The Law & Order franchise is arguably one of the most successful police procedural crime dramas in television history. What began in 1990 with the original Law & Order, turned into decades of viewers watching episode after episode of investigations and apprehensions of suspects by seasoned detectives. Fast-forward to more than 30 years later, the original series and the first spin-off, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, are still going strong. And things are set to get even stronger, as NBC has decided to renew both.
