It's addicting...
Angie Harmon isn't my fave for ADA. I prefer Jill Hennessey. But Jack McCoy beats Ben Stone hands down.
What I actually find amazing is that with all the talented regular cast, they manage to find great guest stars - and reuse them! In one episode, an actor can be the accused. In the next, he's the attorney defending the bad guy! It's also nice to see that most of the actors have gone to other successes in showbiz. I'm glad they got to use Capt. Cragen on SVU after he was replaced by Lt. Van Buren. And hiring Richard Belcher from Homicide was a great move, too. All of the series manage to have above average writing with people who can act - not bad in today's world of hum drum dramas and reality tv shows.
