Gothamist hero and uber-producer Dick Wolf is developing comedy shows. He tells Variety that though comedies are a priority at Wolf Films, he's not going to be cranking out typical fare; rather, he is interested in comedies can fit with the L&O brand. "If we had produced (a comedy like ABC's) 'The Job,' I don't think anyone would have said anything about that," Wolf says.
Sweet fancy Moses, Dick, bring it on. It's always funny when McCoy gets that perturbed look when Skoda tells him the defendent is indeed insane. Or just Profaci in general. And how can we ignore the Briscoe opening one-liner? Gothamist is thinking Fall Season, 2004-2005, but would rather mid-season replacement this season. Also, how about a live studio audience at Silvercup or Kaufman-Astoria? Or be one of the first to film at the Brooklyn Navy Yard studios? Your call, man.

Why not make a sitcom cast around the civilians who seem to pop up in every episode. Aren't you fascinated by what they're doing when they aren't obstructing an investigation?
"Law and Order: The bickering couple that discovers the body at the beginning of the episode get their own series"
"Law and Order: 'Now, if you'll excuse me officers, I have a business to run.'"
He could steal from the Buffy milieu and do an episode of "Law & Order: The Musical Comedy". We know Orbach could handle it. Maybe the premise could be Skoda accidentally getting injected with something while trying to medicate a patient - he then hallucinates an entire amusing episode of L&O, with feeling!
I love love love the idea about L&O spin-offs about tertiary characters. THe poor security staff at Hudson University, where there are so many murders as well as so many murderers.
And I want Jerry Orbach to break into song on L&O someday. As well as Jesse L. Martin. Maybe Paige Davis (Trading Spaces host, also was in touring company of Beauty and the Beast) needs to guest as a suspect who challenges Briscoe and Green to a sing-off.
Medical Examiner Rodgers: "Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go and remove a javelin from some guy's chest."
Lenny Brisco: "Sometimes I wonder why you like this job."
Rodgers: "Free javelins!"
p.s. y'all should start a separate Law & Order blog...
Just bring back The Job. That was the best freakin' show, cop or otherwise. And the funniest.
