Hargitay, Meloni to stick with 'SVU'

NEW YORK – Rest easy, fans of Law & Order: SVU. Stars Mariska Hargitay and Chris Meloni have signed contracts for another season.

That was in some doubt, with fans of the show wondering whether the actors might be replaced after their two-year contracts expired. NBC renewed the drama, its most popular scripted series, without knowing for sure whether they would be back. Pam Golum, a spokeswoman for producer Dick Wolf, says the two stars will be back at work next week, when the show begins filming its new season.

Christine Lahti will also be joining the show for the first four episodes of next season.

Changes in store for SciFi – oops, SyFy

Say it aloud and nothing is different. But when the 16-year-old Sci Fi Channel changes its name to Syfy next week, there will be more than what meets the ear. Syfy president David Howe said the network wants to bring in people who may not think of themselves as science-fiction fans, but who flock to movies such as Twilight and Star Trek.

Syfy is set to air the Battlestar Galactica movie The Plan in November, and the prequel series Caprica is scheduled to debut in January. There's also a new spinoff of Stargate and a new miniseries, Alice, based on Alice in Wonderland.
