Thanks Caitlin.

I can't access the link, so can you tell me if the article mentions what now happens to the new ADA they have, the beauty queen? I wonder if her job is in jeopardy? I haven't heard good buzz about her.

All fixed now

Thanks. Here's a link to a blog that has some "implied" info about March's return to SVU:

All Things Law & Order

Also, the buzz at TWoP is that McManus will be "Adam Beach-ed" (meaning dumped). At least they hope so.

This is the text of the official NBCU press release. From the glaring omission of any mention of Michaela McManus I believe we can infer that her split with NBCU was not amicable.

P.S. Am I wrong or is this thread supposed to be reserved for articles specifically about CI?

Thanks for the article, AL.

And yes, this thread probably belongs under the SVU sub-forum.
