BikeBookBread Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Just read it on USAtoday.com. WAHHH!!!! Next fall was going to be its record-breaking 21st year! The other L&Os were renewed, and there's a new L&O: Los Angeles in development. Last broadcast will be May 24th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz CA Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Just read it on USAtoday.com. WAHHH!!!! Next fall was going to be its record-breaking 21st year! The other L&Os were renewed, and there's a new L&O: Los Angeles in development. Last broadcast will be May 24th. I get confused between all the different L & O types. Which one is this? If you can mention some actors I may figure it out. I hope it's not the original, I always liked that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 It's the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangerine Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Can you imagine being Sam Waterston, and not having a plot line to carry you off into the sunset? Boo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatMomof3 Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 My sister (a huge fan) will be holding a wake/funeral. Thank goodness the reruns will continue on and she will not have to go through withdraw:lol:. I am a little sad that such a great show is being canceled (I don't like the Special Victims edition or the new Criminal Intent on USA).

Sandy in Indy Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Hallelujah! I'm *sick* of Law and Order (and its spin-offs). Sometimes there's 5 or 6 stations here running L&O stuff at the same time. Find another concept already! (My apologies and condolences to those of you who like the show...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orthodox6 Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I'm intrigued that this is a program which has been aired for twenty years. I think I have heard of it; definitely have I never watched it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

courtney.byrum Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 That makes me sad :( I love L&O and can't believe they are ending it and rather abruptly too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellie Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 It's the original. Yup, there's only one "Law & Order." The others are "Law & Order-plus Something," like "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit," or "Law & Order-Criminal Intent." It wasn't the same after Sam became DA and that new guy became Assistant DA.:glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle O. in MO Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 What?! No L&O?! :crying: Seriously, I've been watching that show for 20 yrs..never got bored with it - drove my dh crazy. He'd always ask "isn't there something better on?" What?....better than L&O? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cammie Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 (edited) :sad: Very sad. I guess it had to end sometime. I have a hard time believing that the numbers were suffering! There was a very funny article, I tried to find it online but didn't. It analyzed why so many women were dedicated to the Law and Order series. I'll look some more and link the article. http://www.slate.com/id/2073983 Here it is! Edited May 15, 2010 by Cammie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Find another concept already! (My apologies and condolences to those of you who like the show...) Dh and I have been watching since the beginning, loved that theme music! We also watch SVU but never got into CI. That said, it's been pretty lame the last few years -- we still like the actors but the heavy message and telegraphing the bad guys had to effect their ratings. It got redundant and wearisome. But it's been great fun. Really liked when Jerry Orbach, Jill Hennessey and Carey Lowell were on, when "Adam Schiff" and Fred Thompson growled around. More recently, missing Sam Waterson and Jesse Martin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tap Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 I haven't watched it in several years because I got tired of all the crime drama shows. They seemed to be the same, time after time, and it just got old. I now prefer Castle or another show that has a bit of humor in it. Castle is soooo very unrealistic but it has its moments and at least the ideas are original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hillary in KS Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I stopped watching L&O a few years ago, when they began to get especially preachy and heavy-handed. I haven't missed them, but I do miss Jerry Orbach! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXMary2 Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I prefer SVU over the original, but frankly they have become too political and not to my taste with which way they lean. I found myself watching less and less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
