Jerry Orbach is dead. Damn. EDIT: See what other folks are saying about Jerry Orbach…and there’s plenty of links to trivia, filmographies, the now-famous L&O coloring book, and much more.

  3. I just heard that on CNN… terrible news. I loved him on Law & Order.

  4. This made me so sad. Even my kids (who are 13 and 15) were saddened by the news of his passing. We are all fans of L&O, and especially fans of his. Godspeed to him.

  5. He was one of my favorites. I saw an old clip of him once in a Broadway musical, “Guys & Dolls” I think it was. He was quite the song & dance man before coming over to tv….which you wouldn’t think from his character on L&O. I will sure miss watching him.

  6. I loved his “one liners” at the opening of each show. It was a small sign that the show was not to be taken too literally, even for a gripping crime drama.

    And also, kudos to him for his dad role in Dirty Dancing…I always thought it an understated and underappreciated performance.
