Law and Order: Criminal Intent Returning April 19 With In Plain Sight

USA Network has announced the return of Law and Order: Criminal Intent, pairing the show with In Plain Sight. Both shows will premiere on April 19. Law and Order: Criminal Intent will start its eighth season at 9 pm/ET followed by In Plain Sight’s second season at 10 pm/ET.

Criminal Intent, which this season replaces Chris Noth with Jeff Goldblum, was initially scheduled to debut in November 2008, just three months after Season 7 wrapped. In October, the network announced the series would instead return in early 2009, presumably so that all 16 episodes could air in a row. But come late January, USA further pushing the show to summer 2009.
