Everyone Should Watch Law & Order SVU

 The reason I’ve been an avid fan for years is simple: The storylines, which hyper focus on getting justice for victims, are intense. Detective Olivia Benson is much more than just a regular cop. She’s honestly an advocate and an ethical inspiration. The show perfectly depicts the essential teamwork between the detectives and an assistant district attorney, who is equally determined to help the victims and put together strong cases. And I think it’s safe to say that every viewer is, thanks to this concerted effort,incredibly invested in every single outcome. 

I think Law & Order: The Special Victims Unit stands out from regular crime shows because it dives deep into the emotional and mental scars left by victimization For me, the series’ core mission is the restorative journey, depicting how my favorite legal and investigative professionals actively assist survivors in regaining their agency and strength.The show really digs into courage and fairness, shining a light on some heavy societal issues, especially abuse In the end, SVU really digs deep into the strength of people and the push for change, which is why it’s so captivating to me.

I would rate this show a 10/10. You can watch it on Peacock, Disney+, fuboTV, Sling TV, Amazon Prime Video, YouTube, YouTube TV, Fandango at Home, Apple TV, or Hulu.
