"Everybody loves a good cops-and-robbers story. But I really love vintage Law & Order episodes.
The appeal is complicated. I stumbled on the show when it debuted in 1990, feeling like a TV cop show version of the Al Pacino legal drama And Justice for All — focused on a gritty, trashy vision of New York with an all-male core cast and ripped-from-the-headlines stories where rich people literally got away with murder. The unique format — usually, about half the episode focuses on cops finding a suspect, the other half on prosecutors trying the case — felt revolutionary at the time".

I watched those when they first came out and I had cable. They rarely left you hanging, just interested in what the next show will bring PO1 William "Chip" Nagel

I have watched every episode (at least 3 times each except for the last three seasons or so.) Don't like the newer ones. Linnie is my all time favorite. I like the way they weaved in bit characters who later became stars. S. Epatha Merkerson was a maid in the episode titled "Mushrooms." Jerry Orbach starred as a defense attorney in the episode titled "The Wages of Love."
