  • Wow, I like Jeff Goldblum. He's a good actor, but I don't think he can replace Chris North. Chris North is very good as Nick Logan in Criminal Intent. I love Criminal Intent. He will be greatly miss! Great story. :)

  • I have been watching Chris Noth as Detective Mike Logan on one or the other Law and Orders since their inceptions. I don't seem Jeff Goldblum replacing him, but we will see. Will not stop watching the show because of the change.

    p.s. Hey, Jensen69 - It's Mike Logan, not Nick Logan!

    • GET THIS GARBAGE OFF THE SITE! I HATE ADS FOR ED. THIS IS A PRIVATE PROBLEM AND YET EVERY TIME I TURN AROUND I'M HEARING ABOUT MEN WHO NEED A PILL TO "PERFORM." SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE TO REMOVE THESE DISGUSTING ADS FROM THE TV, RADIO, EMAIL, MAGAZINES, ETC.

  • I have watched the Chris Noth character (Nick Logan) from the very beginning of Law and Order & was delighted when he appeared on Criminal Intent as a more mature detective. He will be missed!

  • I love Chris North as Mike Logan on CI I wish he wasnt leaving... but if he is... Maybe they could replace him with Benjamin Bratt and make is partner Alicia Witt that would be a great combination...

  • Chris, YES. Jeff, NO. There goes Law & Order: CI. Like to see Chris go back to Law & Order, but I guess that would be a "demotion" from major case. Liked him and Jerry together. Those were good shows. Don't know where Chris is going but I'll miss seeing him on Law & Order.

  • How about "Mike" Logan, not Nick Logan. He's been great on both Law and Order series, and it's really too bad that he's leaving the show.

  • I like all the "detectives" on all the Law & Order shows and was delighted when Noth returned to Criminal Intent. Of course, Vincent has never been replaced, but Noth gave an interesting performance that played off the the characters in the original cast of Criminal Intent. I will miss him as each of these characters are like friends that have been invited into my home on a regular basis.

  • Chris and Jesse gone,, its sad but true fans always watch all of the law n orders!!!

  • how could you not miss him. He is an old friend. Why do actors think they have to leave successful shows for the unknown.

  • Yes. It'll be a loss without C. Noth. Maybe they shouldn't include that pair everyother week although I like the actress that plays C. Noth's partner alot. However, I like the other pair best.

  • "You get what you pay for." What in the $@&*!? are they thinking?!?!? GIVE THE MAN MORE MONEY!!! He gives the show some balance, and isn't as weird and burned out as D'Nofrio. GET HIM BACK!!!!

  • Very disappointed that C. Noth is leaving. He and Jerry were the best partners. I can't believe that the powers that be wouldn't honor a pay increase. Oh, well, such is life.

    Good luck, Mr. Noth. You will be missed by millions of fans.

  • Chris Noth has always been one of my favorite L&O characters. I'm glad they brought him back and I'm sorry he's decided to leave; I only wonder what he'll do now. To answer your question: Yes, I shall miss Chris Noth; L&O, n o matter which one, hasn't been the same without him (though I LOVE the late-great Jerry Orbach) I know Chris is busy being a dad to his baby boy Orion but he's still eye candy as far as I'm concerned. I'm willing to give Jeff Goldblu a chance; he's always been a decent actor. He was good in the remake of "The Fly" and I liked him in "Nine Months" and in the movie with Forest Whitaker - the name slips my mind. In that film, he played the best friend of a jazz musician who learns he has a malignant, terminal brain cancer. He has the ability to play a New York police officer but NO one can take Chris Noth's place.

  • I will not watch the shows with Jeff Goldblum. He is not all all suited to this role; is way too old; is not handsome; what else can I say?!

    • I agree, I like Goran, but I can't even imagine someone replacing Chris Noth!

  • I really hate to see Mike Logan go!!!!! I was so happy to see him back and now ... What happened? Jeff was great in Raines but the network didn't give him a chance! I look forward to seeing him on tv again but will sorely miss that Chris Noth vibe on Law & Order. He is the best thing that ever happened to Law & Order, next to Jerry Orbach; what a team they made! I am sad to see him go. I just wish I knew why!

  • oh no!, he's the other reason i still watch this series...he gives the renegade cop with an emotional touch and d'onofrio give the anal cop thinker the boost the show needs...jeff goldblum isn't either...i had to quit l&o when jesse martin left...and i rarely watch svu anymore since no one knows who's going to be there next week...:( sad

  • Chris Noth has always been my favorite on Law and Order since the original show. I am really upset that he is leaving. I haven't felt this way since Jerry Orbach (Lennie Briscoe) died. Criminal Intent will not be the same!

  • I watched SVU on a regular basis and started watching CI regularly when Chris Noth joined the cast of CI. I definitey miss him and will probably not watch the show any longer. D'Onofrio is washed up. Mr. Wolf needs to do everything possible to keep Chris Noth on the show. He brings sex appeal to the show. He is hot, hot , hot.

  • I am so sorry to hear that Chris Noth is leaving CI. He's been a favorite of mine since his days on Law and Order, the original series. MIKE LOGAN can't be replaces. I'm not excited about his replacement at all!

  • You are right, I was thrilled to see him return, and will miss him greatly!

  • First of all... the name is MIKE Logan, not Nick UGH! second... there is no replacing Chris Noth, they'd be better us go back to using just one set of detectives rather than adding someone who does not fit this show at all!

  • Come on.........why? I've watched him from the beginning to exile in of all places Staten Island, (ex-New Yorker here). No more Mr Big ughhh, now this. I hope he is going on to bigger and better because I was totally happy and overwhelmed when he came. back!

  • I know this goes against the grain, but, I like Jeff Goldblum. I actually liked his character in Rhames. It was sort of "Monk" like. I am a fan. I hope he can pull this off. Chris salute whatever you do, luv ya!
