Former “Law & Order cast member Elisabeth Röhm will direct an episode of the NBC procedural this season, NBC announced on Monday.
The episode, titled “Only the Lonely,” follows the investigation and trial in the murder of a high-level crisis consultant, who made many enemies in her career.
Röhm starred as Ada Serena Southerlyn from 2001 to 2005. Longtime viewers may remember her surprising exit, in which her character was fired by District Attorney Arthur Branch (Fred Dalton Thompson) for not being hard-nosed enough. Her line, “Is it because I’m a lesbian?” was the first time anyone had mentioned that fact that Serena was gay on the series.

Late film star Anne Heche, who died in August 2022 at age 53, spent the last year of her life penning a new memoir, “Call Me Anne.”
A follow-up to her 2001 book “Call Me Crazy,” the memoir will be released by Start Publishing in January 2023. An excerpt from the upcoming memoir includes Heche discussing her relationship with Ellen DeGeneres, whom she dated in the late 1990s.
“I was labeled ‘outrageous’ because I fell in love with a woman. I had never been with a woman before I dated Ellen,” Heche wrote. She added that she was effectively blacklisted in Hollywood due to the fact that she was part of one of the few openly-gay relationships in the industry.
Jarred Weisfeld, the independent book publisher behind Hoboken, New Jersey-based company Start, confirmed that he signed a deal with Heche in May 2022 and that she had turned in a manuscript for the memoir shortly before her death.

The official start of the 2022-23 TV season is only a few days away: On Monday, fall schedules at the broadcast networks kick into gear, which means a lot of season premieres (and a smattering of new series). The seven days from Sept. 14-20 are also pretty busy on streaming services — and the premieres on those platforms include a couple former broadcast staples. The coming week also brings the final season of Atlanta on FX.
Below is The Hollywood Reporter‘s rundown of premieres, returns and specials over the next seven days. It would be next to impossible to watch everything, but let THR point the way to worthy options for the coming week. All times are Et/Pt unless noted.
