"Law & Order" is reportedly getting a revival treatment. Rumor has it, NBC is developing 10 new episodes to bring back the crime-solving procedural saga for a limited series. According to Deadline, the original members Chris Noth and Sam Waterston are approached for the project.

"Law & Order" was canceled in 2010 after airing for 20 seasons, tying "Gunsmoke" as the longest-running primetime drama series in the U.S. Meanwhile, the spinoff "Law and Order: SVU" has just been renewed for season 17, cementing it as the longest-running drama on TV right now.
