View Full Version : L&O pipelining 'The Wire' like it used to do 'Oz.'

After seeing Lt. Daniels on CSI Miami, D'Angelo Barksdale on CSI: NY, Ziggy Sabotka on CSI Orig., and of all things Wee-Bey on ER in the past week, I pondered the 'The Wire' pipeline for guest star bits on the L&O franchise. Seemed like there were a lot of them, kind of like L&O had/has with 'Oz.' Then I marked up the appearances of The Wire regulars on the three L&O franchises in the past year, since they ended taping their HBO season. Pretty impressive.

I've just been fascinated with the pipelining phenomenon. It was even more interesting when it was the Oz pipeline, because Vern, Shirley, and Chris Keller were such twisted characters on Oz, and continue to play the side of . . . Law and Order. . . as L&O regulars.
Seems like every person who ever passed through Oz's gates has appeared on the L&O franchise at some point.

Whenever Chris Meloni's character on SVU gets really pissed, he really seems to channel the Keller character.

Last week the woman that played Sister Peter Marie on Oz played a fairly large role in the new SVU episode.

There's 4 Law & Orders, 3 CSI's and 1 Dane McCloud who isn't interested in any of them.

Right now, I'm on the 23rd floor of the W Hotel in Times Square. Does that count?

Ahh..I suppose I shouldn't feel too stupid for not knowing. I do like the original and SVU.

Good Lord... there's four Law & Orders?
There was a 5th that actually followed real criminal cases from inception, through investigation, prep, trial and verdict.
No acting in that one, more of a documentary.

I quit watching L&O a couple of years ago but I have noticed this lately on CSI. It was really bizarre seeing the Lieutenant and Bubbles both on CSI Miami.

Odd.

I was thinking about a "Eric Stoltz is the new Kevin Bacon" thread...

Seriously, Stoltz has been in every fuggen thing you can think of...
