Dun dun – and done? "Law & Order: Organized Crime" has been canceled after five seasons.
NBC announced the crime show's cancellation Thursday, April 16, according to reports from The Hollywood Reporter and Deadline.
The spinoff in the police procedural universe of producer Dick Wolf ran for four seasons on NBC before transitioning over to Peacock in its fifth season. The show followed Detective Elliot Stabler, with actor Christopher Meloni reprising his "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" character, now working on an organized crime task force.
Meloni spoke out about the cancellation in an emotional video Thursday, April 16, holding back tears as he thanked fans.
"Hey everyone, I just saw that they announced 'OC,' 'Organized Crime' won't be coming back," Meloni said. "So I wanted to take this moment to say thank you to the fans, who not only helped give the character of Elliot Stabler life and longevity, but for sticking with him and welcoming him back."
