To date, <em>SVU<\/em>\u00a0has been sold to more than 250 territories around the world.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Telegdy and George Cheeks, co-chairmen of NBC Entertainment, said: \u201cWe tip our cap to Dick Wolf, Mariska Hargitay and the amazing cast and crew of <em>SVU<\/em>, who now all go into the record book. This incredible run is an example of what happens when producers, writers and actors all come together and create a show that, year after year, speaks to its audience in a powerful way. We couldn\u2019t be more proud of this remarkable achievement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs <em>SVU<\/em>\u00a0moves into its third decade, Mariska has become an iconic figure as a star, advocate and crusader for women,\u201d said creator and executive producer Dick Wolf. \u201cShe is an enduring champion of the movement to end sexual violence, and dozens of episodes have dealt with the very same issues that have shifted into the spotlight in this country in the past two years. Mariska is a delight as number one on the call sheet and, to me, a true friend.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m deeply proud to be a part of this groundbreaking show and humbled to make television history today,\u201d said lead actress Mariska Hargitay. \u201cThe longevity and continued success of <em>SVU<\/em>\u00a0is a testament not only to the show\u2019s powerful storytelling and ability to connect with viewers but to its necessity. We have told important stories for 20 years, and we will continue to tell them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With NBC&#8217;s renewal of Law &amp; Order: Special Victims Unit for a 21st season, the drama sets a new record as the longest-running prime-time live-action series in U.S. TV history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":9432,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[3012,357],"class_list":["post-11027","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-law-order-special-victims-unit","tag-nbc","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Law &amp;
