Next week, Law and Order: Special Victims Unit returns with an all new episode and to keep things as fresh as possible, they’re bringing on a guest star you might recognize: Kathy Griffin. I know what you’re thinking? She’s a comedienne and host’s CNN’s New Years Eve show, but is she an actor too?

Well, apparently she can act, at least judging from the clips we have from the show next week for you. In thise clips we are introduced to her character “Babs Duffy” as she brings a complaint against your favorite SVU officers, meets ADA Cabot (Stephanie March) for the first time and then confronts Detective Benson (Mariska Hargitay) — not really a confrontation you want to have.

We’ve also got a video interview with Griffin where she talks about her role on the show. Of course, she’s very funny as usual. Be sure to check out all the clips after the break. SVU returns next Wednesday at 9/8C on NBC.

Are you missing shows like The Office and Law and Order SVU during the Olympics hiatus? Us too. Fortunately, NBC has sent us over some new videos to tide us over until these shows return.

The first is a promo for SVU, which returns March 3rd with two back-to-back episodes. In the promo we get to see what’s up with our favorite cops and how they’re dealing with a new and potentially explosive case.

Also, to commemorate and get you excited for the special “Baby” episode of The Office where Jim and Pam’s bundle of joy finally makes an appearance, we’ve got some clips highlighting their budding romance. In the clips, follow Jim and Pam through Season 4 as they struggle to keep their relationship a secret from the rest of the office and finally make the decision to take it official.

Check out all the videos after the break. The Office “Baby” episode airs March 4th and SVU returns March 3rd on NBC.

This week, both Mercy and Law and Order: SVU featured some pretty awesome guest stars including Michael Imperioli’s appearance on Mercy and Lost’s Naveen Andrews and Studio 60′s Sarah Paulson on Law and Order: SVU. Courtesy of your friends at NBC, we’ve got clips from both shows to help you figure out what you missed or if you saw the episodes, help you relive the magic.

In the videos, you’ll learn more about Imperioli’s appearance on Mercy with a preview clip and an interview with the actor. For Law & Order: SVU, we’ve got clips of both Naveen Andrews and Sarah Paulson at work showing scenes from the episode. As we like all of these actors, and you should also, there’s no reason not watch both of these shows for all the action, drams and suspense.

You can watch the clips and recaps after the break or head on over to NBC’s website and enjoy full episodes of both of these shows.

We’ve been following NBC’s freshmen drama Mercy a bit here at the site and so far, it seems to be doing pretty well and has not been canceled — at least so far. With an interesting premise and a cast that includes relative newcomer Taylor Shilling and Buffy alum Michelle Trachtenberg, the show continues to be one of the surprises of the season and will hopefully last until season two.

In contrast to Mercy, Law & Order: SVU is not a freshmen show and is still going strong after several seasons. Both shows returned to the air this week after the holiday break. In case you missed the premiere of these shows, or even if you saw them and still want to relive the magic, we’ve got lots of video for you today — courtesy of our pals at NBC.

In addition to the recaps, we’ve also got previews of upcoming episodes of both shows featuring guest appearances by The Soprano‘s Michael Imperioli, Lost‘s Naveen Andrews and Studio 60‘s Sarah Paulson.

Check out all the clips and interviews from both shows after the break.
