From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit originally
centered almost exclusively around the detectives of the
Special
Victims Unit in a fictional version of the 16th Precinct of the
New York City Police
Department. In the style of the original
Law &
Order, episodes are often "ripped from the headlines" or
loosely based on a real crime that received media attention. The
show stars
Christopher Meloni as Detective
Elliot Stabler, a
senior detective in the
Manhattan SVU, and
Mariska
Hargitay as his partner, Detective
Olivia Benson, a rookie to the unit who
is the child of a rape. As the series progressed, additional
supporting characters were added as allies of the detectives in the
Manhattan
District Attorney's office and the medical
examiner's office. Typical episodes follow the detectives and their
allies as they investigate and prosecute sexually based
offenses.
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit is currently the
highest-rated series of the
Law &
Order franchise, and is one of NBC's top rated shows. The
series has been nominated for and won numerous awards, including an
Emmy for
Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for Hargitay, the first
Emmy to be received by an actor on any
Law & Order
series.
Series
overview
|
"In the criminal justice system, sexually based offenses are
considered especially heinous. In New York City, the dedicated
detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an
elite squad known as the Special Victims Unit. These are their
stories."
|
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit follows the
detectives and prosecutors associated with the
New York City Police
Department's 16th precinct, otherwise known as the
Special
Victims Unit, as they investigate sexually based offenses.
Originally the show focused around the senior detectives,
Elliot Stabler
and
John Munch, and
their partners,
Olivia Benson and Brian Cassidy. The
detectives were supervised by veteran Captain
Donald Cragen and
received support from Detectives Monique Jeffries and Ken
Briscoe.
[1]
When Cassidy transferred to Narcotics after thirteen episodes,
Jeffries partnered with Munch until the beginning of the second
season, when he was permanently partnered with Detective
Fin Tutuola.
[2][3]
The unit did not receive a full time assistant district attorney
until the second season, when
Alexandra Cabot was assigned full time
to work with the detectives.
[3]
After Cabot's departure in season five, she is replaced by
Casey Novak and Kim
Greylek before returning to the series in season ten.
[4][5][6]
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit focuses on crimes
of a sexual nature. While the victim is often murdered, this is not
always the case, and victims often play prominent roles in
episodes. The series frequently uses stories that are "ripped from
the headlines" or based on real crimes. Such episodes take a real
crime and fictionalize it by changing the details.
[7]
Episodes
Main article: List of
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit episodes
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit is currently in
its eleventh season. Each season consists of 19 to 25 episodes;
each episode lasts approximately sixty minutes including
commercials. There have been 235 episodes between 1999 and
2010.
Crossovers
During the first season,
Law & Order: Special Victims
Unit crossed over with the original
Law & Order. In the episode "Entitled (Part 1)," the
detectives investigate a shooting and initially focus on the
girlfriend of the victim. Another shooting occurs, however, and the
detectives find a connection with a case being investigated by the
27th precinct. The episode is concluded in an episode of the
original series, though the
SVU episode could potentially
be a stand alone episode.
[8][9][10]
The show crossed over with
Law & Order: Trial by
Jury in season six with the episode "Night". Benson and
Stabler investigate the rape of a young
Haitian girl with a bad heart that causes her
death. The duo trace the murder to a loner who is a member of a
powerful family with political ties. When Novak is assaulted,
Arthur Branch
reassigns the case to ADA Tracey Kibre. The episode is continued in
the
Trial by Jury episode "Day."
[11][12][13]
During the seventh season, the series once again crossed over
with
Law & Order. The episode "Design" features a
mother/daughter con artist team who are able to escape justice for
their crimes. They surface again in the original series' sixteenth
series episode "Flaw" when Detectives
Joe Fontana and
Ed Green investigate the
murder of a man who died with a
cell phone in his hand
on which he was attempting to call Benson.
[14][15][16]
Russian
adaptation
In 2007, the Russian production company Studio 2B purchased the
rights to create an adaptation of
Law & Order: Special
Victims Unit for Russian television. Titled
Закон и
порядок: отдел оперативных расследований (
Law & Order:
Division of Field Investigation), the series starred Alice
Bogart as Major Olga Bobrova. The series follows a unit of
investigators in
Moscow whose
job it is to investigate crimes of a sexual nature. Twelve episodes
of 48 minutes each were produced and aired on
NTV.The series is produced by Pavel Korchagin,
Felix Kleiman, and Edward Verzbovski and directed by Dmitry
Brusnikin. The screenplays are written by Efim Ostrovsky, Sergei
Kuznetsov, Elena Karavaeshnikova, and Maya Shapovalova.
[17]
Production
History
and development
The idea for
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit
originated with the 1986 case of
Robert Chambers, who strangled
a woman during what he claimed to be consensual "rough sex" in
Manhattan's Central Park. The
crime inspired
Dick Wolf
to write the story for the
season one
episode of
Law
& Order titled "Kiss the Girls and Make them Die."
