Well, tonight is the much touted Jeff Goldblum debut on Law & Order CI.  I've never been a "huge" fan, but have enjoyed some of his work.  I did catch a few episodes of his short-lived TV show a couple of years back, but my favorite role was as the wry and sardonic Dr. Ian Malcolm in "Jurassic Park."  As I recall, he looked pretty good in that film, too...perhaps the best he's ever looked.
I'm not worried that he is here to "replace" Vincent D'Onofrio on the show, and I won't boycott his episodes because USA, et.al., made such a big fuss over his arrival.  Actually, I think USA should have done a "welcoming" campaign similar to what they did for Mary McCormack prior to "In Plain Sight's" debut last year.  Hmm, I wonder what kind of pie Goren would have brought Nichols.
Anyway, the way I look at it...the more people who watch...the higher the ratings, which only increases the likelihood of USA extending the number of seasons I'll be able to ogle a certain tall, darkish, handsome, and extremely charmingly quirky Detective Robert Goren.  I can definitely get on board with that.
For now, here are some "extras" I captioned from "Maledictus."
