More changes are happening behind the scenes on Law & Order: Organized Crime as the NBC procedural is once again switching showrunners ahead of the third season.

As reported by Deadline, Sean Jablonski is set to take over as showrunner for Season 3, just three months after Law & Order: SVU veteran Bryan Goluboff took the reins. Goluboff had previously replaced Barry O’Brien, who was serving as interim showrunner after the departure of Ilene Chaiken in February. That means the show has been through four different showrunners in less than a year.

Jablonski is perhaps best known for creating and producing the USA Network drama series Satisfaction, which aired for two seasons between 2014 and 2015. He’s also served as a writer and producer on shows such as Project Blue Book, Gypsy, Suits, and Nip/Truck. He also has previous ties to the Law & Order franchise, having written and produced for the original series from 2001-2002.

Organized Crime premiered on April 1, 2021, and is the seventh series in the Law & Order franchise. It stars Christopher Meloni as Elliot Stabler, reprising his role from SVU, alongside Danielle Moné Truitt, Ainsley Seiger, Brent Antonello, and Rick Gonzalez.

    I know, right?  NBC in particular seems to be collapsing, based on all the stars who've "left" their shows this year so far.  Just yesterday, it was reported that they're looking to cut $1 Billion from budgets at their tv networks to put MORE money into Peacock.  As far as Peacock goes, it's stalled at 13 million subscribers and lost almost $500 million in the most recent quarter.  If they think throwing more money at it is going to solve the problem, they're wrong.  It won't.  Peacock hasn't shown ANY growth, but NBC is still committed to it.  So instead, they're trying to force people onto the service via Days of Our Lives and cutting their primetime schedule by reducing the budget and getting rid of the 10:00 PM hour.  And, why can't Law & Order: Organized Crime retain a show runner?  This is four show runners now in two years.
