What a great character he was.




Oh no, I did not know that. He left the show last year...I guess it was for health reasons. I just loved him in L&O.

He also played Baby's dad in Dirty Dancing...as well as numerous other roles.

No, Ice-T is on Special Victims Unit, Jerry Orbach was on the original Law and Order. He was Benjamin Bratt's partner, then Jesse L. Martin's.

I saw the news today when I was trying to find out about a fire in the old Sun Times building in Chicago. I love that show and he was so very good on it. Sad to hear.

State of confusion
I was just watching a re-run last night with him on it. Also Dirty Dancing was on on Monday while I was on vacation and I watched that too! Very sad.

Way, way south.
Good actor. He was unbelievably believable as a human being on there. Rest in Peace, God Speed Jerry.

Great Actor: Cancer is a horrible disease!

The spin off was to be called Law and Order "Trail by Jury".

That's two big celebrities who have died this week... who will be the third?

Hate to see him go, but not as much as I hated to see the world lose it's Minister of Defense.

The third appears to be Artie Shaw. Most of the youngsters out there won't know him but he was a great swing bandleader that played clarinet.

I teared up when I heard about Jerry. I loved watching him. Tonight on tv the said the new show will go on and the will show the three episodes he already filmed.

It's hard to watch the re runs and know he's gone. It's very sad. I am a big fan of Jerry's!

Some youngsters do know who Artie Shaw was! (At least this 28 year old does) Tho' I have to admit I had thought he had already passed on...

Same here, watched one last nite. My sister summed it up when she sent me and email about it and said simply "he WAS the show."
