Velasco tries to persuade an unwilling witness to testify in court. Here’s what you were missing! Is Season 24 Episode 5 of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit airing tonight? On Thursday, October 20, this episode will NOT air.

So, what is NBC airing tonight in Law & Order SVU’s time slot? Here is the response to that question. You’ll still get an episode of Law & Order SVU tonight, according to the TV guide listings. It simply will not be a new one. The sixth episode of season 23 was titled “THE 500th EPISODE”.

According to NBC, “Amaro asks the SVU for help in clearing a convict’s name and brings a man from Benson’s past back into her life.”

A home invasion and kidnapping previously led the SVU to a shocking discovery in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit Season 24 Episode 4. A couple kidnapped women and girls and held them as the leader’s concubines. When the SVU team discovered them, they discovered a murderous web in which one of the captive girls murdered the leader. The SVU and the DA’s office refused to press charges against the captives…

Warning… There are speculations and spoilers below!

In Law & Order: Special Victims Unit Season 24 Episode 5, a man requested that SVU investigate a lifeguard who he suspected of preying on his sister. He was the chief lifeguard and was known for hiring young, attractive, but inexperienced women as lifeguards. He agreed to let them get the job in exchange for sex with him.

The SVU team tracked down a victim who described him pinning her down and sexually assaulting her. Worse, because he hired unqualified lifeguards for the job, there were deaths in the water as a result of his carelessness.

Of course, there are a lot of important topics we want to cover in this article, but we should start with the bad news: According to some NBC listings, as of this writing, there will be no new episode of the Mariska Hargitay series on October 20. Instead, we may have to wait until the 27th to see “Breakwater.”

What is the cause of this break, especially so early in the season? We believe it has several components. To begin, keep in mind that Law & Order: SVU airs concurrently with the other two shows of the franchise, and the trio must have their stories ready to air together at the same time. There may be some difficulties.

Also, keep in mind that this trio took part in that massive crossover event earlier this year, which we believe took more time to create than your average episode. Finally, there may simply be a motive to save upcoming episodes of these shows for the important rating time of November, February, and May.

We know that Kelli Giddish’s last episode as a series regular is scheduled for later this year, and we’ll be honest: we’re not looking forward to it. After all, we don’t want that to happen! As of this writing, there are no extra details about episode 5, but that should change over the next week as more information becomes available.

Release Date For Law And Order Special Victims Unit Season 24 Episode 5

Law And Order SVU season 24, episode 5, “Breakwater,” will air on NBC on October 27 at 9 p.m. ET/PT instead of October 20. It’s conceivable. Finally, those producers are deferring new episodes of these series until the peak viewing months of November, February, and May.
