Peacock has yet to renewLaw & Order: Organized Crimefor a sixth season, and even Christopher Meloni can’t answer whether his show will return.

After the season 5 finale, though, it’s unclear what the future holds for the crime drama series.
During an interview withTV Insider,Meloni addressed the odds ofLaw & Order: Organized Crimereturning for season 6.Specifically, the publication asked the actor about any"possible details, episodes, storylines,“etc. concerning the show’s future (i.e., season 6).

Will Season 6 Happen?
Based on Meloni’s answers regardingLaw & Order: Organized Crimeseason 6’s chances, it seems like it might be a while before Peacock announces its decision.If the star of the series can’t even predict its future, it’s likely because it’s so up in the air. Whatever the case, the streaming platform must reach a conclusion about a possible sixth season one way or another.
Some fans might be discouraged by Meloni’s comments. However, giventheLaw & Orderfranchise’s acclaimand success (and Meloni’s spinoff’s achievements alone),it’s more probable thatLaw & Order: Organized Crimehas a future past its season 5 finale.It would be rather surprising if season 5 was the end. Nevertheless, TV (especially on streaming) is unpredictable, meaning anything is possible when it comes to theLaw & Orderspinoff’s odds of continuing with a sixth season.
