There's a site Showfax.com (look for New York Episodic) that list the Law & Order Franchise regular cast members that they were looking for and it included 2 ADAs, a police captain, and 3 detectives. So asuming the the police captain is to replace Jamey Sheridan (Jimmy Deakins on CI), one of the ADAs was to replace Annie Parisse (Alexandria Borgia on L & O), one of the detectives is to replace Dennis Farina (Joe Fontana on L & O), and another is to replace Annabella Sciorra (Carolyn Beck on CI) who is the other ADA replacing and who is the other detective replacing?
The 3 detectives were described as black female, brown female and brown male, now NBC has announced the gal who's replacing Farina, Milena Govich who used to be on Conviction and the person replacing Annie Parisse is Alana De La Graza, she's half Mexican, so I guess she counts as brown female for L & O (though she's not a detective)
Now as far as I've heard SVU is like the only place not seeing much of a shake up except the temp replacement for Mariska, so I quess one of the two remaining detectives would go over to CI, but what about the other detective and is Diane Neal quitting or could the ADA really be an EADA?
I'm figuring maybe Courtney B Vance on CI is leaving but wow is that a major shake up then that would explain the push both Sheridan and Vance got for Emmy nominations this seasons, sort of going away presents. Both of them live in LA and commute to NYC and Vance and his wife Angela Bassett recently had twins via a surrogate so maybe he'd rather stay in LA.
