Gale took on the SVU as Dr. Garrett Lang, a cult leader on a quest to
save the world through cloning. He didn't have much of a script to work
with, but he gave it his all. Who wouldn't join a cult with Gale as the
leader?
On one hand, the director gave Gale some nice press, calling him the
"most intense actor on TV" -- which is true -- on the other hand, I have
to question a guy who has a camera pointed at Gale Harold and
Mariska Hargitay and can't think of anything better for them to do than
snipe at each other. What a waste!
Gale did make some great connections on the show. B.D. Wong, who
plays SVU's FBI profiler Dr. Huang,was the original director of East
Broadway. Stephanie March, Alexandra Cabot, the blonde DA who
cross examined Dr. Lang, played Andrew's (Gale) fiance in the movie as
well.
