Law & Order - Season 3
The third season of Law & Order saw yet another cast change, in mid-season this time. Paul Sorvino gave way to Jerry Orbach in the ninth episode, who began his twelve season run as Det. Lennie Briscoe. The role of Lennie Briscoe was actually Orbach's second role on the show, having first appeared as a lawyer in Season 2. This would not be a rare occurrence, as many subsequent cast members would appear as guests before joining the regular cast. Carolyn McCormick, who had been a semi-regular as Dr. Elizabeth Olivet since the start of Season 2, was tacked onto the ending of the opening credits, since she didn't really fall into either the "Law" or the "Order" side.
