'Law & Order' moves to 10 p.m. as NBC restructures Thursday lineup for fall 2026

NBC has confirmed that "Law & Order," one of the longest-running dramas in TV history, will shift to a 10 p.m. Thursday time slot for its 26th season this fall, a two-hour move from its traditional 8 p.m. position that some television writers have suggested could make it harder for the series to maintain its audience.
