Jerry Orbach's main career ambition was to play a cop on TV-he tried to get his own spinoff show from Murder, She Wrote playing a Boston PI who's basically Lenny Briscoe but younger and campier
Dick Wolf has a boat in North East Harbor Maine. I’ve seen it coming in and out of the Harbor piloted by Dickie boy. The boat looks combo of a Vietnam PR boat & the 2001 monolith. It’s incredibly massive & very ugly (in the same way the cybertruck is) and I love how these shows paid for it.
I honestly love the Ben Stone episodes, and I can't stand McCoy. The "early season simpsons" comparison is spot on about how it feels like a different era, like watching a toddler learn to walk, and then him getting down on his hands and feet and scuttling off like a lizardman.
This was such a disappointing episode for me. They are so off-base about criminal intent. The later years are trash but the first five years or so are just gold TV. And then when Felix says it’s middlebrow, he’s wrong. Criminal intent was the most highbrow one. So much so that they had to dumb it down in the later seasons to try and make it like the USA TV that the guys talk about here. But those first five years were just perfect. Also, SVU is the most basic one, it’s not even middle brow, it’s low brow, and it’s for basic bitches.
SVU is most popular because it's salacious, it's sexual crimes, it's so much more interesting. Especially the podiatry, it's really taboo. But it is absolutely low brow. In the 2000's, non-western cultures were portrayed as extremely backwards, mysoginistic, reapy basically. And the show had a very clear stance on porn as not just an inferior form of work but an entire edifice of moral decay. Which it is to a degree, but there's no episode where sex workers are a type of employee, it's really black and white. Yes there is coercion and violence and exploitation, but it's possible to be in that industry and just be cashing your paycheques. SVU always portrayed it as an absolute evil and anyway I just thought that was interesting. As a teenager bingeing on this show for weeks at a time, even I picked up on that.
Seriously want all these in Internet Archives soon. This series aged alot better since when it was attempted.
They are, Google it and you’ll find I think all 20 episodes.
Matt, the king hasth yet to return, king?

They keep saying "serialized" when they're talking about the show's episodic nature.
Tactical Jerry Orbach.
Keep uploading fam
When did this come out, because there literally was a mission in MW2019 where you're defending a besieged US embassy like Felix said lol
Agree with all the other commentators, it's great getting to re-listen to all these old episodes.
Thank you for your service 🫡
Upvote if you have made a physical copy to listen to on fine vinyl?
This is a genuinely evil production that i got sooooop addictef to. Felixs opening is so spot on
Psych was Hillarious though
You don't start with Briscoe and Green! You start with Briscoe and Logan! Jesus!

Their standards of what -brow something might be are skewed somewhat by being new york podcast hipsters, true.
This is so generous to Criminal Intent that Criminal Intent is about to try an suck you off

Naw. Criminal intent sucks
It’s thoroughly middlebrow because it casts a wide net.
Hated the main guy on criminal intent
D'onofrio is a great actor but I don't know what the fuck he was going for with that character.
@@KermitFrog yeah. He was ass. I thought he was the dude who played hulk for the longest so I hated hi, too
