Jack McCoy says this on Law and Order.

I can't understand what it meant, so I searched the Internet. It's a favorite quote from the show, but I can't find the meaning behind it. Does anyone understand this?

Its either nonsense or an inside joke of some sort.

Freud, psychoanalysis (deeper meaning behind action/thought)...

Literally, the person is implying don't take a man holding a pickle to be a closet homosexual. Metaphorically, the person is saying sometimes things are what they seem and don't dive to deep into them...

"Phalic shaped objects = Penis; LOL!!"- Sigmund Freud

So when the blond DA was like blah, blah, Freudian motivations on your part. He's like if we want to get Freudian, I'm sitting here with my dick in my hand. Then she's like blah, blah, inequality in the justice system. Then he's like, whatcha gonna do, dems the breaks?

the person is saying sometimes things are what they seem and don't dive to deep into them...

This part is right, as pertains to the conversation the OP is referencing.

The first part was just a literal interpretation of the words in and of themselves. Irrelevant to the show. If that makes sense?

Even if you make the pickle/phallic leap the quote still doesnt make sense, or is a FAR stretch at best.

Jesus Christ....

"Never get Freudian" means "Don't be psychoanalytic"

"On a man holding a pickle" is just some random example that could be misconstrued by someone analyzing it too much for what it really means...NOTHING.

ALL this quote is trying to say is don't dive too deep into things I'm sure if you put this quote in context of the show it would be a response to someone trying to over analyze something.

And in the greatest irony of all we're doing exactly what this quote says not to do about the quote itself!!!!

So please, stop acting like this MAINSTREAM TELEVISION utterance is some sort of mysterious enigma which holds a deeper meaning. ITS NOT. It's pointless dialogue trying to get a cheap laugh of a stupid mind numbing TV show.

^ This person was sexually abused as a child and as a result, feels weak and inadequate. They compensate for this by attempting to ridicule people over the internet.

I sense that the joke is more along the lines of the guy probably kicking your ass.
