NBC has yanked a new episode of “Law & Order: SVU” that was to air this week … because it features Timothy Busfield, who’s facing child sex abuse charges.

A source with knowledge confirmed to TMZ … this Thursday’s ‘SVU,’ titled “Corrosive,” will be shelved … and a new episode scheduled for next week has been bumped up.

It’s unclear if Timothy’s one-off episode — in which he plays Judge Warren Fels — will ever see the light of day.

As we previously reported … the award-winning film and TV actor and director was accused of sexually abusing underage boys who were child actors on “The Cleaning Lady” while he was directing the show.

An investigation into Busfield began in November 2024 — and a warrant for his arrest was issued on Friday. We’re told Busfield is not currently in custody, and law enforcement has not provided a timeline for an arrest. His whereabouts have not been publicly disclosed.

Cartoonist Scott Adams has died after a battle with prostate cancer.

Adams’ first ex-wife, Shelly, revealed the news during a live stream on “Real Coffee with Scott Adams” … reading Scott’s final message to his fans.

The letter — dated January 1, 2026 — reveals he’s still of sound mind … and that he’s converting to Christianity because of the “risk-reward” calculation.

We broke the story … Shelly told us just yesterday that Scott entered hospice earlier this month and was receiving end-of-life care amid his rapidly declining health. She said nurses were going in and out of the home while she, her daughter, and her sister were providing care as well.

Scott even recorded a podcast episode during which he acknowledged it may be his last ever … which feels even more poignant now given his passing.

Adams announced he had prostate cancer last year, which had spread to his bones and paralyzed him below the waist.

In the late 1980s — while working at the Pacific Bell Telephone Company — Adams launched the “Dilbert” comic strip with United Media.

He became a full-time cartoonist after “Dilbert” was picked up by several hundred newspapers … and, at its height, the strip appeared in 2,000.

Newspapers began to drop the comic strip in 2023 after Adams advised white people to “get the f*** away” from Black people in a controversial podcast episode. Scott posited his commentary on “wokeness” was why the comic strip was cut.

“Sinners” star Miles Caton is riding high — telling us the horror hit’s box office heat and awards buzz have been blessings across the board … especially in his DMs!

We caught up with the actor outside ‘Kimmel!’ on Monday, and he tells us he’s beyond hyped the movie’s getting its flowers … and yeah, he’s feeling the love too, with his socials officially popping off the hook.

He also weighs in on whether he’s surprised the flick didn’t rack up even more trophies, despite the film already snagging two Golden Globes … and trust us, his response is worth the watch.
