Is Law & Order: SVU New Tonight? (December 19, 2024)
Stay caught up with Benson and the squad. Find out when Season 26 of Law & Order: SVU returns on NBC.
As the midseason hiatus of Season 26 of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit continues, fans are growing increasingly eager to see what Captain Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay) gets up to next.
Not only have we seen a new detective make their way to the precinct, but Amanda Rollins (Kelli Giddish) has returned twice after becoming the Sergeant of NYPD's nearby Intelligence Unit — someone should really get Rollins and Chicago P.D.'s Hank Voight (Jason Beghe) on the phone! Amid the intense cases and welcomed guest appearances, some of Benson's crew have landed in criminal crosshairs: Sonny Carisi (Peter Scanavino) interrupted a robbery in progress during SVU's Season 26 fall finale, and fans are eager to check in on him after he was left worse for wear.

"It's so beautiful to have the privilege to actually watch the evolution," Hargitay told TODAY's Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie while chatting about Benson's multi-decade reign. "As I see it and look back, Olivia Benson is sort of a perfect feminist story because we actually see this woman grow into her power."

Where can I watch old episodes of Law & Order: SVU?
All 26 seasons of Law & Order: SVU are available to stream on Peacock, the perfect place to catch up with Benson and the squad.
"I love my job," Hargitay told NBC Insider. "I love going to work every day. I love the community that I'm in. I love my cast, my crew, and I love the intimacy of it all and the fact that we work in a culture that says, 'Let's do the work, let's have a fun time, and best idea wins.' It is such a team. It is such an incredible team, and we rely so much on each other. We're a unit. It's so sacred to me."
