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.

Given its history, it's likely that Law & Order will recover from the less-than-stellar episodes so far this season, but one wonders whether it will finally run out of cases to dramatize. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

04/29/2019 It follows the same formula from past seasons so this means it is brilliant with great acting and very well-paced. There is a stronger running story than the last couple of seasons with an emotional farewell at the end. Sometimes, it can get gimmicky but overall it is another good season for the ever-growing show. See more Read all reviews
