'Law & Order: Criminal Intent' Season 10 Premiere Grabs Big Ratings

Filed under: TV News

'Law & Order: Criminal Intent' returned -- with original stars Vincent D'Onofrio and Kathryn Erbe -- to a whopping 5.1 million viewers, up 43 percent from last season.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, 'Criminal Intent' rose by double digits in key demographics. The show was watched by 1.88 million adults 18-49, up 35 percent. In the 25-24 demo the show was watched by 2.04 million, up 21 percent and in the 18-34 demo 632,000 tuned in, up 31 percent from last year.

With ratings this big for a 10-year-old show, can viewers expect an 11th-season reprieve? Despite USA's announcement that this 10-episode season would be the last, Dick Wolf has gone on record indicating hope for a new season of 'Criminal Intent.'

Wolf said he hoped "enough fans will come out so the powers that be reconsider their decision."
