Anthony Anderson: TV Guide News

Cheers: Upholding the Law | Cheers & Jeers | 5/1/2008
Cheers to Law & Order for surviving another cast change without missing a beat. NBC's venerable drama has now replaced fully half its ensemble in less than a year, and the newest addition, Anthony Anderson, fits like a glove. (It's no surprise, considering he's worked both sides of the law as a cop on K-Ville and a drug kingpin on The Shield.) As Detective Kevin Bernard, a by-the-book Internal Affairs vet, Anderson brings a heft to L&O's first half-hour not seen since the days of George Dzundza and Paul Sorvino. But I'd expect nothing less from an actor who can handle roles in everything from The Departed to Kangaroo Jack.• For a review of Robin Williams on Law & Order: SVU, check out the latest Cheers & Jeers vodcast. • Share your own raves and rants about other shows on the Reader Cheers & Jeers discussion board.• We may feature your Cheer or Jeer on TVGuide.com or in TV Guide magazine! read more
Will Anthony Anderson Bring New Order to Law & Order? | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 4/23/2008
After the cancellation of this fall's New Orleans-set cop show K-Ville, Anthony Anderson headed north to join NBC's venerable Law & Order (Wednesdays at 10 pm/ET, NBC). The formerly funny actor (Kangaroo Jack, anyone?) plays Detective Kevin Bernard, who will replace Ed Green (the departing Jesse L. Martin) and partner up with Cyrus Lupo (Jeremy Sisto). Tonight marks Anderson's first episode — and Martin's last. TVGuide.com: What was your first week on the Law & Order set like?Anthony ... read more
Out of Order: Jesse L. Martin Calls It Quits | Today's News: Our Take | 2/21/2008
After nine years of playing Det. Ed Green (and after many months of speculation), Jesse L. Martin is expected to leave NBC's Law & Order. Sources tell the Hollywood Reporter that Martin, who had originally signed on for at least 13 episodes this season, will film one more show in which his alter ego is written off the canvas. Perhaps filling the void left by Martin will be Anthony Anderson, who is said to be in final talks to join L&O. Anderson (most recently of Fox's short-lived K-Ville) would play a new detective partnered with Jeremy Sisto's Lupo.Related:• Movie news: Jesse L.

Episode Recap: "Bedfellows" | K-Ville | 10/2/2007
Was it just me or did this episode seem more complex? I took more notes tonight than I have previously and I’m not afraid to agree with the majority of you and say this show is getting better. I might be showing a past loyalty to writer Lawrence Kaplow, who used to write for House, one of my favorite shows. He cowrote this episode and I felt like he and his cowriter really elevated the material.The case: Ex-DA and current city councilman Clay Beelman is pulled from the water. A Tiffany blue fingernail is the only piece of evidence Boulet and Cobb have to try to identify his alleged attacker. Said fingernail belongs to call girl Laine Rogers. Boulet and Cobb storm the brothel in search of Laine only to find out she’s on a house call. One of the hookers they do find in the house, Sarah Rogate, has a connection to Captain Embry. Cobb thinks the Captain has something going on the side until Boulet tells him the captain lost his wife six years ago to cancer. But what is his... read more
Episode Recap: "Cobb's Web" | K-Ville | 9/25/2007
The case: Three inmates from OPP, the prison in which Cobb was once incarcerated, have escaped. The team is enlisted to help round up the fugitives and bring them back to jail.The complications: Two of the three escaped convicts are recaptured quickly, but they're killed before Cobb and Boulet can question them. Their case is further compromised when deputy Carlsson tries to kill the third convict, Tim Dunlevy. One thing is certain: He had help from the outside in planning his escape. The resolution: Warden Deville has been loaning out prisoners on work detail to illegally dump toxic sludge from drilling. Dunlevy knows Deville’s secret and is certain he'll be killed if he is taken back to jail. Dunlevy is allowed to escape, and the team recovers damning evidence of Deville's illegal business endeavors.There were some exciting developments in this episode. Cobb and Boulet are getting to know each other better and as a result are working cases much more efficiently. And their... read more
