Close to Home (2005)

After just two seasons (which is not enough of this show), it looks like CBS has given "Close to Home" the axe. The good news? The show didn't end with a cliffhanger....it ended in such a way that the recent news of a cancellation doesn't really leave people hanging.

I enjoyed this show...but I am not surprised it has been cut. Maybe if it had been given a better night than Friday night at 8...who knows?

The show is done by Jerry Bruckheimer, and airs on CBS, and I can't get enough of the show, which tells the story of a crime each week --- and the resulting trial --- from the view of the prosecuting attorneys, investigators, and various other characters on the show. Season two continued with Annabeth (Jennifer Finnigan's character) dealing with the loss of her husband---while at the same time introducing new characters to the show (David James Elliot and Jon Seda---along with Cress Williams). ...Read more
