What time is ‘Law & Order’ premier crossover event? Live stream ‘SVU,’ ‘Organized Crime,’ TV info

The “Law & Order” premier event debuts Thursday, Sept. 22. The three-hour event will be live streamed on DirecTV (free trial) and fuboTV (free trial).

The long-running police and legal franchise returns with a three-hour crossover event between Law & Order: SVU season 24, Law & Order season 22 and Law & Order: Organized Crime season 3.

The premier starts with an unnamed girl being shot in cold blood. The debut follows the characters from “Law & Order,” “Law & Order: SVU” and Law & Order: OC” for an all-out manhunt. Three teams unite to track down the young girl’s killer, and they soon realize that the case is even more complicated than they thought.

With each piece of evidence comes another layer of mystery, and Det. Frank Cosgrove, Det. Jalen Shaw, Capt. Olivia Benson, Det. Elliot Stabler, Jack McCoy, and ADA Nolan Price certainly have their work cut out for them.

SVU star Mariska Hargitay has called the crossover a “pure miracle,” while Organized Crime’s Christopher Meloni teases it will be “a big, sprawling, epic.”

L&O: Organized Crime season 3 kicks off the night, followed by Special Victims Unit season 24 and the original Law & Order season 22.
