role. Fingers crossed that she kicks ass here. I’m dying to see how she and Provenza interact… I’m laughing already!
