From TVGUIDE 12/17-23 issue

As conspiracy theorist Sgt. John Munch of NBC's Law & Order:Special Victims Unit, Richard Belzer is pretty good at cracking cases. Bit the 63-year-old actor has yet to solve the mystery of the missing Munch. According to Belzer, his contract was reduced from 22 episodes to 13 this season without explanation. "I'm as mystified as the fans by the cutback," says Belzer, who originated the role on Homicide. SVU executive Neal Baer, who plans to feature the character in two episodes in January, insists Belzer "isn't going anywhere."

3. Me, too.

I hope his outspoken politics aren't why he's been cut back on his contract. His character makes the show.
