Law & Order: Criminal Intent, R.I.P. 26 June 2011
Goodbye, Goren! So long, Eames! Farewell, Criminal Intent! Thanks for the memories!
It wasn’t the flashiest outlet of the enduring franchise — for proof, examine Goren’s (played by the fantastic Vincent D’Onofrio) baby face — but that meant it had to be the most cerebral, and that’s precisely why horseplayers like you and general-knowledge junkies like us found it the most absorbing.
That, and don’t forget that they did a ripped-from-the-headlines episode (“Blink”, original airdate May 4, 2003) centering on the Fix 6 scam at BC 2002 at Arlington, plus Goren was always cracking jokes about the eternal futility of longshot players, given that his dad was one of them! (Truly, he simply didn’t investigate the right kind of longshot players! Touché!)
Bye-bye, Bobby! Adieu, Alexandra! Next time you’re in the area, let’s go to Santa Anita or Hollypark or Del Mar (or even Fairplex!) and hit some 20-1 winners. You’ve earned it.
