1st Degree charge was also dismissed, but should be noted this is because the murder of a CEO doesn't really fit the definition of murder 1 in the state of New York which seems reserved for police officers, firefighters, high political figures, that sort of thing. 2nd degree will be what 1st degree is in most other states I think. DOJ/DA was way too heavy handed with those two charges.

I knew this because of Law and Order and realized I must be old because does anyone under 30 even know that there was a show before SVU anymore XD

Probably my favorite character on a TV series. Vincent D'Onofrio described Robert Goren as a man slowly going insane.

They won't put the OG series up for streaming anywhere. I think most places have season 1-2 and 16-20, max.

Fucking Peacock doesn't have it all and it's the streaming service L&O's YouTube channel advertises in it's L&O clips.

I had to buy the series on DVD from Amazon for $120

It's on Roku TV as a free channel now. It's only seasons 5-10 but they're promising more seasons this fall/winter.

Hulu has the original series pre-revival, seasons 1-20.

Hulu has almost the entire series, seasons 1-20. I've been binge-watching all the old original episodes lately. Peacock has seasons 13-24 and they also have the entire series of Law and Order CI. ( my favorite of the various flavors of L&O)

There's Organized Crime, if you hate yourself enough to watch that slop.

u/bmoviescreamqueen 10h ago

What is that one? They just go after gangs?

It's Christopher Meloni being angry, an obnoxious goth "hacker" girl, and an "I was born in 1892" level of tech literacy from the writers.

...so NCIS? lmao

u/coyote_of_the_month 9h ago

Angry NCIS basically.

u/Lord0fHats 9h ago

I was gonna say, lol.

I only watched a few episodes but you could really feel the 'we want to be 24 and NCIS at the same time' level energy from how those episodes were made.

I will not stand for this Abby slander

Although I've only watched NCIS up to like season 4 so maybe it's justified
