“I do want you to know that it was not at all my idea, nor did I want to leave the show,” James Duff wrote on Facebook after TNT’s announcement that The Closer spinoff will end with the upcoming sixth season. He ended the note by adding cryptically, “We’ll have a chance to talk about what happened in the near future. Meanwhile, we are determined to give you the best season we can. So sorry I couldn’t stop this moment from happening.” Mary McDonnell posted on Instagram that “this was not a surprise. The writing was clearly on the wall.”
