I watch this all the tie on A&E I can't remember a show I didn't like, and all the great actors involved in that show. Also it's funny the link to OZ that show has the 2guys that are on SVU, and oz O'Reilly, and Chris (?) Beechers boyfriend. Also Schilinger is the psych. in the newer episodes. I think I remember another. Also the Homocide crossovers were great too.

I was also addicted to the reruns that aired on A&E. It didn't help that they are aired 4 times a day! I was able to watch them last year during college. I am in Law and Order withdrawal now.

Well A&E shows 4 shows a day but the afternoon and early evening shows are usually the same, and the late evening and early morning shows are also the same. So that means u only miss two shows really. Either way, I am an addict as well, and would love some more cases involving mob members. Those were the best.

What I like is everytime they change a cast member, someone else comes on whos just as good. Except the new ones without Adam I don't like the chick all that much the plays the new DA.

There was talk a while back that Weist was unhappy with the work schedule, and was considering leaving. Not sure what's up now; I haven't been to the L&O NG in some while......

Law and Order is clearly one of the greatest shows ever. I agree that every time they change a cast member, they seem to get an even better replacement. My favorite cast of all time would have to be:

Sam Waterston
Jerry Orbach
Chris Noth
Claire(I can't remember her real name)

Since I work second shift I get to watch the syndicated ones every day when I eat lunch before going to work. The cool thing is that the show still has a lot of life left in it. I can't really see them ever running out of new material.

Chris Noth was awesome on that show, the Logan character was great, a lot cooler than the goody two shoes "I am a family man" character that was played by Benjamin Bratt, and more likable than that guy who use to be on Ally Mcbeal.

And I thought I was the only one. When I was unemployed, I started watching it. Now I am hooked on the reruns and the new shows. I had to flip the other night during the grammy's, and after the first 10 minutes I just stuck with L&O.

It's cool to see cast members appear on the show BEFORE they were cast members. I remember episodes where Lt. Van Buren was drud addict mother, and the first Asst. DA, I forget his name - the one with Moriarty - was a crackhead. Then I recently saw one where Jerry Orbach was a defense attorney.

The cast has always been excellent, but Sam Waterston's Jack McCoy has to be my favorite character to date.

Law & Order nirvana = holidays when A&E runs their L&O marathons.

I really like this series. There is always enough material for a good show. The cast has been wonderful, even when changes have taken place.
