I’m just glad someone else noticed

You know, I often scratch my head and wonder — wasn’t Law and Order on last night? USA Today notes:

If you’re starting to feel you’ve been watching a show called Law & Order: CSI, don’t worry. It’s not you. It’s your TV.

During the 22 hours of prime time this week, NBC is presenting six hours of Dick Wolf’s three Law & Order series: the original,Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Law & Order: Criminal Intent; CBS has eight hours of law-enforcement drama from its four Jerry Bruckheimer shows: CSI, CSI: Miami, Without a Traceand Cold Case.

For fully half of prime time’s weekly real estate — 11 hours — viewers tuning in will be able to find a show from one of TV’s two top crime bosses.

L&O and CSI aren’t stopping yet. Prospects for a fourth Law & Order are good, Zucker says, and there’s talk at CBS of another version of CSI, maybe New York.
