Law & Order: Special Victims Unit: Season 17 Ratings

Law and Order: SVU ratings (cancel or renew?)It’s hard to believe that Law & Order: SVU has been around for so long but it remains one of NBC’s top scripted series. Many other programs have been cancelled over the years but this one has hung around. Will it be renewed for an 18th season? Time will tell.

Law & Order: SVU follows an elite squad of detectives who investigate sexually based crimes in New York City. This season, the cast includes Mariska Hargitay, Ice-T, Kelli Giddish, Peter Scanavino, and Raul Esparza.
