NBC Flips 'Heist,' 'Law & Order' Beginning Next Week
By Brian Ford Sullivan

LOS ANGELES (thefutoncritic.com) -- "Law & Order" is going home.

Scheduling updates released this morning confirm NBC is sending "Law & Order" back to its old Wednesday, 10:00/9:00c slot next week, just two weeks into its run at 9:00/8:00c.

"Heist" then will slide back from 10:00/9:00c to 9:00/8:00c.

The news comes after "Law's" second consecutive fourth place finish in the 9:00/8:00c hour (in both households and adults 18-49), behind ABC's "Lost," CBS's "Criminal Minds" and FOX's duo of "American Idol" and "Unan1mous."

"Heist" likewise hasn't fared much better as it has trailed CBS's "C.S.I.: New York" and ABC's "The Evidence" since its premiere two weeks ago.
I noticed this on my TiVo as I was looking for what was coming up this week.

Note the change.

That's a shame. I enjoyed the first 2 episodes.

Lost > Heist.

Guess I won't be watching Heist anymore. I'll have to turn to Thief for my robbery-related programming.

Thanks for posting. I might have missed this as I already planned my watch/DVR/VCR strategy for the week. Now Wednesday is watch/DVR/<s>VCR</s>

Has anyone checked on USA or Bravo repeats?

ETA: It looks like this week's episode and next week's episode will both re-air on Bravo on April 14 at 9 PM and 10 PM EDT.

Last I checked, my TiVo didn't have any more repeats on USA after this week. :(

I just updated my post. It looks like repeats are shifting to Bravo.

Scheduling change or not, that sounds like a wise plan to me.

Good my American Idol is back on tap for Tivo

Nice, I'm glad they're giving L&O it's slot back to help with ratings. I didn't want to see Orbach go, but I've been pleasantly surprised by Dennis Farina. I thought it was an odd choice when I saw the first promo, but he's a great fit.

Too bad Elisabeth Röhm is gone, but at least she came out before she left. :banana:

USA Network is airing from the first two episodes back to back starting at 5:00 pm ET this afternoon.
