Jerry Orbach RIP

Jerry Orbach died yesterday.

As a Law and Order fan, I'll miss the wry Lenny Briscoe.

This is how I think we should remember him.

I do find this passage of the story disturbing:

Earlier this year, he announced plans to switch from Law — and its frequent 14-hour shooting days — to a supporting role, still as Briscoe, on the crime franchise's fourth edition, Trial by Jury, which is due on NBC in March.

But he had completed only a few episodes before beginning intensive chemotherapy this fall. (His role will be recast.)


They really don't need to recast the role of Briscoe, if that's what they are planning. There is no other Briscoe than Orbach.
