 Besides Dennis Stanton, other recurring characters that helped  Jessica solve the various murders she encountered were private  investigators Harry McGraw and Charlie Garrett (played by  Jerry Orbach (qv) and Wayne Rogers (I) (qv), respectively),  British intelligence agent Michael Haggerty (played by  Len Cariou (qv)) and N.Y.P.D detective Lt. Artie Gelber (played by  Herb Edelman (qv)). However, the only one of these characters to  be spun off onto his own series was Harry McGraw in the short lived  series titled, appropriately enough,  _"Law and Harry McGraw, The" (1987)_ (qv).
