We’re into the new year, and that means a lot of shows are on their way back to our screens. In some bad news, there still isn’t a new episode of Law & Order season 24 on NBC tonight, Thursday, Jan. 2.
This is just a little bit of bad news. Thursdays are slowly turning back to normal, and it won’t be long before we do get some new episodes. In some great news, we will get a rerun on tonight.
Which episode of Law & Order will air tonight?
NBC is putting on a rerun of Law & Order season 24, episode 2. Titled “The Perfect Man,” the episode focuses on the murder of an AI dating app founder. This was a huge episode for franchise fans, as Olivia Benson came into the episode, but not to help Price and Maroun when the case goes to court. She decides to help the defense, because she can see a victim within the case.
The episode will air at 8 p.m. ET/PT tonight, Thursday, Jan. 2. It’s the usual time for Law & Order, making it clear that NBC isn’t regretting its Thursday night lineup just yet.
When will Law & Order return with new episodes?
With us now into the new year, we’re now looking at when our favorite shows return. After all, we know that it usually happens in January, right? That is certainly the case for the majority of NBC shows.
Law & Order season 24 returns with new episodes on Thursday, Jan. 16. That does mean we’ll likely get another week of reruns next Thursday—that is if there isn’t some sort of special programming to mark the loss of Former President Jimmy Carter—but it won’t be too long before we see the teams back in action.
The episode will see District Attorney Baxter take the stand. The case involves the murder of a young man, who is pushed in front of a moving train. The trial ends up hinging on a piece of legislation that Baxter has written, which means Price needs to convince him to testify to the way the legislation can be used and abused. While Baxter takes the stand, will he go through with what Price wants or will it turn the case on its head?
"When the trial hinges on a piece of legislation that Baxter wrote, Price must convince him to testify to its uses and abuses."
Law & Order returns on Thursday, Jan. 16 at 8/7c on NBC. Catch up with the series with Peacock.