Even after writing the episode, however, the case continued to
haunt Wolf, who wanted to go deeper into the psychology of crimes
to examine the role of human sexuality.
[18]
The original title of the show was
Sex Crimes,
reflecting the sexual nature of the crimes depicted on the show.
Initially there was concern among the producers that, should
Sex Crimes fail, identifying the new show with the
Law
& Order franchise could hurt the original show.
Additionally,
Ted
Kotcheff wanted to create a new series that was not dependent
upon the original series for success. Wolf felt, however, that it
was important and commercially desirable to have "Law & Order"
in the title, and he initially proposed the title of the show be
Law & Order: Sex Crimes.
Barry Diller, then head of
Studios USA, was concerned
about the title, however, and it was changed to
Law &
Order: Special Victims Unit to reflect the actual unit of the
NYPD that handles
sexually based offenses.
[19]
The first episode, "Payback," premiered on
NBC on September 20, 1999.
[20]
Filming
Like the original series, the majority of
Law & Order:
Special Victims Unit is filmed on location in
New York City. New
York is Dick Wolf's hometown and a city of contrasts, inspiring
artists and architects while struggling with how to keep its eight
million inhabitants and visitors safe. In all five of New York's
boroughs can be found enticingly rich neighborhoods or those that
are the epitome of urban decay. The
NYPD encounters
calamities on a daily basis that would make most people cringe with
horror and, as a result, everything needed for the show is easily
accessible. This backdrop provides the writers a supply of ideal
locations to choose from.
[21]
When searching for a place to film the interiors of the show,
the producers discovered that there were no suitable studio spaces
available in New York. As a result, a space was chosen in nearby
North Bergen, New Jersey that
had sat empty for some time. With an air-conditioning system,
adequate parking, and 53,000 square feet of stage area, the
producers felt the New Jersey location made sense. Despite the fact
that indoor scenes are filmed in New Jersey, the crew still
consider the show a New York based show since the majority of
outdoor filming still takes place in New York.
[22]
Broadcast
history
The show originally aired on Monday nights at 9:00 p.m. ET for
the first nine episodes, from September 20 through November 29,
1999. It was then shifted to Friday nights at 10 p.m. ET on
January 7, 2000, and remained in that time slot through the end of
Season 4 on May 16, 2003.
SVU was placed in its current
time slot for the Season 5 premiere on September 23, 2003 Tuesday
nights at 10:00 p.m. ET and occasionally runs previous shows on
Saturday nights at 10:00 p.m. ET. The
USA Network also runs previous episodes on
weekday afternoons, generally in a block from 3 to 5 p.m. ET.
The series vacated its Tuesday 10:00 p.m. ET slot in fall 2009
when NBC began a primetime weeknight
Jay Leno series.
Law and Order: Special
Victims Unit currently airs on Wednesday nights at 9:00 p.m.
ET, while CTV will still air SVU on Tuesdays at 10:00 in Canada.
The eleventh season premiered its new time slot on September 23,
2009.
[23] After
the
2010 Winter Olympics,
SVU
will be moving up an hour to 10:00 p.m. ET, starting March 3,
2010.
Casting
and characters
Main articles: List of
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit characters and List of Law
& Order: Special Victims Unit cast members
Casting for the lead characters of
Law & Order: Special
Victims Unit occurred in the spring of 1999. Dick Wolf, along
with officials from
NBC and Studios
USA were at the final auditions for the two leads at
Rockefeller
Center. The last round had been narrowed down to six finalists.
For the female lead, Detective
Olivia Benson,
Samantha Mathis,
Reiko
Aylesworth, and
Mariska Hargitay were being
considered. For the male role, Detective
Elliot Stabler, the finalists were
Tim Matheson,
Nick Chinlund, and
Christopher Meloni. Meloni and
Hargitay had auditioned in the final round together and, after the
actors left, there was a moment of dead silence, after which Wolf
blurted out, "Oh well. There's no doubt who we should
choose–Hargitay and Meloni." Wolf believed the duo had the perfect
chemistry together from the first time he saw them together, and
they ended up being his first choice.
Garth Ancier, then head of NBC
Entertainment, agreed, and the rest of the panel assembled began
voicing their assent.
[24]
The first actor to be cast for the show was
Dann Florek.
.^ Jesse McCartney Add comments Jesse McCartney guest stars on Law and Order SVU tomorrow night (10/9c on NBC).- Jesse McCartney on Law and Order SVU tomorrow | Celebrity Mound 30 January 2010 2:35 UTC www.celebritymound.com [Source type: FILTERED WITH BAYES]
He maintained a friendly relationship with Wolf,
however, and went on to direct three episodes of the original
series as well as occasionally guest starring on the show. Shortly
after Florek reprised his role for
Exiled: A Law & Order
Movie, he received a call to be on
Sex Crimes.
[25]
Initially reluctant to the idea, he eventually agreed to star on
the show as Cragen on the assurance that he would not be asked to
audition for the role.
