Law & Order: Organized Crime Returning for Season 5, Moves to Peacock
NBC's Christopher Meloni (Elliot Stabler)-starring Law & Order: Organized Crime is returning for Season 5 and making the move to Peacock.
There was some concern among "Law & Order" fans when NBC's Christopher Meloni (Elliot Stabler)-starring Law & Order: Organized Crime wasn't included in the network's renewal announcement from a few weeks back. Was the show in danger of being canceled? Would Meloni end up reuniting full-time with Mariska Hargitay (Olivia Benson) over on "SVU"? Well, we got our answer earlier today – with the Dick Wolf, Matt Olmstead & Ilene Chakin-created spinoff series officially set to return for a fifth season – but when it does, it will operating out of a new "precinct" over on Peacock. In addition, John Shiban is set to return as the showrunner for the new season – giving "Organized Crime" the creative stability it needs heading into the move.
With the fourth season finale set for Thursday, May 16th (streaming the following day on Peacock), here's a look at the promo for tonight's episode – "Goodnight":
Created by Emmy Award-winning producer Dick Wolf, "Law & Order: Organized Crime," now in its fourth season, follows the detectives of the Organized Crime Control Bureau as they work to dismantle New York City's most vicious and violent illegal enterprises.
