About Law & Order and the premiere episode of season 24
Law & Order is a crime procedural set in New York that follows cases from the arrests to the trials. Once the New York City detectives investigate crimes and apprehend suspects, the case moves up to the district attorney's office for trial and prosecution. Every episode of the series brings us a new case and a new story while also following the interpersonal relationships between the characters and their personal lives.
The series premiered its 24th season with a new police lieutenant, played by Maura Tierney from The Affair and Twisters. She takes over for the departing Lieutenant Kate Dixon, played by Camryn Manheim. Tony Goldwyn, who joined the series in season 23, will return to his role as D.A. Nicholas Baxter.
The series also stars Mehcad Brooks as Detective Jalen Shaw, Reid Scott as Detective Vincent Riley, Hugh Dancy as Executive Assistant District Attorney Nolan Price, and Odelya Halevi as ADA Samantha Maroun.
The first episode of this season, which is titled Catch & Kill, sees Assistant District Attorney Samantha Maroun taking drastic action to convince an eyewitness to come forward in the case of a murdered Brooklyn prosecutor. On the other hand, Detective Vincent Riley struggles to adjust to the new lieutenant.
Law & Order premieres its episodes exclusively on NBC. However, for those without traditional cable/satellite television, the show can be watched when it airs using live TV streaming services such as FuboTV, Hulu with Live TV, Sling TV, and YouTube TV.
All episodes of Law & Order are available for streaming on Peacock the day after they air on TV.
