Why does this always happens to smart, well-written dramas?  This should have gone on for years more.  I loved the torn-from-the-headlines stories and the amazing Glenn Close, plus all the guest actors over the years — Ted Danson, Ryan Phillippe, Tate Donovan, Victor Garber, Martin Short, Zjelko Ivanek, Michael Nouri, and more.  Even Rose Byrne’s ONE expression didn’t get in the way!  And Glenn’s Cruella de Ville impression as the final image was perfect!!!  Thank you, DirecTV, for the extra seasons.
