NBC is looking to bring back its longest-running drama series, Law & Order. The network has been exploring the possibility of re-assembling the cast from the early years of the series. I hear several actors have been approached, including original cast members Chris Noth and Sam Waterston, who did not join the show until Season 5 but are the actors most closely associated with the Law & Order brand. I hear NBC is eyeing 10 new Law & Order episodes. The network had no comment.
Not a single lie but I do wish they would bring back the original series. Criminal intent was good but it ended sourly and I just want the series to continue to live on through new characters at least.
I used to only like SVU, but I've really been getting into watching the original's reruns on Sundance lately. Even the most ancient episodes still hold up IMO. I think I like the Claire Kincaid era the best.
I don't get why they would bother to bring it back as a "limited series" though. Seems pointless since it's not like original ended on a cliffhanger or anything.
