There is definitely a connection between HBO and Law and Order. There are tons of actors from Oz who appear in one of the L&O franchises.

That song was great.
That show is very funny. Al Bundy has quite the clan on that show.
And quite the wife :wink:

Homicide. Great show at the time.

That also puts The Wire in the Tommy Westphall Universe.
