Law & Order SVU: Season 1 DVD Review
Overview
"Law & Order: SVU," nominated for seven Emmys during its first five seasons, is a continuing triumph of NBC's groundbreaking "Law & Order" franchise. Created by the renowned Dick Wolf, known for his work on "Hill Street Blues" and "Miami Vice," this series is filmed in the heart of New York City. It maintains the balanced format of police and courtroom drama that made its predecessor famous, with a specific focus on sexually based offenses.
Plot and Characters
The series revolves around a team of devoted detectives within the Special Victims Unit. Under the leadership of Capt. Donald Cragen (played by Dann Florek), the team tackles complex cases involving crimes such as rape and murder. The unit includes detectives Elliot Stabler (Christopher Meloni), Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay), John Munch (Richard Belzer), and Odafin Tutuola (Ice-T). They work closely with police psychologist Dr. George Huang (B.D. Wong) for insights into the criminal psyche. Once evidence is gathered, Assistant District Attorney Casey Novak (Diane Neal) prosecutes the criminals, ensuring justice is served.
Highlighted Episodes
The Season 1 DVD features several gripping episodes. The premiere episode, "Payback," introduces us to a case where a cab driver is found murdered with disturbing mutilations. As Detectives Stabler and Benson investigate, they uncover the victim's dark past as a rapist. This episode deeply explores Benson’s personal connection to cases like these due to her own history.
Other standout episodes include "Sophomore Jinx," where a college student's murder investigation faces obstacles because of college politics, and "The Third Guy," which delivers unexpected twists as an elderly woman's assault case unfolds differently than initially suspected.
