One Law & Order: SVU Season 27 Line Spells Benson’s Downfall

After nearly thirty years on air, Law & Order: SVU is now the longest-running scripted primetime series. It remains a key part of NBC’s plans for the 2025-2026 television season. Following the surprising death of Captain Cragen at the start of season 27, Olivia Benson is the last original cast member, and the show has chronicled her development as a person and a professional over the years. Now the Captain of the Manhattan Special Victims Unit, she’s still deeply dedicated to her work.
