Rachael Taylor is every bit as lovely and gracious and talented and intelligent in Transformers as she is on the phone. Needless to say, she's got a bright future ahead of her. And she's also come a long way since she made the move from Australia to the United States. I'd say she made the right decision, because Transformers made a ton of money! Recently, I had the pleasure of interviewing Rachael Taylor to talk about the recent DVD release of Transformers. When asked her thoughts about Anthony Anderson , she said this "

Anthony Anderson's beautiful face. I love the man to death. I think he's such a treasure of a person. I was quite nervous shooting this film, because it was my first sort of movie ever and it's sort of a big one to kind of handle, and Anthony was just so supportive and funny. Michael Bay had this thing about not wanting any food on set, so Anthony would hide hamburgers around the set. He's just a gorgeous human being, and I love him dearly".

Anderson Replaces Martin on L&O

We guess this officially means that “K-Ville” is dead. Jesse L. Martin has announced that he’s leaving the hit series, “Law & Order.” He will be replaced by a detective from another network, “K-Ville’s” Anthony Anderson.

Anthony Anderson is one of the most unlikely dramatic leads of the season with "K-Ville," playing a police detective dedicated to his recovering city as he struggles to hold his life, career and family together in the wake of the storm.

With "K-Ville," Anderson joins the ranks of other comedians such as Denis Leary, Michael Chiklis and Hugh Laurie who won newfound success with their dramatic turns on television.

"From my standpoint, if Anthony's good enough for Martin Scorsese, he's good enough for me," said Liguori, a longtime fan who worked with him on "The Shield" when he was an executive at FX. Liguori added that he has always been intrigued by comedians who take on dramatic roles, saying they usually bring a humane, relatable quality to the portrayals. The actor is pleased that he is once again shattering expectations. "I feel good about where I am," Anderson said recently during a stop in Los Angeles. "I knew I could do drama. People don't know that I've trained with actors like Avery Brooks, Ruby Dee, Ossie Davis. I was just never given the opportunity before 'The Shield' to show what I could do. People just seemed to be myopic in their thinking when it came to me, and I knew it would someday come to a point where I wouldn't want to be that character anymore."

In 18 seasons, "Law & Order" has cycled through a couple dozen actors in lead roles. So the latest change is just business as usual.
But Jesse L. Martin's last episode as one of the show's stars coincides with Anthony Anderson's first episode as one of the show's stars. And that is something out of the ordinary.
Then Anderson's Fox show, "K-ville," was canceled, making him available for "Law & Order." He signed on during the writers' strike, and once the strike ended, his entrance and Martin's exit were orchestrated.
No matter how closely you've watched over the past nine seasons, you're still in for some surprises about Martin's character, detective Ed Green.

Green shoots and kills a suspect. Detective Kevin Bernard (Anderson) is one of the internal affairs detectives assigned to investigate Green's actions. In Green's final episode, the police detective becomes the suspect. And without giving too much away, there are some believable twists that turn this case into something other than it at first appears.
Which is sort of business-as-usual for "Law & Order."
It's not giving away anything, however, to tell you that Green will be exiting, leaving an opening for a new homicide detective. Nor is it a secret that detective Bernard will be that replacement.1/ 2
