Vincent D’Onofrio received an Emmy Award nomination in 1998 for his riveting guest appearance in the "Homicide: Life on the Street" episode, "The Subway."
Law and Order - Criminal Intent. Vincent D'Onofrio plays Detective Robert Goren who is a quirky yet extraordinarily intelligent investigator and profiler known for his instinct and insight. Often, Goren's intuition turns out to be the case-breaker, rather than solid evidence. Each episode, Goren typically employs his knowledge of an unusually wide range of topics, from theoretical physics to (multiple) foreign languages. The Bobby Goren character is very reminiscent of Sherlock Holmes; he notices tiny yet important details ignored by others, and has broad encyclopedic knowledge. Frequently, Goren obtains crucial information and confessions by psychologically manipulating and provoking suspects, and suspects' associates.
