John Stanley San Francisco Chronicle 04/16/2020
4/4
I cannot think of another perennial series that so emotionally engages the viewer. And never wants to let you escape too easily. Go to Full Review Rick Nelson Minneapolis Star Tribune 04/16/2020
Stronger ratings aside, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit can't trump the original "L&O." Is it the show's eeuuhh-inducing sex-crime plot lines? The single-note characters (angry Elliot, wounded Olivia)? The one-dimensional acting (hello, Ice-T)? Go to Full Review John Doyle Globe and Mail 04/15/2020
The series became formulaic and then became just plain ridiculous. Go to Full Review Jane Rackham Radio Times 04/16/2020
It's not often that this branch of the franchise has a comedic air, but the first of tonight's double bill has some laugh-out-loud moments -- mainly as a result of casting comedian Kathy Griffin. Go to Full Review David Butcher Radio Times 04/16/2020
Both SVU and its L&O twin Criminal Intent are precision-engineered procedurals that crank out more narrative satisfaction in an episode than some shows manage in a series. They're sometimes over-macho, but with surprises. Go to Full Review Stuart Galbraith DVDTalk.com 04/16/2020
3.5/5
Though not quite as good as the show that inspired its production, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit holds its own as slickly-made, involving drama. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
