About this show

In the criminal justice system the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police who investigate crime and the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories. From Emmy-winning creator Dick Wolf, with its groundbreaking "ripped-from-the-headlines" format, comes the highly-acclaimed, longest-running crime series in television history.

I think this Law and Order was better than all the law and order series Dick Wolf created, I only Pray here brings it back God miss the character Jack McCoy lol. Don't get me wrong Criminal intent was awesome and suv is still amazing but Gosh I seriously can't stand Rollings character she talks back to Lt. Olivia Benson and Sargent Fin like she's their boss and they would have never treated Captain Cragen that way. I truly don't like they way the new ADA Hidii talks and treats LOlivia benson
