Alec Baldwin is on his way back to NBC, and also to New York City.

The former 30 Rock mainstay will appear on an upcoming episode of Law & Order: SVU, according to E! Online, coming on board the long-time drama in an installment directed by Mariska Hargitay.

No other details are available at this time.

Baldwin will stop by some time this March, marking his first role on television since leaving Jack Donaghy's upper floor office.

The actor had been set to host his own political show on MSNBC, until he blew up at a photographer late last year and use a homophobic epithet in his attack.

That wasn't funny. But watch 30 Rock online now to remember just how hilarious Baldwin can be.
