Law & Order Reveals Premiere Date for SVU

NBC Universal reveals the premiere dates for fall slate, including Law & Order and Law & Order: SVU

By Matthew Aguilar

NBC Universal pulled the curtain back on its full 2024 fall lineup, delivering the much-anticipated premiere dates for the flagship Law & Order series and Law & Order: SVU, as well as a host of the network's returning favorites like The Voice, the Chicago franchise, The Voice, The Irrational, and more. NBC's premieres kick off on September 23rd and continue to roll out over the next two months, though Law & Order's Thursday lineup will return on October 3rd. As in previous seasons, this will have Law & Order in the 8 PM EST time slot, while SVU will follow next at 9 PM EST. This will mark the first time Law & Order: Organized Crime will not follow SVU, as Found will be in that time slot after Organized Crime was made exclusive to Peacock.
