It came too close to the wire for comfort, but Law & Order will live on, landing a Season 26 renewal for 2026-27, Deadline has learned.

Their respective characters, Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler, smooched in a Season 24 scene that never aired.

There is major changing of the guard on Chicago Fire, with Andrea Newman leaving after 14 seasons, and Victor Teran succeeding her as showrunner.
