On TV Tonight: New York’s 22nd Season, Special Unit

The unreleased New York: Special Unit choose to be in tune with the times.


Broadcast on November 17 at 10:05 p.m. on RTL-TVI

It will be necessary to make it a reason: the aficionados of New York: Special Unit will not immediately know the end of the story about Tobias Moore (Ian McShane, Deadwood). This media mogul, accused of sexual harassment and victim of a heart attack during his trial in the last episode of the previous batch. The fault, once again, with the Covid pandemic, which had shortened season 21 by four parts. As he began writing the 22nd salvo, Warren Leight, the lead writer of the crime series produced by Dick Wolf, preferred to focus on the aftermath of the health crisis. But also, on the consequences of the protest movement Black Lives Matter, which appeared following the tragic death of George Floyd. ” Our police will probably try to do their job properly, Leight indicated then. But their task will be made much more complicated, and everyone will understand why it is. »

History to give a little breath and hope to their intrigues, the authors are also activated to prepare the return of a key character of the fiction. A comeback that can only shake up Captain Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay), the main heroine, namely that of Detective Elliot Stabler (Christopher Meloni), his former partner absent for ten years. But beware, if their reunion takes place in the 9th episode scheduled in a few weeks, the revenant will continue his investigations elsewhere, in a spin-off entitled Organized crime, moreover currently broadcast on 13th Street. Will they end up having fun together as the fans hope? The future will tell, even if the producers will undoubtedly take their time: to date, Special Unit has already been renewed for two additional rounds.
