Sam Waterston’s Jack McCoy has appeared in his final episode of “Law & Order.”
His character announced the departure on the Feb. 22 show, with McCoy saying to ADA Nolan, played by Hugh Dancy, that it is time he leaves the job.
“I’ve been thinking about this for a while. It’s time, it just is,” his character said, adding, “If I step aside now, the governor will be able to appoint someone — someone with integrity.”
He concluded with, “It’s been a hell of a ride.”
