WendyCR72 April 25, 2016 Share April 25, 2016 I searched and searched but didn't see a thread for this - so I was proactive and made one. I live near the Albany, NY area, and my local CBS affiliate is currently showing Elementary in syndication. Lo and behold, I heard a very familiar, distinctive voice. Richard Brooks is on as a police detective! Even sporting a mustache. Hee. The show tends to have some actors from the franchise (the aforementioned Brooks and Kathryn Erbe [CI] that I've seen so far - maybe more) or other non-regular cast/guest-starring actors who have appeared on any of the given 3 L&O shows over time. Pretty neat. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/42367-hey-i-know-you-lo-actors-in-other-roles/

shapeshifter July 10, 2023 Share July 10, 2023 (edited) I’m currently working my way through the 16 episodes of Jerry Orbach’s one-season show, “The Law and Harry McGraw.” It was a failed spin-off of the returning character Orbach played in Murder She Wrote. The first few episodes are a bit lacking in character and plot development, but it seems to improve around episode 6, with Orbach’s charm being permitted to shine through. It’s not officially streaming or on any network, but maybe MeTV or one of the other subsidiaries will pick it up during the writers strike. Just watched episode 8. There’s a LOL bit when the straight laced main character lady decides she has to Spoiler fire a gun.
