Now in its 25th season, "Law & Order" is among the longest-running scripted primetime TV shows. The 24th season ended in a dramatic cliffhanger as the DNA of a man on trial for murder matches a cold case – the brutal murder of the sister of assistant district attorney Samantha Maroun (Odelya Halevi). After Maroun goes too far in helping a witness identify the suspect, his testimony is inadmissible, so the suspect goes free. When the suspect is then found dead, could Maroun have had anything to do with it? New episodes of "Law & Order" air Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET on NBC.
