Episode 71 – Getting Personal With “NYPD Blue” Star Bill Brochtrup - Part 1

  • Resumen

  • On this episode of Hollywood Obsessed, host Tony Miros speaks with Bill Brochtrup, who is best known for playing public administrative assistant ‘John Irvin’ on the Emmy award-winning series "NYPD Blue”. During their revealing conversation, Bill tells Tony about his early days of being a struggling actor in Hollywood, what it was like working with Angela Landsbury on the classic TV series “Murder She Wrote”, how his appearance in the L.A. stage production of "The Raft of the Medusa" won him the role of out gay public administrative assistant John Irvin on the hit ABC police drama "NYPD Blue”, his memories of playing the only openly gay character on the show for 6 seasons - including his thoughts on how his character was an integral part of the show, not a throwaway one, how his onscreen storyline with the gruff, homophobic Det. Andy Sipowicz (Dennis Franz) changed throughout the years, and how this groundbreaking role opened doors for more significant gay characters and stories to be told on television.
