NBC has released information for two new episodes for Law & Order and Law & Order SVU for the week of January 3rd. Here are the details for Law & Order SVU “Quickie” and Law & Order “Blackmail.” (Update 12/29/09: Law & Order "Blackmail" is being bumped from January 8 so NBC can show an extra hour of (boring) Dateline. The new air date has not been confirmed, although Law & Order is now scheduled to start back up on January 15, 2010.) .) Another update 12/31/09: The Futon Critic web site says the episode has been “deleted” and is “no longer valid”, however, I have been unable to confirm this information as yet with an official NBC press release from their media web site. It’s possible that with the holidays, NBC may be a little late in getting the official information out via their normal channels. THE LATEST AS OF 1/02/2010 - NBC now has the air date set for "Blackmail" as January 15. Hopefully it will stick this time!

Melinda McGraw (SVU: Crush, Samantha Copeland) is going to CI to play Samantha Copeland in the 9th episode of the 9th season!!
I read on twitter that she was going to be sent to one of the shows... I guess CI would be the one though. No talks on if anyone's filling in after Cabot, if she leaves.
I mean SVU has Cabot, L&O with Rubirossa, CI - has noone. I hope they keep her around longer than they did Carver and Kent!
Can't wait to see SVU and L&O next year. "Lick my boot... LICK IT!"
Oh really?!
Looks like CI's luck might be changing! But I'm still going to miss Vincent, Katherine, and Eric. And Julianne.
Yea, CI went confusing when they lost their D.A. The plots started getting really complicated.

I remember this exact plot before at least twice.
CI - I think Melinda McGraw would be a good choice for CI's ADA. (LOSVU - Crush - CC Samantha Copeland)
SVU - Does Liv get spit on in this ep and later slap him?
L&O: And will Waterston, de la Garza, and Roache be leaving after the season finale?!?!?!?! Looks like L&O will be looking for a new DAs office.
I remember reading a casting breakdown of one of the s9 eps of CI. I think it's like halfway through the season she comes in because. A corrupt judge is going down for murder and the detectives are playing 'fast-and-loose' trying to convict or something like that.
If you read casting breakdowns of CI for s9, I think CI's is turing character personal drama down and drama on perps up! I might actually change MY mind and watch AFTER the main cast leaves!
Maybe I'm having a dumb moment, but it says that Brian Geraghty is the womanizer Peter Butler first and then "guest star Jack Larson (Peter Butler)" at the bottom. Who is Jack Larson playing? The rapist? The dude is over 80 years old!
Neh, it's possible. Weird. It's probably a brain fart.
