Why Law And Order: SVU’s New Details About Kelli Giddish’s Departure Could Be Good News For Rollins

The biggest Law & Order: SVU news over the summer was that Kelli Giddish would be leaving the long-running procedural at some point in Season 24. The actress has played Detective Amanda Rollins for over a decade, and even the introduction of a new detective hasn’t made it easier to imagine a future without Rollins. Now that new details have emerged about how Giddish will be written out, there may be a silver lining.

Kelli Giddish’s final episode of SVU will air on December 8 and she will appear as a guest star on Law & Order: Organized Crime at some point later in the current Season 3, according to Variety. While it’s not good news for fans of Rollins that less than two months are left with her, there are signs here that the drama could give her a fitting farewell.
