Kathy Griffin has always been vocal about loving her “gays,” so it’s only appropriate that she defend them in primetime.

On next Wednesday’s episode of Law & Order: SVU, the comedienne will guest as Babs Duffy - the president, founder, spokeswoman of a lesbian-rights organization. Despite the serious tone of the drama, Griffin still manages to infuse a bit of her famous humor and salty language in the scenes included here. (She also gets a chance to check out A.D.A. Alexandra Cabot.)

For the full episode, make sure your DVRs are set to 10:00 on March 3—SVU‘s new hour. (Thanks, Jay!)
