Law & Order: Special Victims Unit
CrimeDramaMysteryThriller43 min per episode
In New York City, the detectives of the Special Victims Unit investigate sexual assaults, abuse cases, and other crimes where victims’ testimony can matter as much as the physical evidence. Mariska Hargitay’s Olivia Benson works these cases alongside Elliot Stabler (Christopher Meloni), following leads from interviews and interrogations to arrests and courtroom proceedings. Ice-T’s Fin Tutuola later becomes another key presence on the squad, in a series built around the overlap of police work, prosecution, and the lasting damage these crimes leave behind.
