Law & Order: Criminal Intent

It's wednesday and that means Law & Order: Criminal Intent on telly.

As police procedurals go few go better. To paraphrase a comment in last weekend's Grauniad Guide (which I can't find online) to picture Detective Robert Goren imagine "Colombo played by Christopher Walken". Vincent D'Onofrio, who plays Goren says

“Bobby Goren takes you through a different story every week,” says D’Onofrio. “Sometimes it’s a ‘who-dunnit’ or sometimes a ‘why-dunnit.’ The fun and interesting thing about our show is that the audience knows things my character doesn’t and, as the story moves along, will realize that I know things that they don’t. The whole story is a game and we all get to play.”

The amazing weird thing about the internet is that you can soon find all you ever wanted needed to know about a fictional character: witness this. There are also sites devoted to those with other interests in Vincent D'Onofrio but I'll leave discussion of that to Rullsenberg.
