In a statement to Variety, show creator Dick Wolf said, "Richard Belzer’s Detective John Munch is one of television’s iconic characters... Richard brought humor and joy into all our lives, was the consummate professional and we will all miss him very much.”
The role of Detective Munch was history-making in its own right — Munch appeared in more television series (nine total) than any other fictional character. Belzer played the role for 21 years, originating the acerbic detective on the 1993 show Homicide: Life on the Street. Belzer departed from the role on "SVU" in 2013, but briefly returned to the show in 2016 and continued a series of guest spots across a variety of shows. Prior to his detective role, Belzer was known for his comedic talents as both an actor and stand-up comedian.
While long-time fans mourn the "Law & Order" loss, Belzer's friend and writer Bill Scheft said he left the world with one final Munch-ian line: "Fuck you, motherfucker."
