What the NBC and Vivendi-Universal Merger Means to Us

Sure, the merger between NBC and Vivendi Universal means lots of things, like Robert Wright FINALLY becoming a media mogul ("Mogul moment" and implications of "media mogul envy" in the Times article about the deal made us laugh), NBC will finally have a movie studio to be affiliated with and Edgar Bronfman is out of luck, but what Gothamist is more concerned with the fact that Law & Order, an NBC staple, is produced by Universal. For starters, we're thinking a Law & Order ride at Universal Studios - park visitors stumble across a body and their guide/detective leads them around a mini-New York, chasing the perp and ends in trial room.

No criminal worth his salt would dump a body in Riverside Park with the river so close by. Whenever I'm on the Jersey City waterfront, I always look down at the rocks below, to see if anybody's washed up there.

There has been an episode of L&O where the body was found in Riverside Park, around 72nd Street, pre-Trump Riverside Boulevard development, circa Benjamin Bratt's turn at Det. Rey Curtis. Anyway, whenever I'm in Riverside Park, I wonder where the bodies are.

Law & Order Ride. Fantabulous.

Sign me up for the Law & Order theme park. After watching a lot of yesterday's marathon a few friends and I decided to take a walk through Riverside Park. We spent the whole time checking the underbrush expecting to find a cadaver. It was just too perfect a setup.
