Dun. Dun. So the bell tolls for the original "Law & Order."

The last crime solved on the iconic New York City drama will be this month, NBC officials confirmed, following speculation that the show would end its decades-long run.

But even though the last episode will be May 24, diehard fans may feel the blow lessened a bit as NBC said it will launch new a "Law & Order" franchise in Los Angeles and will continue "Law & Order: SVU" for another season.

A 21st season would have set a record for the longest-running TV drama series. The cancellation leaves "Law & Order" tied with "Gunsmoke" for the longevity title.

Earlier, as various entertainment news sources reported the network would not renew ####### Wolf's creation after Deadline.com cited recent "soft ratings."

Set and taped in New York, the show built a huge following with storylines taken from real headlines. Over the years, such acting luminaries as Jerry Orbach, Paul Sorvino, Chris Noth, Michael Moriarty, Jill Hennessy, Benjamin Bratt, Angie Harmon and Jesse Martin have had regular roles on the show.

Current stars Sam Waterston, who plays the top prosecutor, and S. Epatha Merkerson, who plays a detective, have enjoyed a long run on the show.

Longtime Tennessee senator and presidential candidate Fred Thompson,who played the district attorney on the show for several years, stepped down from the role to mount a failed White House bid in 2007.

Why can't they do this to "Law and Order: Elevator Inspector's Unit", "Law and Order: Parking Lot Patrol", or one of the other 50 spin-offs? Anyway, other than Waterston, the best cast members are long gone anyway. RIP Jerry Orbach.

It was the one thing left that NBC had going for it. So they had to kill it. You know how it is, if you do something, do it right. Too bad NBC has decided to suck.

they've still got SVU..... it's good enough.

beyond that though, you're right :(

Isn't it amazing that Gunsmoke has remained tops in longevity for decades?

And which show is third in longevity -- Bonanza?

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."
