LAW & ORDER: SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT: SEASON 07

This award-winning show is a spin-off of NBC's incredibly popular and long-running crime drama, LAW & ORDER. Starring Christopher Meloni and Mariska Hargitay (who won an Emmy for her work on the show) as Detectives Stabler and Benson, SVU focuses on the often shocking world of sex crimes. Rather than spending half the program's hour with the cops and the other half with the lawyers, the series stays with the police and the criminals they pursue for most of the show. Set in New York City, the gripping seventh season's cast features investigators John Munch (Richard Belzer) and Fin Tutuol (Ice-T), psychiatrist George Huang (B.D. Wong), and medical examiner Melinda Warner (Tamara Tunie), as well as an impressive roster of guest stars, including Marcia Gay Harden, Dean Cain, Brittany Snow, and Mark McGrath.
