Jerry Orbach died this morning, age 69, of prostate cancer. I loved his work. Who else do you know who could be the hard-boiled Lennie Briscoe (Law and Order) AND Lumiere the French Candlestick (Beauty and the Beast)?
R.I.P., Mr. Orbach. I will miss you.
He was my favorite actor -- I used to run a Jerry Orbach website.
Really? How cool. We watched Law and Order for Lennie most of all. And I loved him on Murder She Wrote as well.
After I became a fan of his on L&O I wished I'd watched his Murder She Wrote spinoff back during my fifth grade year.
