DR. FRANK CHEN
(James Saito)
“Eli Stone’’
He’s a relatively peripheral character in the “Eli Stone’’ universe, but he could carry a show, I’m sure of it. He was Dr. Chen, the Chinese acupuncturist, herbalist, and spiritual guide. But - psych - his real name was Frank Lebakowski and he was from New Jersey. Still, he was a healer and a loyal leader, even while he never failed to make me laugh. I say let him keep his shop and customers for a half-hour single-camera comedy called, simply, “Chen.’’
