    So sad. I know he’s mostly known nowadays for Brooklyn 99, but I first remember him from Primal Fear.

    Like they said in the article, Homicide Life on the Street is where I remember him from. Lots of good actors and performances in that show, but he was a standout. RIP.

    Everything about Homicide: Life on the Street was stellar. Then the producers went on to The Wire.

      B99 would not be anywhere near as good of a show without him. He was brilliant in his role.

    Shout outs to the stubborn Brent from The Mist. A small part, but that’s where I saw Braugher first

      The Mist is also where I first saw him, he did an excellent job in that role.

      Most likely, there will be some improved access to his older roles like on Kojak. Even back then, he was a standout. Stole a lot of scenes he was in.
