Braugher also made his mark by portraying a couple of roles apart from his B99 character. This includes his short House M.D. role, Bojack Horseman, and winning a couple of Emmy awards from the classic series Homicide, and in the 2006 FX miniseries, Thief.

Braugher had also starred in a prominent role by voicing an ominous character in DC's Superman/Batman: Apocalypse.

Apart from these, though, he also became one of the main characters in an underrated series called Men of a Certain Age. He played the role of Owen Thoreau Jr., a diabetic car salesman who works for his father.

In the series, Owen is a part of the inseparable trio of his friends since college. Through the walks of life, he's been a part of the group and has found stability in the ongoing friendship he has kept with Joe and Terry.
