In the eight months since the LAW & ORDER franchise expanded to include SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT spinoff ORGANIZED CRIME, there have been a number of crossovers…but nothing quite as big as the two-hour “People vs. Richard Wheatley” (SVU) and “The Christmas Episode” (OC) event.
On top of having major ramifications for the franchise, “People vs. Richard Wheatley” also served as the most extensive cast overlap thus far: OC’s Christopher Meloni, Danielle Moné Truitt, Dylan McDermott, and Tamara Taylor appeared on SVU, while former SVU regular Raúl Esparza also reprised his role of Barba.
