I dunno.  Christopher Meloni's okay, but Stabler was so damaged by years of bad writing on SVU.  Plus, I'm not sure I dig the premise all that much.  He's head of an organized crime task force?  Again, I dunno.  I see Stabler working as a private investigator, totally disillusioned by his years in law enforcement.

@Khan, with the right parner [and no CERTAINLY NOT Mariska], this could be really good.  I really like Elliot and his stance on child abuse.  I also thought it was incredibly sexy when Elliot rolled up his sleeves and tucked his tie into his shirt because that meant someone was getting an ass whipping!  

 

Benson needs to stay away...FAR FAR AWAY.  I once loved Benson to the point of not wanting to watch The Closer because it felt like I was cheating.  Then Benson ate the show whole with bad decisions and help from Mariska.  Hate her!

Stabler as a private investigator would be so different and old school, and I would probably even make an effort to regularly watch it.

As far as this is actually concerned, I'm getting "Untouchables but with season-long arcs" vibes. I'll probably never watch this, but I love Christopher Meloni and hope it's a success, which it most likely will be.

    • Yeah his acting was flat today
    • BLQ wanting Maxie to chose who she wants as a friend made BLQ selfish and it was bad timing because I loved her with Tracy Love that Rocco and Danny have more to do Shirtless Gio and Vaughn was fun Tracy and Lois should be excellent on monday
    • Oops, sorry about that. I'm awful with remembering names, LOL. Thanks for sharing the picture!
    • Beginning to end, just a GREAT episode. -- Starting with the shallow but also vital, the GH gods finally answered and gave us a Shirtless Gio. I've made my infatuation with Gio very clear, and the reveal did not disappoint. Boy is beautiful. I love his face, too. -- On any other show Vaughan would be THE snack, but today goes to Gio. -- Nothing in the episode seemed to be filler, and all of it seemed important. Brook Lynn and Tracy...Drew and Willow...Carly and Nina...Rocco and Danny...Dante and Lulu -- especially Dante and Lulu. -- Everything played like an A story at a high point in the plot. Excellent pacing and dialogue.
    • Maurice Johnson wasn't bad, but he lacked the emotional impact acting the story asked for.
    • So, I finally watched and I will have to agree with everyone that TMG and Ambyr are stars.  This episode reminded me why I thought Maurice Johnson was a poor actor in the beginning. He does well with the light, fun and loving dad/husband stuff but today he brought his scene partners down through his failure to tune into the emotion the scenes needed. I also didn't enjoy Claybon's scenes. He's improved for sure, but yikes it's rough having him play these intense scenes like he's narrating a science documentary.  Another thing I will say and I'm not sure whether this is good or bad (yet), is that I didn't know who to emotionally connect with. Many times I didn't feel anything at all or a connection with the character's emotions. I feel like the Duprees are the "good guys" that have villainous ways and the villains actually have a lot of layers to them. I didn't even feel sad for Nicole, but today didn't seem to be about Nicole. I actually didn't know what to feel about anyone. I think the only time I felt strongly was when Ted pretty much dismissed his own daughter (Eva) to go after his wife. Granted he's not completely sure that Eva is his daughter, but the way he pushed her away again in that moment was rough.

    • I have some questions: what happened to Countess Wilhelmina and Mad World? Last I remember they switched owners (CW went to Titan and MW went to DiMera or it was the other way around)
    • Lynn Deerfield with Hulswit as Ed (Don't count off for spelling, please)
