I have to say, I gave up on Law & Order a few years back but in its heyday, it was one of my favorites. Always with great little stories and solid acting from an awesome cast.
Why did I stop watching? It was kind of like ER for me…the show had just run its course and I felt I had gotten enough crime stories to make me never miss NOT watching the show. ER was the same…you can only see so many emergency hospital explosions or people cut in half before you’ve seen it all.
Sort of like giving up CSI this year. I think I’ve seen about all I need to.
Well, if you still like the show and watch it, it’s back on tonight at 9pm EST on NBC. Sam Waterston, who I really enjoy, will be moving to district attorney, while two newbie named Linus Roche and Jeremy Sisto join the team. Sisto will be one of the detectives, while Roche is part of the law team.
After having seen what a great job Sisto did in Waitress earlier this year, and with the lack of anything good on television, I may just have to check it out. If you want to read a bit more about the new cast, visit NBC.com.
