One of my favorite characters, Arthur Taxier, stars in Broadcast Blues. Arthur was in Midnight Caller as a police detective, and Midnight Caller deserved more than three seasons.
Anyway, in Broadcast Blues Arthur plays a very self-absorbed and arrogant local news anchorman, who meets an unexpected and tragic end when he gets into the thick of a hostage situation at General Community. Norman Briggs gets very shaken up quite understandably. It would have been impressive if Diagnosis Murder cast Stanley Tucci in an episode. The two Tuccis aren't related (according to the internet), but still, it would have been must see casting.
I had a feeling who the murder was, and for once I was right.
