'Order' back in order

GOOD MORNING: And it's hopefully a good morning for Vincent D'Onofrio, star of "Law & Order: Criminal Intent." Producer Dick Wolf said the actor has a 7 am call today on the set at Chelsea Piers, having been released from the hospital over the weekend. Wolf, who spoke to D'Onofrio in the hospital, says an MRI report returned Monday was "clear." The company had shuttered for one day when the series' lead thesp was hospitalized following a series (four) of faintings. Wolf said he was suffering from "exhaustion" and characterized the lead role in this drama series as "the worst job in show business -- a 14-hour work day for nine months." Of all three Wolf series, he said, "no one has a tougher schedule than Vincent." He called reports of fights on the set as "ludicrous".

Vincent - If you hear a large escape of air, it is the exhale of relief from all of us. Damn, man, you scared us. That is all the many boards have been talking about - YOU, and concern. Mr. Vincent, I think the time as come for you to share some of the load. I think it would be a real good idea to morph the show a bit and extend the roles of the other actors. Let's have a Kate epi with Carver. I would rather see less of V and know he is not running himself into the ground. Rene, start typing! Vincent, please take it easy, please! You are a very bright spot in our lives and there is a common wish for your health and general well being.
