Major Crimes (things that shoulda been)
I donât know how to do a âunder the cutâÂ
So, if you need to avoid a spoiler for Major Crimes (which finished in 2017 or 2018, I forget⊠time is really mussy in my head right now)
TheeeeeeeeeeeenâŠ. take the title and these sentences as a cue to start scrolling away to avoid it :) (iâll also make sure to tag it as such)
ON THAT NOTE, letâs roll.  Spudmeisterin and I were talking about the ending, and how bloody bad/lazy writing it was.  so hereâs some points we came up with.
(i realize they wanted to be dramatic and surprising, but they missed the mark) What would be more surprising, is if they allowed Sharon Raydor to retire happily.  (because killing women for peopleâs pain so they can finish the impossible task, as well as âclose to retirement so must dieâ and also âiâm happy/just married so must dieâ tropes are justâŠ.so rife. just soooo rife)
She had the same heart thing (ouch) cuz, letâs face it⊠life can do that. Whether or not she needed the transplant or was put on a pacemaker and a severe restriction on her job choices/retirement choices, Iâll leave that up to you.
Either way, sheâs out for that part of the season. The rest of the team nails Stroh the cartoon villain serial killer. yada yada.
They come back to her hospital room after Stroh is shot.  Andy is there, as well as Provenza, Julio, Rusty, and Amy.
Sharon is like, âdid you get him?â (meaning, did you catch the bastid etc)
Provenza does his littleâŠkinda look down sheepish and is like, captain we had to shoot him. I shot him.
And Andy chimes in like, âreally, he totally did itâ.
Which causes Sharon to do that all knowing, âMmm.â
(she knows that Provenza didnât do it, but she doesnât care. Stroh is done, everyoneâs healthy/safe/accounted for.)
they do the usual happy banter, then the nurse is like, sheâs still got a long road to recovery, everyone out, she needs rest.
Sharon Raydor retires Officially. (so does Andy)Â Â They had some awful close calls, and they want to enjoy their worlds, and the time they have left.
That doesnât mean that they donât do occasional consulting (kinda like alexa crowe in âmy life is murderâ)
It should be noted that Provenza is unlikely to retire until he literally cannot anymore.. Â Heâs absolutely running the Major Crimes unit.
Rusty becomes a proper DA (working with Hobbs, instead of just interning)
Sharon and Andy embarrass (cutely) the hell out of Rusty at his wedding. (i canât decide if he gets back together with Gus, or he finds someone else along his healing journey. The writers really just flung their story all over the place)
anyhoo. itâs cute. much goofy dancing.
Provenza gives Best man speech, and Rusty hides his face in his hands on the table.
(ooo. the night before, part of the bachelor party, the gang goes axe throwing. Julio and Amy clean up on the bets (but which one wins between them?)
Some times, Sharon, Andy, Rusty, his hubs, Provenza and Patrice, go to disneyland. itâs a retiree thing/family thing.  They love the really freaking weird rides. Patrice has a special hat made for Provenza saying âLouieâ. He grumbles at first, but accepts that Heâs wearing it, because Patrice is wearing hers ^,^
He wonât go to Disneyworld though, because California is superior (or heâs a grump, itâs hard to say which)
and because it sounds about right to me, Sharon and Andy make it somewhere into their 80âČs.Â
If anyone else wants to add to some of the ridiculous antics, feel free. And spuds, I think i forgot a point or two, feel free to add ^,^
