I don't know if there's been a post about this before, but I just saw an episode of Law and Order: SVU the other night and it took me FOREVER to realize who the guy who played the judge was. At one point, they showed the judge at a party, and I yelled out, "OH! He was Mr. Drake on Cheers!"

My parents thought I had gone crazy, but oh well.

Did anyone else see this episode? The episode was called "Poison" and he played an incredibly selfish judge named Oliver Taft.

I've seen it but I never ever noticed it was him. I can reconize people that like did a commercial ten years ago, but yet I can't reconize people that were on my favorite show.

I haven't seen that episode, but I do believe I recognized him on The West Wing.... unless it was a guy that looked just like him.
