It may surprise fans just how many current beloved SVU characters entered the Law & Order universe after the first season.
The original cast of Law & Order included Mariska Hargitay, Christopher Meloni, Dann Florek, Richard Belzer, Michelle Hurd, and Dean Winters.
Each SVU detective since had brought something new to the Squad, but many fans would agree that the original cast of Law & Order: SVU was responsible for instantly getting fans hooked.
