Law & Order: Trial by Jury

Add to My Shows

"Eros in the Upper Eighties" is the only episode of this show that remains unaired.
In Jerry Orbach's last episode, he was so sick he was barely able to speak. In one scene they pulled back and added his voice later. In another scene, they changed it so he "had" to whisper, since his voice couldn't get any louder.
The following statement appears at the beginning of each episode: "In the criminal justice system, all defendants are innocent until proven guilty. Either by confession, plea bargain, or trial by jury. This is one of those trials."
This is the last film project for Jerry Orbach.
By the end of this episode, Jerry Orbach was so sick he could barely speak. In one scene they pulled back and added his voice later. Also, the verdict scene was rewritten so that all the dialog had to be whispered so that the Briscoe character could be featured. To explain this unusual use of the handicam perspective, the 'walkout' scene was added where the judge bars uniformed officers from being present in the courtroom after the police leave in protest.
Jerry Orbach's last project. Episode #1.6, "Eros in the Upper Eighties", was the last episode filmed before he died (28 December 2004).
This was the continuation of "Law & Order" (1990) {Tombstone (#15.20)}.