[26]
Shortly after the cancellation of
Homicide: Life on the
Street,
Richard Belzer heard that
Benjamin Bratt
had left
Law & Order. Belzer called his manager and
instructed his manager to call Wolf and pitch the idea for Belzer's
character from
Homicide,
John Munch, to become
Lennie Briscoe's
new partner since they had previously teamed in three
Homicide crossovers. Wolf loved the idea, but had already
cast
Jesse L.
Martin as Briscoe's new partner. The idea was reconfigured,
however, to have Munch on
Law & Order: Special Victims
Unit instead.
[26]
Since the character of Munch was created by
David Simon and adapted for
Homicide by
Tom
Fontana and
Barry Levinson, the addition of Munch to
the cast required the consent of all three. The appropriate
agreements were reached and, while Fontana and Levinson agreed to
wave their royalty rights, contracts with Simon require that he be
paid royalties for any new show that Munch is a main character in;
as a result, Simon receives royalties every time Munch appears in
an episode of the show.
[27]
Dean Winters
was cast as Munch's partner, Brian Cassidy, at the insistence of
Belzer. Belzer looked at Winters as a sort of little brother, and
told Wolf, "Well, I'll do this new show of yours,
SVU,
only if you make Dean Winters my partner."
[26]
Wolf did make Winters Belzer's partner, but he was contractually
obligated to his other show at the time, the
HBO drama
Oz. Since the role on
Law &
Order: Special Victims Unit was only initially meant to be a
few episodes, Winters was forced to leave when it was time to film
Oz again.
[28]
The void left by Winters' departure was filled for the remainder of
the season by
Michelle Hurd as Detective Monique
Jefferies, a character who Wolf promised that, despite starting out
as a minor character with one scene in the pilot, would eventually
develop. The character did not develop, however, and doubts
surfaced about whether Jefferies was the right character to be
Munch's permanent partner. Hurd left the show at the beginning of
the second season to join the cast of
Leap Years.
[29]
Munch's permanent partner came in the form of
rapper turned actor
Ice-T. Ice-T had originally worked with Wolf on
New
York Undercover and
Exiled. Ice-T originally
agreed to do only four episodes of
Law & Order: Special
Victims Unit, but he quickly gained affection for the ensemble
nature of the cast. He relocated to
New York City before his four episode
contract was up, and stayed with the show as Munch's permanent
partner, Detective
Fin
Tutuola, since.
[30]
Stephanie
March had never appeared on television before being cast on
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit nor did she watch
much television. Nevertheless, March was cast as Assistant District
Attorney
Alexandra Cabot at the beginning of
season two but still believed that, due to the grim nature of the
series, it would be short lived. She stayed with the series for
three seasons, however, and left when she believed she had reached
the natural conclusion of where the character was likely to
develop. She would later reprise the character as a guest
appearance in the fifth season and as a regular character on the
short-lived Wolf series,
Conviction, where she was
promised more to do. She returned to the show in the tenth season
after the departure of
Michaela McManus from the cast when
Neal Baer proposed Cabot
receive a character arc to revitalize the second part of the season
and would remain for season eleven.
[31][32]
Diane Neal had
previously guest starred on
Law & Order: Special Victims
Unit in the second season before being cast as Cabot's
replacement,
Casey
Novak, in the fifth season. Neal remained with the show through
the end of the ninth season.
[33]
Tamara Tunie was
cast as
Medical Examiner Melinda Warner in
season two after working with Wolf previously on
New York
Undercover,
Feds, and
Law &
Order, and proved popular enough to be moved to the show's
opening credits in the seventh season.
[34]
B.D.
Wong was asked to film four episodes as Dr.
George Huang, a
FBI forensic psychiatrist and
criminal profiler on loan to the Special
Victims Unit. After his four episodes, he was asked to stay on with
the show.
[35]
After starring in the Dick Wolf-produced
Bury My Heart at
Wounded Knee and guest starring as Detective Chester Lake
in the eighth season, Wolf felt that
Adam Beach would be a good addition to the
cast and asked him to be a permanent member beginning with the
ninth season. Although Beach felt the role was a "dream role," the
character proved unpopular with fans who felt that he was designed
to gradually write out either Richard Belzer or Ice-T and, feeling
there were too many police characters on the show, Beach left the
show after only one season.
[36]
Michaela
McManus was originally felt to be too young for the role of an
ADA before being cast as ADA Kim Greylek in the show's tenth
season. McManus remained with the series only half a season,
however, before departing for unspecified reasons.
[37]
Reception
U.S.
television ratings
SVU premiered on a Monday in 1999. After the November
29 episode, the show was sent to Friday nights where it found its
audience and following its first season became a top 20 show.
Beginning with the fifth season, the show was aired on Tuesdays to
compete with CBS'
Judging Amy and ABC's
NYPD Blue. In recent
years,
SVU has consistently outperformed
Law &
Order in the Nielsen ratings for first run episodes. Despite
this,
SVU has never eclipsed the peak popularity of
Law & Order.
