Well for sheer Quirky Detectives (and their horny frustrated wannabe
hot babe sidekicks), I've of course always liked Mr. Monk -- but even
more than Monk is Vincent D'Onofrio in his 'Law & Order: Criminal
Intent" franchise ... and if you don't recognize him in the Law &
Order lineup, he's the slightly chunky tall slow-talking insightful
one who used to always stand back just far enough from the suspect so
he could then lean way into and forward and over at the hip, often at
death-defying right-angle, just enough for that joint signature cameo
of the suspect's face and D'Onofrio's head & neck cocked at a weird
right angle and into the suspect's face so D'Onofrio could ask his
haltingly, penetratingly-dumb, and yet embarrassingly revealing
question of the lying sack of shit trying to get away with murder (or
at least bad acting) ... and when my kids were young, they use to love
D'Onofrio and call him the "lean to" and watch him lean way over into
that per-arranged focus space for him, the camera, and the suspect ...
and then they'd place imaginary bets that this would be the scene
where D'Onofrio couldn't keep his balance and falls over right into
the actor suspect's lap and loses the bet (and off camera has to
either give him a blow job right there or a big wad a cash).
