An epic “Law & Order” franchise crossover event that you do not want to miss debuts tonight on NBC!
NBC is delivering a must-see crossover between its iconic two police procedural and law/crime series Law & Order and Law & Order: SVU on Thursday, April 17 from 8-10 p.m. ET/PT.
Over the course of the 2 hour crossover, a mysterious phone call to Capt. Benson of the SVU leads detectives to the scene of a brutal murder. When the SVU and the 2-7 uncover a pattern of rape and murder targeting marginalized women, Carisi and ADA Price team up to charge the suspect with multiple crimes.
The buzz worthy premiere night will again reunite long time Law & Order franchise fan favorites Mariska Hargitay as Detective Olivia Benson and Christopher Meloni as Detective Elliot Stabler.
Combined, the two series have reached 38.4 million total viewers across linear and digital platforms this season and are having their best seasons ever on Peacock, posting double and triple-digit increases, respectively, vs. last season (35-day viewing).
