Lives hang in the balance as detectives and prosecutors pursue justice in New York City. In cases ripped from the headlines, police investigate serious and often deadly crimes, weighing the evidence and questioning the suspects until someone is taken into custody. The district attorney's office then builds a case to convict the perpetrator by proving the person guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Working together, these expert teams navigate all sides of the complex criminal justice system to make New York a safer place -- and keep the worst offenders off the streets.

Stephen C @bob25009 Jun 2 22 successful National Broadcasting Company episodes. See more Matt G @RT78942314 Aug 23 L and O continues to deliver as the template of how to make an 8 out of 10 compelling tv show. I like the new actors: Van Buren is good and shows off her quick wits/tactical knowledge in giving the detectives a little nudge. Clair Kincaid is getting better every season! She always had a charm to her but her performances are improving with every episode. Logan/Brisco/Stone are all the heavy hitters of the show up to this point in my opinion. I have said this before ... but I am amazed at how consistent this show is. It's pretty much 8's across the board with an occasional 9 here and there but rarely a 7 and never anything below that. We are losing Ben Stone at the end of the season --- i'll be interested to see the new Attorney in the upcoming season. See more Read all reviews
