NBC’s Law & Order: SVU is keeping its record streak going. The venerable crime drama starring Mariska Hargitay, the longest-running primetime drama on broadcast, will be back next fall for its 28th season.

This is not a fresh renewal for SVU. While NBC last May announced the series’ pickup for the 2025-26 season, SVU had received a two-season renewal, the second year of which had not been made public. Michele Fazekas, who joined last season as SVU‘s first female showrunner, is expected to continue in the role.

Defying gravity — and age — Law & Order: SVU is having its best season on Peacock, +27% vs. last season, which had set the previous high water mark for the show’s performance on the platform where it is a Top 10 mainstay and ranks as NBC’s most watched next-day series.
