Tenney, who also appeared on ‘The Closer’ alongside Kyra Sedgwick’s Brenda Leigh Johnson as her husband, will pop up as Agent Fritz Howard, the main liaison between the LAPD and FBI.

Back to ‘Major Crimes,’ Berenger will also be back as Capt. Jack Raydor, the estranged but endearing husband to Mary McDonnell’s Sharon Raydor. Fans will also see Brochtrup return as Dr. Joe Bowman, Rusty’s therapist, and Warner as Lt. Chuck Cooper, an undercover officer who helped catch the killer who targeted Rusty.

As for Doherty, Mazur and Daly, they’ll also make appearances as Coroner’s Investigator Kendall, DDA Andrea Hobbs and Richard “Dick” Tracy, the wannabe detective originally portrayed on the fifth season of ‘The Closer,’ respectively.
