Law & Order: SVU trivia works because two decades of cases gave the detectives a huge shared history, from Olivia Benson's rise to captain to the recurring villains and legal battles fans still remember. Questions can cover the SVU squad, the district attorneys who prosecute their cases, and the show's longest-running storylines.

A strong Law & Order: SVU quiz can include Olivia Benson and Mariska Hargitay, Elliot Stabler and Christopher Meloni, Fin Tutuola and Ice-T, Dr. George Huang the unit psychiatrist, ADA Alexandra Cabot, Olivia's adopted son Noah, the show's status as a spin-off of the original Law & Order, the opening narration describing crimes as 'especially heinous,' and Olivia's rise from detective to captain of the unit. It works because fans who watched across the decades know exactly which case, partner or courtroom moment belonged to which era.
