I still think the OG S1 cast was the best, and the writing was stellar, the look MUCH more gritty NYC. Quite a few of those early episodes (I'm thinking especially of "Out of the Half-Light" and "Everybody's Favorite Bagman") would feel right at home on stage.

Law and Order has been around since before the internet basically.

Since before the Clinton presidency. Before Nirvana’s colossal Nevermind album. Before the first Michael Jackson pedophilia accusation. Before Goodfellas hit theaters.
