I have watched this for decades I love the show it doesn’t just follow all the other police shows. I love the characters. Please don’t stop making new episodes. I like that it isn’t just a run of the mill show.NCIS isn’t the same type of show. I watch both shows they are not just alike. Keep making more of NYPD SVU.
Agreed need to end been around at least 30 years ago old show crime ever final season goodbye never into franchise love NCIS better than this. Coronavirus been worst than ever awful that put in tv complete made up aggravated.
Haven’t watched this in years…. The stories are worse than watching the news. Why would they think people want to see this year after year?
