Law & Order: Sports Night Unit
As I was channel surfing last night, I ran across an episode of Law & Order featuring a familiar face. "Oh that's...whatshername!" I scrambled for a context and a name. "Dan's girlfriend from Sports Night -- Rebecca!" The flash of recognition was enough to get me to pause and watch the scene play out. "Blah blah blah, something icky," the detective said. "Blah blah your husband will have to meet us at the hospital." And lo and behold sports fans, Dan Rydell rushes into the hospital in the next scene. Seriously.
I'm still trying to figure out the motivation behind this casting decision. The Sports Night 10th Anniversary DVD Set was just released. Is this a marketing tie-in? "See two of your Sports Night favorites reunited! Imagine their marriage, years later when their teenage son turns out be a kindergartner pederast!" *shudder* I miss 1998, when things were simpler.
