Hargitay, who executive produces “SVU” alongside Dick Wolf, Michelle Fazekas, Kenneth Brown, Rebecca McGill, Anastasia Puglisi, and Peter Jankowski, will again be seen alongside Brunson, Ice T, Peter Scanavino, Kelli Giddish, Kevin Kane, Aimé Donna Kelly, and Corey Cott in the fifth episode. “Law & Order: SVU” kicks off its 28th season on Thursday, October 8 at 9 p.m., followed by the “Law & Order” Season 26 premiere at 10 p.m.
