Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I always look for the L&O credit when I go to Broadway shows, too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

this woman, who has basically played a different maid in every single episode of the Law and Order franchise

I hated not needing to know the actress is or looked Hispanic.

I'm not far enough into OITNB for that be the most informing article, but my favourite is just looking for previous L&O credits on L&O. New York--almost like the UK, acting pool wise, and half as many accents.

But nobody is reduced, recycles, an re-uses like Canada! Especially Vancouver. I met the Vancouver Theatresports travelling team a couple times, and just up to yesterday I was pointing one out on something new (the biggest I remember them getting was one of the Lone Gunmen--the cool one, natch).

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I once noticed the same woman playing "grandmother who had no idea her grandson was dealing drugs/guns out of her apartment" in something like three or four different L&O episodes. She had a whole bunch of scenes in at least two of them, and I happened to see them back-to-back in reruns.

Art Crawl!!!

They could gather all her characters and have her play her own support group.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I suppose it's too much to ask that she actually be a recurring Fagin-esque ringleader who runs a motley crew of teenage drug dealers/gunrunners while maintaining plausible deniability?

Because books.

Oh man, now I want to listen to Oliver!

This is her. Looks like she's been in three regular L&Os and one SVU. [link]

Also, does she ever get a first name? Looking through her credits, on various shows she's played Senora Marquez, Mrs. Lopinta, Mrs. Sanchez, Mrs. Fuentes, Mrs. Gonzalez, Mrs. Carmichael, Mrs. Bosch, Mrs. Diaz, Mrs. Lopez, Mrs. Santiago, and Senora Ibanez.

Hey, she got Carmichael and Bosch--at least she's been allowed to marry out of her culture. < 80% of the time.

I was kinda hoping that I'd hit Dr. as one of the titles. I am a sad racial panda today.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I wish I'd recognized that Shambala Green is now Vee. (I'm on Ep7 of S2, and she's quite the season's villain, isn't she?)
