Law & Order: Special Victims Unit is back for its 25th season set to premiere on NBC Thursday, Jan. 18 at 9/8c following the season 23 premiere of Law & Order.

According to NBC, no changes to the current Law & Order: SVU cast have been announced for the new season. The cast currently includes Mariska Hargitay, Ice T, Peter Scanavino, Octavio Pisano and Molly Burnett.

During episode one of the new season, as the squad celebrates the birth of Rollins and Carisi’s child, another child goes missing in broad daylight.

Where can I watch Law & Order: Special Victims Unit season 25?

Although the new season will premiere on NBC, those without basic cable can live stream new episodes of Law & Order: SVU the same day they premiere with FuboTV or DirecTV Stream. Both offer free trials for new users who can watch for free before committing to a paid subscription.

Those willing to wait can also stream new episodes the day after they premiere with a Peacock subscription.

What is the difference between FuboTV and DirecTV Stream?

Both FuboTVand DirecTV Stream are set up like any other streaming service, but rather than offering exclusively on-demand content, they both offer a plethora of exclusive live TV channels.

FuboTV considers itself a sports-focused live streaming service, but overall, its standard package comes with over 100 live TV channels for $74.99 a month after its free trial. These channels include ESPN, ABC, NBC, CBS, TLC, MTV and much more.

FuboTV also comes with a variety of shows and movies users can watch on-demand along with the option to record your favorite TV shows.

DirecTV Stream is similar to FuboTV in that it offers many of the same channels and features. At $69.99 a month after its free trial, the base package comes with a little over 75 live TV channels.
