Chicago TribuneMaureen Ryan
All in all, the show is much better than it was when it was rotely doing “ripped from the headline” stories, which was only a few seasons ago.

A few new faces from last season are back, but the formula remains ironclad, right down to the soaring courtroom rhetoric and McCoy's somewhat suspect ethical calculus. This comfort food remains comfortable, indeed.

Wolf has put snappin' Jack at the center of some of the best episodes of the immortal series' 19th season.
Read Full Review >New York Daily NewsDavid Hinckley
As you would expect from a show entering its 19th season, the acting and the pacing are strong and confident. L&O has always been smart enough to stick with what works.
Read Full Review >TV GuideMatt Roush
With relative rookies Jeremy Sisto and Anthony Anderson solving the crimes and scrappy Linus Roache leading the prosecution (with Alana de la Garza) and butting heads with his boss, Law & Order rarely feels like a show entering its 19th season.
Read Full Review >VarietyBrian Lowry
Although the program has never wasted much time developing characters, the banter between detectives Lupo (Jeremy Sisto) and Bernard (Anthony Anderson) seems even more disposable than usual.
