Is Law & Order: SVU New Tonight? (March 27, 2025)

Stay caught up with Benson and the squad by watching new episodes of Law & Order: SVU on NBC.

By Jessica White

Captain Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay) has been pounding the pavement on Season 26 of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats to see where the action heads next. With Benson and her fearless squad on the case, they always deliver justice, and it's no wonder — Benson's perfected the art of kicking criminal butt after 26 years on the force.

How to Watch

Watch Law & Order: Special Victims Unit Thursdays at 9/8c on NBC and next day on Peacock.

"It's so beautiful to have the privilege to actually watch the evolution," Hargitay told TODAY anchors while thinking of her many years as Benson. "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."

​"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."
