When Chris Noth exits Law & Order: Criminal Intent, it will be his second L&O series that he's walked away from. Beginning in 1990 and for 111 episodes, Noth fought crime as Det. Mike Logan before taking off in 1995. A film career, perhaps, he was after, but instead he landed a regular gig opposite Sarah Jessica Parker on HBO's Sex and the City. When that wrapped, it was back to L&O, though his 2005 return was to spin-off show Criminal Intent, where he remains. Until he doesn't. Because he's leaving, to be replaced by Jeff Goldblum. In between filming the show, he shot the Sex movie, and it appears he's once again angling for something new. It doesn't hurt his decision to lave that NBC won't pony up a higher salary for the guy; show creator Dick Wolf explains it, "It's just part of his persona. … A lot of actors get frustrated." So how will Noth go out? Nothing too dramatic, like his murder. That's because there might come a time when Noth wants to return to L&O. Which very may well happen, once that umpteenth go at a film career stalls.

No character development in the shows. Besides, these spin-offs are so OVER. Time for some new material, new concepts, great screenwriting, less violence, etc, etc, etc.
Yeah, the SEX movie and a bit in CAST AWAY is all I've known him to be in doing movies.
Hey, if it pays the bills, what's wrong with playing Logan until the whole L&O series goes off the air? Think of all the reruns, syndication and DVD's and such he'll get money for!
I like Logan. I liked the charactor way back in the beginning of Law & Order and especially with Jerry Orbach.
I particularly liked Logan on CI.
I liked him in The Perfect Man and felt sorry for him in Cast Away. I never watched the sex show or movie. I love Law and Order and watched him in the regular and CI. SVU is next? CI is probably my favorite out of the three but that is majorly because of Goren! I love him! I hate to see Chris Noth leave but even more so.. I hate to see Goldblum replace him!! He annoys the heck out of me and is not much to look at! I guess he and Wheeler will have that in common. I guess we will just watch every other week when it is their turn to play detectives.
