September 20, 2024 by  

LAW & ORDER: SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT celebrates its 25th birthday on ​​September 20, a remarkable feat that makes it not only the longest-running primetime drama, but also a place literally thousands of actors have worked. (The series has produced over 550 episodes so far.)

"I was nervous, obviously. I have a very strong theater background. And so all I remember doing was going over my lines, making sure that I could say them backward and forwards. And then once I got to set, I felt so welcomed, and it felt a lot like being on the stage in a sense, right? It's because these actors, crew, everyone is so fantastic at what they do. It felt amazing. It felt like home. And that's not something that you get to say with every opportunity that you get. So I remember just feeling super grateful and calm actually once I got there and it was amazing.
And when they called me to come back [in season 25] I just jumped at the opportunity. I was like, 'Yes, it was my best experience that I've had and I can't wait to continue with more.'" (Photo credit: Screengrab/NBC)

To jump straight to a certain actor, here’s the full list:
