This year we lost the flagship show in the Law & Order fleet of... flag... ships. But just because Law & Order got cancelled doesn't mean the network didn't want there to be more Law & Orders to replace it. Over 25 new Law & Order spin off shows appeared this year, not all of them were great, but here are some of the best.
1. Law & Order: The Shire

4. Law & Order: Pet Detectives
