Switching Gears: A New Show Takes Over Thursday Nights

Thursday nights on NBC have been a prime spot for crime dramas, but this fall, things are changing. The popular show Law & Order: Organized Crime, which made a comeback in 2022 and won many fans, is no longer part of the Thursday night lineup. Instead, it's moving to Peacock, a streaming platform that already has another hit crime drama, Law & Order: SVU. Mehcad Brooks, who plays Detective Jalen Shaw in Law & Order, shared his thoughts on this change during an interview with CinemaBlend. He believes the new show taking over the post-SVU time slot is a great fit and trusts NBC's decision-making process. Even though some fans might miss Law & Order: Organized Crime, there are still plenty of crime dramas to enjoy on Thursday nights. A new series called Found, which premiered during the fall season, has quickly grabbed viewers' attention with its unique take on traditional police procedurals. The show's creator, Nkechi Okoro Carroll, is known for her storytelling skills and innovative approach. The move of Law & Order: Organized Crime to Peacock isn’t surprising, considering the show’s success after its initial run on NBC. However, fans are still waiting for news about when Season 5 will premiere on the streaming platform as a Peacock original. As the new season begins, it's clear that Thursday nights will remain packed with crime drama action. With Law & Order: SVU and Found leading the way, viewers have many options to choose from. Whether you enjoy procedurals or prefer something different, there’s definitely something for everyone in this lineup.
