Looks like ION is going to run the series again!
On Friday, 18 July 2014, ION is showing "To the Boy in the Blue Knit Cap" and "One" in sequence. They're going to do some jumping around from year to year, but it's been a long time since I've seen "One" and "Art" which were, as you know, the first two episodes of CI. I love what IMDB has done about letting us know ahead of time which episodes are coming up. They list another channel which I am not familiar with - WGNAMR? There may be others, depending on which cable or satellite service you have.
I know you already know this, but just in case there are some newbys out there, just look up Law & Order: Criminal Intent and click on a year. 2001 doesn't show up automatically, but you can find it by clicking on the word "more."
It will list every episode in that season and the black & white logo with the
triangle inside a broken circle is what you click on to find out when each episode will be aired again - day, time & channel. Check back occasionally to find out whether anything has changed.
I have absolutely adored Vincent D'Onofrio since "Adventures in Babysitting"
and "Full Metal Jacket." What a contrast! I saw an interview with Barry Sonnenfeld and Tommy Lee Jones in which they were talking about "Men in Black" in general, but when they brought up the subject of how to direct an actor to play a giant cockroach, Sonnenfeld was rolling on the floor! Tommy Lee had to explain that they had no earthly idea what to tell him! He was on his own! And what a fantastic job he did! He really is a chameleon because he puts so much thought into every move, every word. There are not many actors who can turn in a performance as beautifully nuanced as he can. What a treasure!
It hurts me to see the difference in the opening sequence where the lead actors are walking out of One Police Plaza as the theme music plays. In 2001, he was walking straight and tall. Ten years later, his knees are in terrible shape. He has lost about 2 inches in height. He needs to lose weight, dammit! I want this man to be strong and healthy so that I can enjoy watching his work without being fearful about his health.
I am glad that there are so many CI fans out there. Have you noticed that we don't seem to attract trolls? That speaks well for us and for the show!
