Watch: Florence Henderson Begs for "Law & Order" Guest Role

Who knew Mrs. Brady had such a dark side?

I caught up with Florence Henderson the other day and, much to my surprise, she revealed that she wants to guest star on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.

As something like a serial killer or crazy grandmother type?

"Yeah, wouldn't that be awesome," the television icon said at the Emmy Awards Performers Peer Group Celebration at the Montage Beverly Hills. "Or maybe I could be Mariska Hargitay's mother or grandmother."

Would probably have to be grandmother since Olivia Benson's mom is dead. "I could have gotten rid of the mom—I'm the real mom," Henderson said.

Oh, my.

"I'm totally obsessed with [Law & Order]," Henderson said. "I can't wait for the new ones to start."

If Henderson does make it onto the show (fingers-crossed!) she'll join a long list of notable guests, including Carol Burnett, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Cynthia Nixon, Elizabeth Banks, Robin Williams, Ian Somerhalder, Amanda Seyfried, Angela Lansbury, Bradley Cooper, Ludacris, Kathy Griffin, John Stamos and Rita Wilson.
