NBC's probably hoping this will be a ratings boost; since it's return the series is doing poorly in the ratings. I think between the long hiatus, cast shake-up and move to Monday (not the best night for any L&O series to air), they've probably killed the show.
I personally still enjoy it (I didn't think I would after they killed of Skeet Ulrich's character), but I'll be surprised if it's back next season.

Khloé Kardashian Dishes on Her "Law & Order: LA" Guest Role

Khloé Kardashian is about to have a run-in with the criminal justice system -- on "Law & Order: LA", of course.
The star of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" and "Khloé & Lamar" comes under police scrutiny after her stylist is murdered on this week's episode (Mon., April 25, 10PM ET on NBC).
Detectives Ricardo Morales (Alfred Molina) and T.J. Jaruszalski (Corey Stoll) call on Kardashian (the TV version, at least) to find out just what happened during her last meeting with the doomed stylist.
"I'm kind of a suspect because my stylist and I got into a fight before she died," Kardashian told AOL TV in an exclusive interview. "They come to my set, they're kind of interrogating me, and I just give them my answers."
Are you a "Law & Order" fan?
Yeah, I'm a big fan! I became one because this is one of Lamar's favorite shows and he always watches it. I love a good murder mystery and crime shows ... I love all that stuff.
When I got asked to do it, I was a little hesitant because I've never acted without any of my sisters. This is only the second acting job I've ever done. I did "90210", but I was with my sister Kim.
It was just easier when you have someone who you're in your comfort zone with, so doing this by myself, I was skeptical. Lamar and my best friend Malika kind of pushed me into doing it.
So Lamar won't be onscreen with you?
Oh no, it's just me. Lamar has that other career in the NBA. [Laughs]
What was it like filming with stars Alfred Molina and Corey Stoll?
Filming with them was intimidating for me. Like I said, I've never done this. It's weird, I almost felt like I had to tell them, "I've never done this before!" but I didn't because that's so lame, it's like a cop-out.
They were so nice, so professional. Alfred Molina is hysterical, so funny and always making jokes. There was some pressure, you know? You want to do good, you don't want to fumble on your lines.
Even though it is one scene, I really do love and appreciate that I was with such great actors.
Do you have your own personal gag reel? Did you do many takes?
We did a lot of takes, but because they do a lot of different angles. It's so different than when I film. I messed up a few times -- like, I'd fumble over my words or speak in present tense when it was supposed to be past tense.
So many things that I've never had to think about before, but they said I did a great job. They said, "Oh, so many pros have messed up more than you." I don't know, they could just be saying that to make me feel good.
Do you want to become an actress and guest star on more shows?
I would never say never. I do not think I am comfortable enough right now to want to just jump in and do that. I like doing little stuff like this because I think it builds my confidence.
I've never acted, so obviously I don't think I could be in a movie and memorize an entire script right now, but I do like practicing. Playing somebody who's not me, that's the first step -- a baby step. We're our own worst critics.
I don't even know if I'm good at this, I think I need someone else to kind of tell me that.
So, will you watch yourself?
That is the thing, I don't know! It's so weird, I can watch myself on my shows, doing reality TV, but I could not watch myself on "90210". It freaks me out.
I know my family is going to watch it and Lamar is going to watch it, but I don't know if I could watch myself at first. That might sound weird, but I just don't know.
Is there anything fans should watch out for?
I'm boxing in the scene. That's fun -- I get to kick some ass.
That's cool, so you were working and getting a work out?
It was. They were making me sweat. I was like, "Um, why did I sit through makeup if I'm sweating my balls off right now?"
So you had your own sweat? They didn't mist you?
I had my own sweat, baby.
