I love Law and Order. I am a bit of a Law and Order junkie. I once explained to my wife that I love the show because it has both law and order. I don't just love the new episodes on Wednesday nights on NBC. I thoroughly enjoy watching old episodes that I have already watched. I love Arthur Branch, Lennie Briscoe, Adam Schiff, Lt. Van Buren, Ed Green, Serena Southerlyn...all of them...most especially Jack McCoy. I once vowed to vote for Fred Thompson for President of the United States just because I wanted out national anthem to change to the theme song from Law and Order.
At some point in my childhood, Law and Order reached syndication and began airing on TNT on an almost around the clock basis. If I turned on the tv at any time of the day, there was at least a 75% chance that Law and Order would be on. It was glorious.
The Hatred Begins
A couple of years ago while TNT was covering the NBA playoffs, I noticed that the promos for TNT ("We Know Drama") were filled with clips from an up-and-coming new show called "The Closer". Silly me...I imagine that the show would be about baseball. So gone were the promos for Law and Order, and replacing them were plugs for a show with a stupid name showing some dumb blonde from NYC trying to use a countrified accent in a show about law.
The commercials became so frequent that I already hated the show before it had aired its premiere. It was at this point that I started to hate the star of the show, Kyra Sedgwick.
The most notable part of Kyra Sedgwick is that she is married to Kevin Bacon. I wonder how many degrees of separation he would like to have after having to watch her dumb tv show?
I Hate You, Kyra Sedgwick and I Hope Fall Off a Cliff
Kyra Sedgwick once said, "It's an unattainable goal to be good at everything." What I think she meant to say was, "It's an unattainable goal for me to be good at anything."
On second thought, Kyra Sedgwick is good at a few things.
A list....
- Being ugly
- Having no talent
- Having a mouth bigger than the joker
- Using a fake accent
- 'Starring' on a show that sucks
- Having a stupid name (first and last)
In Conclusion
To me, Kyra Sedgwick is the single most annoying celebrity on the planet. No other women makes me cringe like Kyra. Hopefully, sometime around the NBA playoffs, some tv show will come around with a better looking star to replace 'The Closer'. Until then, I remain vigilant.

i hate law and order. it has taken over tv. instead of turning on the tv and having a 75% chance of seeing Law and Order, it should be like... 75% chance of seeing The Actors Studio with that guy that looks like Frankenstein. I'd rather spend my hard earned tv hours on Frankenstein then Law and Order and that dumb ass soundtrack.
i prefer law and order svu. at least there is no waste. they don't spend half of their time on "law" and half on "order". they can use a full hour for sexually based offenses that are considered especially heinous. worst part about law and order is that they think an actor who "starred" in kangaroo jack can be believable as a cop!
I think by far the best part about Law and Order is Ice-T. Its so ironic that hes on a tv show playing a cop, even though he used to rap about killing them. I think he lost all his street cred when he decided to become a cop on tv, but hes still a bad ass in my heart.
Fortunately for you, it doesn't look like you'll be watching much TNT in the spring. The way things are going, it doesn't look like the Pistons are going to be hanging around too long in the playoffs.
I know I am late on this one... call me a slacker as I have been vacationing but I have to agree with Shannon... SVU is the best. Heinous crimes beat out the "order" every time. Who needs order when you have super creepy people molesting children and hot ex-marines kicking ass? That's what I thought. I do agree that Kyra is horrid though so you have my support there. Closer shomoser.
Although I love Law and Order just as much as you do...by the way there was a marathon today...I also happen to love The Closer. And I am sure if you gave it two seconds you would love it as well. Just because Lennie was not on TNT during the NBA playoffs does not mean you have to hate The Closer. P.S. TNT just started an new season of a show called Trust Me which stars one of your favorite people...Ed, although without Carol Vessy I am sure it is not the same for you.
Agreed!!! Kyra Sedgwick is the fugliest most untalented woman on this planet!! She literally looks like a ffriggin troll or the product of a human/lizard cross breeding experiment!! How in the hell she EVER got a role in anything is a mystery to me!! She couldn't possibly have sexed her way to a role!! She has no talent!! WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED???!!!
I can't stand her either. I imagine being able to just put an entire raw turkey in her gigantic mouth lmao!

Provenza, Flynn, Sanchez and Tao are all incredible characters. I'm not a fan of Kyra, but that's just me... Check out Major Crimes. It the same fantastic show, same cast playing the same characters but without Kyra. She's instead replaced with the phenomenal Mary McDonnell. Its insane how good of a show The Closer could have been if they'd used Mary instead, and that's what Major Crimes is.
