Law & Order: SVU - Discussion Thread

He still is!! At age 87, he doesn't look much different now than he did then.

Just watched the bloated-as-hell two-hour season finale.  PLEASE tell me "ADA Strike Back," as he is known elsewhere, is not coming back.  I mean, when they have to turn the whole show into an action flick JUST to keep him in his dramatic wheelhouse, it's clear he's a bad fit.

They killed the wrong sibling---it's that simple......

[Khan]

And they did it, obviously, to make us care about him, since it was clear to us that we didn't.

 

I just wish this show would focus on the case of the week and skip the "personal life" stories.  They just don't work in the L&O-verse.

Makes me think of GH's Maxie and Georgie!

UGGGGH. I didn’t think any episode could annoy me more than Barba's exit, but this one did. Can we have ONE season finale that doesn't involve a hostage situation and/or shooting? The only good thing was the all too brief appearance of Carolyn McCormick as Dr. Olivet.

 

Why isn't Ice-T/Fin the star of the show? I know I am not the only one sick of "The Saint Olivia Hour". I want to know what Fin has on Chief Dodds that they've been hinting at all season. I can only hope that Season 20 is better than what we've gotten the past few years, but I'm not holding my breath. Mariska just has way too much power and she's taking the show down with her. 😠😠😠😠😠

Watched an eppy Saturday.  I believe it was from S15, and Olivia once again ruins someone's life.  I watched because Billy Porter was in the eppy.  Not familiar with him but I wanted to know what all the fuss was about, especially since he came to the Oscars in a dress

  Olivia ruins this guy's life because, of course, these little white kids have to be telling the truth and everyone is a rapist until Olivia Benson says otherwise.  At the end, right on schedule, the camera pans to a very sad Olivia because she did everything right but the outcome was still wrong.  [!@#$%^&*] HATE HER! 

 

Oh, and in case you're wondering...yeah, I'm still trying to figure out what the Billy Porter fuss is about

No surprise here:

But they will be searching for a new ADA:

Thank. God.

 

Winchester's easy on the eyes, though.  I'm sure he'll land on his pecs -- I mean, feet -- very shortly.

Yet another ADA for Olivia to neuter, ahem, break in. Yay.

[slick jones]

Winchester was a block of wood. He is up there with Kim Greylek in the ADA Hall of Shame.....

[amybrickwallace]

 

Ouch. No one could be as bad as Kim Greylek. Awful, awful character.

[amybrickwallace]

Yay.
