Law & Order: Criminal Intent Pushed Back to Summer 2009
by Mickey O'Connor
New episodes of Law & Order: Criminal Intent won't air until summer
2009, according to a USA Network spokesperson, the second such delay
in four months. The eighth season was initially scheduled to debut in
November 2008, just three months after Season 7 aired. Then, in
October, the netlet announced the season would shift to early 2009,
presumably January, so they could air all 16 episodes in a row ? the
same reason they cite for this latest push-back.
Season 8 is notable for its casting changes. Chris Noth (Sex and the
City), who played Det. Mike Logan, left the show after three seasons,
and has been replaced by the Oscar- and Emmy-nominated actor Jeff
Goldblum, who plays Det. Zach Nichols. Preview scenes sent to TV
critics in the fall showed that Goldblum's performance departed from
the stammering intellectual roles for which he is generally known (The
Fly, Independence Day, The Big Chill).
The show's spokesperson said that Goldblum's arrival, however, was not
responsible for the delays.
