With us now officially into the winter, we are getting closer to finally scoring an official Law & Order: Organized Crime season 5 premiere date. With that, is it about to be announced?

Well, first and foremost, let’s share a reminder that moving forward, things with the Christopher Meloni series are going to be very-much different. The plan is for these episodes to stream on Peacock rather than NBC, which is exciting from a content perspective. Streaming services will allow a lot more leeway when it comes to episode length and also the sort of stories that can be told; of course, it remains to be seen just how much the show wants to push the envelope.

Now when it comes to a premiere date, all we can really say is this: Peacock likely has it planned already, and it would not come as a shock if episodes arrive while the other shows within the greater Law & Order franchise are still on the air. This allows for better cross-promotion, especially if you want to feature characters across multiple shows. After all, what better way to get people checking out Law & Order: Organized Crime than having Olivia Benson show up? Fingers crossed on that.

Odds are, we are at least going to get a season 5 premiere date announced over the winter, if not have an opportunity to watch the show itself. We recognize that the move to streaming means a smaller episode count than we’ve had on occasion in the past. Yet, at the same time a silver lining is that it will allow this show to be a little bit more serialized, something that we think is actually rather helpful here when the dust settles.
