Jessica Brady, during a conversation with Riley, gives her the news about Jalen Shaw moving to Brooklyn. The job that he has taken up is at the 88. Hearing Brady’s words, Riley admits that Jalen Shaw wanted to move to Brooklyn for a long time.
Hence, his decision to take the job seems to be a reasonable one. It cannot be denied that when the announcement for Mehcad Brooks’ departure from Law & Order Season 25 was announced, fans expected that his character would be killed off, as it often happens. However, the show handles Mehcad Brooks’ Jalen Shaw’s departure in a deft manner. There is an authentic aspect to it. It also keeps the door open for his return to the show.
While speaking about his experience in Law & Order, Mehcad Brooks said that it was “a pleasure and privilege”. His contribution to Jalen Shaw’s character truly left a lasting impact. He worked with Frank Cosgrove and Vincent Riley as his partners and often faced challenges together.
He also solved many cases. Shaw's calm demeanor helps him overcome difficult situations. This can be seen when he is assaulted and later arrested. He maintains his composure during this situation despite knowing that he has no fault. He knows when not to escalate a situation.
From modeling to acting, Mehcad Brooks’ journey has been an eventful one. Besides his long-standing role as Jalen Shaw, which ends in Law & Order Season 25, he has worked in a multitude of movies and TV shows. Mehcad Brooks knows how to completely embody a character to make it look authentic.
Some of his other works that should definitely be on your watchlist are My Generation, Necessary Roughness, Supergirl, And Just Like That, Boston Public, etc. If we look into his filmography, each and every role that he takes on resonates with the viewers on a distinct level of realism.
It is truly disheartening to see Mehcad Brooks leaving Law & Order Season 25. Law & Order Season 25 will be available for streaming on Peacock after airing on NBC. On NBC, the episodes of the newest season of Law & Order will air at 8 PM ET.
Some of the other cast members for the 25th season are Maura Tierney, Tony Goldwyn, Hugh Dancy, and many more. After Brooks' departure, a void will undeniably be felt. It would be intriguing to see how the team handles the new cases now that Shaw will not be a part of it.
