Law And Order SVU Reaches 600th Episode Milestone

Law and Order Special Victims Unit aired its 600th episode on Thursday night in a celebration of its long-running cast and crew.

Cast And Crew Celebrate Long Run

Dick Wolf gathered the entire cast and crew for an actual dinner party after the Universal Television series wrapped production. Mariska Hargitay and Dick Wolf have worked together since the show debuted in 1999 according to Variety reports. At the start of the evening, Wolf addressed the crowd and stated that this accomplishment would not be repeated. Hargitay stated that reaching this number feels unreal because it defies expectations for a show running for so long.

Episode Plot Involves Old Case

Showrunner Michele Fazekas penned the milestone episode, while Brenna Malloy helmed the direction. Gwen Sharpe, a jury consultant, persuades Benson to reconsider an older case concerning a 1998 rape and murder. At first, Stabler paused since he did not pursue clues that might have exposed the reality sooner. He ultimately joins Benson to help dig deeper and put the right person behind bars during their road trip.

Guest Stars Thrive On Set

Hargitay noted that guest stars thrive in the environment created by the main cast over the last 600 episodes. She enjoys creating an environment where individuals feel secure enough to experiment with novel acting techniques. The set remains serious while allowing actors to play important stories without playing around with the material. People are happy to be there and compliment the group when they arrive and leave the show.
