I am SO TIRED of John Larroquette playing lawyers! I'm sort of hoping this pilot falls through or doesn't make it to midseason. What happened to that "Alcoholic Sniper" series that he had in the works, according to his Twitter account?

I doubt I'll watch this because John has become so typecast. It's the same reason I got upset with Boston Legal. I'm just SICK TO DEATH of him playing the same type of character over and over.

I did love that episode of House where he played a guy who came out of a coma to save his son's life. Was his character a lawyer there, too?

Larroquette definitely wasn't a lawyer in the early 80's horror spoof- Hysterical, he played a stoned boat tour guide. With the very creative name- Bob X Cursion...who says the Hudson brothers couldn't write good stuff?

Nope, he had owned a manufacturing business.

On the other hand, he had a short recurring role on The West Wing, where he played...

....A lawyer.

I'm seeing a pattern here... :)
