'L&O: LA' Premiere Mirrors Hollywood's "Bling Ring" Burglaries (VIDEO)

The series premiere of 'Law & Order: Los Angeles' (Wed., 10PM ET on NBC) featured a ripped-from-the-headlines story: A group of burglars targeted the homes of wealthy young celebrities. Can you say Bling Ring? Detectives investigated a break-in at one high-profile actor's home (who "gets $3 million a picture"). Three grand in cash had been stolen, as well as eight Rolex watches.
"[The] guy's got two arms and eight Rolexes?" commented Rex (Skeet Ulrich). His colleague replied, "... and one safe he didn't use."
(Technically, six of the eight watches stolen from Orlando Bloom's home were Rolex watches, but hey, it's TV. The episode was a bit more gruesome than real-life events, too.)
