Go in Law & Order?
Last Saturday, at a party, I had an interesting conversation about go. I was told that there exists an old Law & Order episode in which a go board is found in the murdered person's house. Of course, for a team as skilled as the Law & Order team, this was a huge clue: somebody who plays a game of such complexity must have had a brilliant yet deranged mind indeed! At least, that's what I was told about the episode. Does anybody here recall it? I would love to watch this some time!

I thought there was a Sensei's page on it, but that's about an episode of Criminal Minds.

It is in the pilot-episode of Criminal Minds, they see that the murderer plays himself because he rotates the board or something.

Re: Go in Law & Order?
From an online synopsis of the eposide:
I don't know which part of this summary I find most amusing. But now you have to wonder which the "various specific profiles for types of Go players" you fit into.
Greenaway makes her way up to the attic where Reid, Hotchner and Gideon are examining the area. A board game sits on a table in front of a television. Reid identifies it as "Go" the most difficult game ever conceived, and he can tell that Slessman was playing himself. This may be helpful as there are various specific profiles for types of Go players. By examining the board Reid can tell that Slessman sees himself as an "Extreme Aggressor."
