Ever since I learned that he provided the voice of the character Leodore Lionheart in Disney's Zootopia Mom told me that she used to see actor J.K. Simmons in Law And Order and I would like to know if you remember seeing J.K. Simmons on Law And Order?

Yes. He played a psychiatrist named Dr. Emil Skoda that the district attorney's office would sometimes use to evaluate people who'd been charged with murder, if their mental state was called into question. So he wasn't on every episode and would appear in maybe a handful of episodes every season he was playing the character. Originally, they had a psychiatrist named Elizabeth Olivet who did the same thing, she was played by an actress named Carolyn McCormick. But then she disappeared and was replaced with the character of Emil Skoda. He was quite good in the role, it was the first I was aware of J.K. Simmons, I have no idea what he acted in before he had that role though.

With Law And Order still regularly being rerun if you know where to find it you're bound to catch an episode he was in sooner or later.

Thank you for the J.K. Simmons info Edward. Mom and I used to see J.K. Simmons on The Closer as well and we had no idea he was also on Law And Order too. In fact when Mom and I watch Law And Order reruns we always check to see if J.K. Simmons will appear in the episode we watch. And my mother was also shocked and surprised to see J.K. Simmons provide the voice of Leodore Lionheart in Disney's Zootopia and J.K. Simmons sounded really awesome and he is a good actor
