At the end of Remand, an episode of Law and Order, Jack McCoy, walked into a parking garage and offers a helmet to his assiant. I only saw the top of the bike, but believe it was a Harley. So that makes three different makes of bikes I have seen him with.

1) BMW
2) Yamaha
3) Harley

Has you seen an others, maybe a Triumph ?

The only Triumph I can recall on a current TV series is Hugh Laurie's on "House"

John, I got the impression Sam Waterston is also into vintage iron after watching a Law and Order episode a few year back where he's seen reading a copy of the brit magazine "Classic Bike" in his office.


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

There's a programme over here called Heartbeat. It's a quaint lil cop-show based in a late 60's Yorkshire village. The local plod ride round (as they did) on Bonnie's and Beezers. Thru our surround sound system, they sound fantastic, especially the Beezer, which, in my opinion, sounds better than the Trump. (Am I allowed to say that here?)

Oh, and the bikes are actually ridden in the show, not just there as ornament.

Sandra Oh on "Grey's Anatomy" rides a standard Bonneville, but I haven't seen it since the first season.

Well Brian, after the first year, the Triumph Bonneville was dropped by the producers of that show after it was overheard making a derogatory comment about Harley Sportsters and the people who ride 'em.

(if you watch that show, you'll get that joke)

I get it, beware the AUP!

BTW, how can we not mention the lovely Jessica Alba riding a 600 Ninja on "Dark Angel"? Still on SciFi channel.

Yes, you can say that. But say it very quietly

You have good observation skills, JPR. I am a fan of the show and have only seen the Harley.

I just saw a rerun of a Good Eats episode and Alton Brown had a Triumph in the background. I think it was a T100.
