Ascomedian John Mulaney famously joked,“I miss Jerry Orbach more than certain dead relatives of mine.”

Orbach’s appearance added a familiar face to the spinoff to help get viewers on board.

Orbach sadly died after only filming two episodes of “Trial By Jury”.

In the days following Orbach’s passing, his co-stars remembered their time with Orbach.

“I threw my arms out and said, ‘Teach me that.’

And so he did.”
