Edward "Ed" Green is a fictional character on the NBC crime drama ''Law & Order'', created by René Balcer and portrayed by Jesse L. Martin. He appeared in 202 episodes (198 episodes of ''Law & Order'', two episodes of ''Law & Order: Special Victims Unit'', one episode of ''Law & Order: Criminal Intent'', and one episode of ''Law & Order: Trial by Jury''). ==Character overview== Ed Green is introduced as senior detective Lennie Briscoe's (Jerry Orbach) new junior partner, succeeding Rey Curtis (Benjamin Bratt). Green's willingness to bend legal rules to arrest a suspect does little to endear him to his superiors, and he initially thinks Briscoe is too old to investigate crimes effectively. Green and Briscoe have several heated disagreements about the latter's capabilities. Later, however, Green grows to trust and respect his partner, as well as tone down his unorthodox investigative methods. He and Briscoe often joke about their age difference, as well as Green's Rolex watches and Briscoe's two failed marriages. His badge number is 3472. After they work together on the show for five years, Briscoe retires, and Green is more affected by his retirement than he expected. It takes him a while to warm up to his next partner, Joe Fontana (Dennis Farina), whose style is more abrasive than Briscoe's. However, Green eventually deflates some of the tension between Fontana and their lieutenant, Anita Van Buren (S. Epatha Merkerson). Near the end of Season 15, Green is shot in the line of duty and hospitalized for several weeks. During his absence, he is replaced by Nick Falco (Michael Imperioli). The absence of Green's character from the show was occasioned in the real world by actor Martin's sabbatical to reprise his former Broadway depiction of Tom Collins in the motion picture version of ''Rent''. Green is promoted to senior detective after Fontana retires. He is partnered with Nina Cassady (Milena Govich), over the objections of Van Buren, who thinks Cassady is too inexperienced to be a homicide detective. Initially, Green seems to have a similar opinion, but as time passes, their partnership becomes more solid and they become more relaxed and friendly with one another. Their relationship remains professional, however. After Cassady's departure, Green is next partnered with Cyrus Lupo (Jeremy Sisto). Green's reaction to Lupo is somewhat reserved at first, especially since the first case they work together is the suicide of Lupo's brother. Green is opposed to Lupo's working the case at all, but Van Buren overrules him. However, after a short period of time, Green seems to become more comfortable with Lupo as he does with his other partners. Around mid-season, Green even takes to affectionately dubbing Lupo as "Loops". Mid-way through Season 18, Green is involved in a shooting that leads to his being indicted and tried, though all charges are subsequently dropped. Even though Van Buren assures him that he is welcome back on the force, Green, unhappy with having "broken every rule in the book", decides to leave the squad. Lupo is given Green's position of senior partner, and Detective Kevin Bernard (Anthony Anderson) of the Internal Affairs Bureau, who investigated Green, becomes Lupo's new partner. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ed Green」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
