Great news from NBC and CBS (and Jerry Orbach isn't leaving after all):

The fourth "Law & Order" entry will be known as "Law & Order: Trial By Jury," and will star Jerry Orbach, who's spent 12 years portraying Detective Lennie Briscoe on the mother ship.

"CSI: New York," the third in that series, has two well-known actors as centerpieces: Melina Kanakaredes of "Providence" and Gary Sinise.

I hardly watch L&O, except maybe the original one. Same goes with CSI (I think Horatio needs medication; and that whole thing with his sister-in-law?). But a NY one with Gary Sinise, now, that's something worth watching. And apparently Dick Wolf is writing for the new L&O series. What we need now is for Aaron Sorkin to return to The West Wing.
