The Law & Order franchise gets a disappointing update about Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler's future. Since Chris Meloni's return to the Dick Wolf-produced franchise via Law & Order: Organized Crime, there has been eager anticipation about the possible reunion between Benson and Stabler. Several years after their first entanglement in a decade, there's still no concrete path forward for their romance.
Now, a report from Variety reveals that NBC is breaking up the Law & Order Thursday block by moving Law & Order: Organized Crime to a midseason premiere.
This means there won't be as many crossover opportunities between the new spin-off and Law & Order: SVU. Read the related excerpt from the outlet below:
"Meanwhile, the decision not to keep a three-prong "Law & Order" lineup on Thursdays comes out of the showrunner change on "Law & Order: Organized Crime." "They will actually benefit from having a little time and the show will come back as part of the Thursday night stack in midseason. This opened up the opportunity to put 'Found' in a great time period," Bader said.
"
Before both shows go into their mandatory summer hiatus, NBC is staging a big crossover send-off for Law & Order: SVU and Law & Order: Organized Crime.
