TNT Press Release
America's Toughest Crime-Solving Duo Returns June 25 in the Fourth Season of TNT’s Hit Series Rizzoli & Isles, Starring Angie Harmon and Sasha Alexander
This summer, television's hottest crime-solving duo is back with more drama and suspense than ever as TNT’s Rizzoli & Isles returns for its fourth unforgettable season. Angie Harmon and Sasha Alexander star in the chart-busting series that averaged more than 7.5 million viewers last year, making it one of basic cable's Top 3 series of 2012. Season four of TNT's Rizzoli & Isles is set to launch Tuesday, June 25, at 9 p.m. (ET/PT).
Based on characters created by best-selling crime novelist Tess Gerritsen and developed for television by Janet Tamaro, Rizzoli & Isles stars Harmon as Jane Rizzoli, a tough-as-nails Boston police detective, and Alexander as Maura Isles, a smart, impeccably dressed medical examiner from a privileged background. Despite being complete opposites, the two women share an offbeat chemistry, an authentic and deep friendship and a unique working relationship that together, helps them to solve the most complex murder mysteries in the city of Boston.
Rizzoli & Isles also stars Lorraine Bracco as Angela, Jane's meddling mother; Lee Thompson Young as Detective Barry Frost, Jane's squeamish, computer-savvy partner; Bruce McGill as Sgt. Detective Vince Korsak, Jane’s steady old-school Homicide Squad teammate; Jordan Bridges as Jane’s brother, Frankie Jr., who recently achieved his dream of becoming a detective; and Brian Goodman as Lt. Detective Sean Cavanaugh, the head of the Boston Police Detective department.
As Rizzoli & Isles' third season came to an end, Jane tried to convince Casey (guest star Chris Vance) not to go through with a potentially life threatening surgery. Maura decided to anonymously donate her kidney to save a half-sister she barely knows, Cailin, (guest star Emilee Wallace). Meanwhile Tommy (guest star Colin Egglesfield) and Det. Barry Frost are trapped during a building collapse.
This summer, Jane and Maura help each other through more family troubles as they investigate complex and troublesome cases, including a deadly shooting of a state senator, the brutal killing of an young and earnest journalism student and the pending murder trial of Maura's mob-boss father, Paddy Doyle (guest star John Doman).
Rizzoli & Isles comes to TNT from Warner Horizon Television and is executive-produced by Janet Tamaro of Hurdler Productions and Bill Haber of Ostar Productions. Michael Katleman also serves as an executive producer. The series was developed for television by Janet Tamaro, who has earned a Gracie Allen Award from the alliance for Women in Media Foundation, a Women's Image Network (WIN) Award and Prevention magazine's Healthy TV Award for her work on the show.

Brian Goodman
Lt. Detective Sean Cavanaugh
After hitting the streets at age 12, Brian Goodman did whatever he could to survive as one of South Boston’s homeless. An altercation landed him in prison from 1989-1994. He was twice paroled, both of which he violated. One thing that kept him going was the idea he could be an actor. At age 8, he saw the TV movie Brian’s Song and just knew this was something he could do. While in prison, watching a lot of television and movies, he commented to a fellow prisoner, “I’m going to be an actor someday.” After serving his time, he heard about a casting call for a film being shot in Boston. He went in for an audition and was given his first role in Southie, a drama about a South Boston gang starring Donnie Wahlberg.
Parole regulations stipulated he could not leave the state of Massachusetts, so he took it as a divine sign when his next two auditions turned out to be in Boston and garnered him speaking roles in the feature films Snitch (a.k.a. Monument Avenue), directed by the late Ted Demme; and In Dreams, helmed by Neil Jordan.
After completing the terms of his parole, Goodman moved to Los Angeles in 1998 and pursued his acting career, initially playing a lot of golf and gambling. Eventually his fortunes turned, and he landed the role of a “suit-and-tie business-type guy” who kidnaps Jeff Bridges’s character in the film Scenes of the Crime. He also served as technical advisor on the picture. This brought him to the attention of producer Rod Lurie who championed him for a role in his prison drama The Last Castle, starring Robert Redford. Goodman’s prison experience came into play once again through his portrayal of the character Beaupre.
His other features include Steven Spielberg's Catch Me If You Can, Ted Demme's Blow, The Black Rose, Just One Night and the short film Orphan. His television credits include appearances on Boomtown and Thieves.
Goodman’s favorite role is that of being a dad to his sons, Mark and Brian. He works out and enjoys a variety of sports as participant and viewer: tennis, basketball, golf, softball and ice hockey. He resides in Los Angeles.
