Yes, my wife and I have NEVER liked NYPD Blue, nor have we watched it --
until a few episodes this season. I think Rick Schroder (sp?) has done a
very commendable job in his NYPD role, and I have no reason to believe he
couldn't do a great job as Anakin.
As someone else pointed out, he's tougher looking and has enough rough edges
to convincingly portray someone going through what Anakin will go through.
I'd certainly prefer him over Leo for all the reasons above and several
others I haven't mentioned here. Actually, come to think of it, Schroder's
my first choice for this role (certainly better than that Joshua Jackson kid
from the silly unnamed teen age soap opera -- $%@#!). He and the main
character from this show have both been rumored for the Anakin role.

| I agree. There's also a much stronger resemblance between Rick Schroder and Jake Lloyd. That never hurts! I've always liked NYPD Blue, but Jimmy Smits is sorely missed IMHO.
