Law & Order SVU “Confidential” Episode Information, Sam Waterston Guest Stars

NBC has released the episode information for Law & Order SVU “Confidential" which includes Law & Order's Sam Waterston as a guest star (as DA Jack McCoy, of course). UPDATE 1/26/2010 - NBC has removed "Confidential" from the schedule and will air an SVU "rerun" instead. I assume "Confidential" will air after the Olympics.)

Here are the episode details:


Law & Order SVU “Confidential” Air Date TO BE DETERMINED
A WOMAN'S MURDER IS LINKED TO A VAST PONZI SCHEME THAT LEADS DETECTIVES BENSON (MARISKA HARGITAY) AND STABLER (CHRISTOPHER MELONI) TO REOPEN THE INVESTIGATION OF A SIMILAR CRIME COMMITTED TWENTY YEARS EARLIER

When security cameras record footage of a woman being abducted, it isn't long before Captain Donald Cragen (Dann Florek) and the SVU squad find the woman dead in the basement. Detective John Munch (Richard Belzer) recalls a similar case from twenty years before, sending Detectives Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and Eliot Stabler (Christopher Meloni) to Sing Sing to speak to the culprit, who begs them to reopen his case and prove his innocence. As strange similarities between the two cases begin to arise, Benson and Stabler face fierce opposition from Ingrid Block (guest star Lena Olin), the pit bull attorney for the main suspect who will do whatever it takes to prove her client's innocence. Ultimately, it falls on DA Jack McCoy (guest star Sam Waterston) to decide whether or not the ruthless lengths to which Block went to defend her client constituted a crime itself. Also starring: Ice-T (Detective Odafin Tutuola), Tamara Tunie (Dr. Melinda Warner), and B.D. Wong (Dr. George Huang).

My recap and review of Law & Order SVU "Confidential" can be found here.

This is GREAT!!! I've been wanting McCoy appearances on SVU. Branch used to do a ton and frankly the show has had a few scenes where no McCoy made no sense.

Next, hopefully a SVU crossover with the mothership.

McCoy should appear on SVU more often,. especially as he has less screen time on TOS.
