Not too important.. but has anyone else noticed how this guy's trying to be hip, or something? He kind of bounces about and talks in sing-song. I think he eventually went out "dirty", didn't he?

Yeah he did go out dirty in the special Mike Logan episode that they had. At least that's how I remember.

He went out in the 1998 Law & Order movie titled, "Law & Order: Exiled" which starred Mike Logan in Staten Island where he got transferred to after he punched out the pol in the Season 5 finale, "Pride."

I will never forgive Dick Wolf for doing that to the Profaci character.

Me neither, Dream.

I've always thought his character would've been a good one to promote to a full detective.
Considering all the detectives the show went through in its last decade, the Profaci character would've done well.

That was such a shock! How many main characters go out like that? Not exactly a main character, but he'd been around since the beginning IIRC! 

Yeah that was shocking, a lot of new fans of L&O don't even know about it I think because Exiled is rarely shown and it is never referenced afterwards.

I think if it had just been "some detective" in the department, viewers would've just been "well that sucks." The fact that it was Profaci was a smart move on the writer's part because it showed that just about any detective could become dirty with the right motives/incentives.
