A Man Named Munch

Actor/comedian Richard Belzer, who played Detective John Munch on Homicide: Life on the Streets and now plays a pale reflection of him on the vastly less brilliant Law & Order: SVU, has signed a deal to write two mystery novels inspired by his experiences on these shows.

The first novel, I Am Not a Cop, will be published in Fall 2008 by Simon & Schuster (yay--stable mate!). So I'm saving my pennies for BookExpo America next year in LA, because they'll undoubtedly have him there to promote his book. Maybe I'll even get an S&S badge. Maybe he'll nod at me.

A-Z Update: "Minas Morgul" by Howard Shore (LOTR soundtrack)

Detective Munch.

Detective...

Munch.

I saw an episode of season 3 last week, and I'm increasingly convinced that there'll never be a show on TV that I love more.
