Trivia / Law & Order: LA

aka: Law And Order Los Angeles

• Fake American: Alfred Molina is British.
• Fake Nationality: Again, Alfred Molina, who is of Italian-Spanish descent, playing as the Mexican-American Detective Ricardo Morales.
• Recast as a Regular: Counting only those who are recast as main characters here.
  • Alfred Molina played a perp of the week on the Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Law & Order: Trial by Jury Crossover before being cast as Ricardo Morales.
  • Corey Stoll appeared as one-shot character in the parent series before being cast as Tomas Jaruszalski.
• Screwed by the Network: Sure, the ratings weren't that great, but what with being constantly shuffled around, going through a mid-season Retool (after which ratings improved) and then showing the episodes out of order so that the end-of-season Cliffhanger played right in the middle of the season made a lot of fans think that NBC never gave the show a chance.
