Longtime Regulation & Order viewers may be feeling a bit déjà vu seeing Maura Tierney starring as Lt. Jessica Brady this season, because the ER vet additionally performed Patti Blane within the L&O Season 2 episode “Aria.”
“I barely keep in mind that,” Tierney admitted to TV Insider this month. “I bear in mind the story was that my character’s mom pressured my sister into porn, and I needed to testify in opposition to my mother being a stage mother, a porn stage mother.”
Tierney isn’t alone — Jerry Orbach, S. Epatha Merkerson, Annie Parisse, Michael Imperioli, and Camryn Manheim all logged visitor appearances on the NBC procedural earlier than turning into sequence regulars.
And the dozen actors pictured beneath all performed two, three, and even 4 Regulation & Order characters throughout visitor spots. Guess they made an impression with casting brokers!
