5USA Next Week: The NCIS Marathon You Won’t Want to Miss
If you’re looking for a week‑long binge‑of gritty crime drama, 5USA has you covered. From Monday to Sunday, the channel delivers a steady stream of NCIS, Law & Order, and other procedural gems — plus a few shopping and entertainment news breaks for those who need a lighter dose.
Monday (2026-06-01)
The day starts with NCIS on the 6:00–7:00 London slot (08:00–09:00 UTC) — episode S14 Ep6: “After a kidnapped petty officer escapes her captor…” The episode is a reliable entry into the series’ trademark mix of naval intrigue and human drama.
Next up is Law & Order: SVU from 22:00–23:00 London (00:00–01:00 UTC). The 1‑hour episode (S9 Ep17) dives into the “Conman” case and features a guest appearance by Robin Williams. It holds up well for viewers who enjoy a fast‑paced, forensic‑driven narrative.
Late‑night viewers can swap between Blue Bloods (23:50–01:00 London) and Criminal Minds Evolution (01:45–02:40 London) for a mix of family‑police drama and psychological thriller.
