Olivia Benson returns in the Law & Order: SVU season 19 premiere. Here’s how you can watch season 19, episode 1 live, on TV and online.

Olivia Benson is back on the job when NBC premieres Law & Order: SVU season 19 this week, and Mariska Hargitay’s character will also be back on the hot seat in Wednesday’s season premiere.

Season 19, episode 1 is called “Gone Fishin” and features some “shocking allegations” made against Olivia Benson that require her former colleague and ex-boyfriend Brian Cassidy (returning guest star Dean Winters) to come back into the fold. Just when you thought Law & Order: SVU couldn’t do anything else to make Benson’s life miserable, SVU season 19 is starting off right there.

Meanwhile, Odafin “Fin” Tutuola (Ice-T) makes ADA Rafael Barba’s (Raul Esparza) life harder when he causes an international incident in pursuit of a rapist. Which absolutely sounds like something he would do. It also makes you wonder how many Advil that Barba has to take every day. He must buy it in bulk by now.

Law & Order: SVU season 19 is also turning the page for the series, which has a new showrunner in Michael Chernuchin (Chicago Justice). SVU fans who want to know more about Chernuchin can read One Chicago Center’s interview with him here.

Here’s how NBC officially describes the episode:

"When Fin crosses international borders to catch a fugitive rapist, a political tug-of-war derails Barba’s legal case. Meanwhile, shocking allegations against Benson lead to the return of an old friend."

And here’s how you can watch “Gone Fishin” live, on TV or via live stream:
