Leonard W. "Lennie" Briscoe is a fictional character on NBC's long-running police procedural and legal drama television series ''Law & Order''. He was created by Walon Green and René Balcer, and was portrayed by Jerry Orbach. He was featured on the show for 12 seasons, from 1992 to 2004; making him one of the longest-serving main characters in the series' 20-year-run history, as well as the longest-serving police detective on the show. He also appeared in three ''Law & Order'' spin-offs, and was part of the original cast of ''Law & Order: Trial by Jury'', appearing in only the first two episodes due to Orbach's death. He appears in 282 episodes (273 episodes of ''Law & Order'', two episodes of ''Law & Order: Trial by Jury'', one episode of ''Law & Order: Criminal Intent'', three episodes of ''Law & Order: Special Victims Unit'', and three episodes of ''Homicide: Life on the Street''), the TV movie ''Exiled'' and the ''Law & Order'' video games ''Dead on the Money'', ''Double or Nothing'', ''Justice is Served'' and ''Legacies''. Orbach's performance as Briscoe on the New York-based series was so popular that it resulted in him being declared a "Living Landmark" by the New York Landmarks Conservancy, along with fellow longtime series cast member Sam Waterston (who portrayed the law prosecutor Jack McCoy on the show).〔().

His superior officer during his first season on the show is Capt. Donald Cragen (Dann Florek); a year later, Lt. Anita Van Buren (S. Epatha Merkerson) takes over the 27th Squad. He was previously assigned as a detective in the 116th Det. Squad in Queens. Briscoe joins the squad after Det. Mike Logan's (Chris Noth) partner, Sgt. Phil Cerreta (Paul Sorvino), is shot by a black market arms dealer and transfers to a desk job in another precinct. After Logan is transferred to Staten Island in 1995, Det. Rey Curtis (Benjamin Bratt) becomes Briscoe's partner. Four years later, Curtis goes into early retirement to take care of his multiple sclerosis–stricken wife, and he is replaced by Det. Ed Green (Jesse L. Martin) in 1999. 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「Lennie Briscoe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
