He also played a seductive vampire in the cult musical "Dracula: A Musical Nightmare" in a small LA theatre. After the success of his hit cop show in the 1980s, Spano appeared here, there and everywhere but to less notoriety. He's had recurring roles in Murder One (1995) and På spaning i New York (1993), again as a detective. He has appeared regularly in mini-movies and other television shows as well. He made his Broadway bow in 1992 as Walter in a revival of "The Price" by Arthur Miller.
