Law & Order Thursdays continue on a major roll this week.
The mothership Law & Order continues with a case ripped from the headlines while Law & Order: Special Victims Unit has Rollins on a dangerous undercover assignment.
The big one is Law & Order: Organized Crime bringing the epic Stabler-Wheatley conflict to its dramatic close.
Law & Order Thursdays returned this past week
After a month off due to Winter Olympics, Law & Order Thursdays returned, with the big move being Season 21 of the original Law & Order premiering.
The ratings for the return were good, with 5.5 million total viewers and a 0.7 rating in the 18-49 demo. Law & Order: Special Victims Unit was just behind it with 5 million viewers and a 0.7 rating, while Law & Order: Organized Crime saw a slump with 3.4 million viewers and a 0.5 rating.
The shows did have some notable storylines, like Law & Order: Special Victims Unit saw Rollins and Carisi went public with their relationship amid a case.
Law & Order: Organized Crime continued the clash of Stabler and Richard Wheatley, culminating in Wheatley blacking out all of New York City.
The shows will thus be kicking off March with more drama as the mothership Law & Order starts off the night.
