Law & Order S23-24

From legendary Emmy-winning executive producer and creator Dick Wolf, the original Law & Order resumes its classic two-part approach following both the police who investigate crime and the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders. The franchise relaunched in 2021, with Seasons 23-24 being the third and fourth instalments.

Having won six Emmys and 50 awards, television’s defining procedural drama starts its 23rd season in the wake of a murder on campus, examining the line between free speech and hate speech at a university. Meanwhile, Detective Jalen Shaw (Mehcad Brooks from Supergirl) is still getting used to working with his new partner, Detective Vincent Riley (Reid Scott from Veep).

Returning favourites include District Attorney Jack McCoy (Oscar nominee Sam Waterston), Assistant District Attorney Nolan Price (Critics’ Choice nominee Hugh Dancy) and Lt Kate Dixon (Emmy winner Camryn Manheim).

Emmy nominee Maura Tierney (Twisters, The Affair, ER) joins the cast in S24 as Lieutenant Jessica Brady, while guest stars include Grammy winner Okieriete Onaodowan (Hamilton), Mekhi Phifer (ER) and Katee Sackhoff (The Mandalorian, Battlestar Galactica). There are also two crossover episodes with Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
