D'Onfrio, Erbe and Bogosian leaving Criminal Intent

He still needs to say, "Take a deal!"

 

Hargitay and Meloni signed two-year deals, so they're in place through next season.

My only SVU complaint: Why couldn't they just bring back Stephanie March for the whole season?

 

D'Onfrio has become bigger, unkempt, etc. because it's called method acting. He's reflecting his character's changes.

 

I feel sorry for Chris Noth. Screwed over twice by the same people.

 

D'Onofrio is a frackin' genius. Love him and Erbe paired on CI. For those who don't know D'Onofrio's other work, look up the episode of "Homicide: Life on the Street" where he plays a commuter caught between a subway train and the platform. Unbelievable.

 

It's in season 6. It's fucking amazing.

 

I kind of prefer D'Onofrio in Full Metal Jacket or The Player. The guy refuses to do ordinary work and I respect that.

 

Full Metal Jacket defines him; Men in Black too, tremendous.
Erbe, meanwhile, has What About Bob

 

I kind of feel like all of the Law and Orders are going to be on cable within the next year or two. If the Leno experiment works, there's no room for them on NBC.

It will be interesting to see how SVU does at 9 p.m. Personally, I don't think a show that dark should be on that early, but it's worked for Criminal Minds.

 

I keep waiting for L&O Network to show up on my DirecTV. I'd watch more hours of that than any other channel.

 

Has to happen, or just rename USA Network
