Law & Order: SVU
 

So, my wife and I are huge fans of the series and we try to watch it together on Wednesdays. This weeks episode guest stared John Stamos...and man was it a trip.

Anyone else fans of Det. Benson, Stabler, Munch and Tutuola?

I actually just replied to you about the show in the "what are you currently thinking" thread... or whatever it's called.

SVU is one of my favorite shows on TV. The stories are always completely off the wall, yet frighteningly real and I love the characters, especially Stabler and Benson.

The two episodes with Jeremy Irons have been my favorites so far this season. I really hope all the actors sign to do season 13 next year!

I do to Leader.

Is it just me or does Chris Meloni look like Elias Koteas?

He totally does. When I was considerably yonger I was convinced that was him.

Anywho, I'm a HUGE fan of SVU, been keeping up with it for 5 years or more. Tonight's episode was nuts. Never heard of reproductive abuse before.

Me neither. It almost rang like a PSA against it once the "expert" was called in.

What is it that makes SVU so awesome? The great main cast? The awesome side characters like chief medical examiner Dr. Melinda Warner or criminal psychologist Dr. George Huang. I love them about as much as Benson and Stabler.

Actually that was the reason I first stopped and started watching the show. Once I heard Chris talk I knew it wasn't Koteas but then I got sucked into the plot and like went out and bought all the seasons on DVD and flew through the series.

I enjoy the other Law and Orders alright but none of them are nearly as good as SVU at least in my opinion. The show has just somehow stuck this perfect balance of interesting Police drama with interesting characters.

Personally I am convinced when I grow up I am going to become Olivia *laughs*

We watch a LOT of the police shows - L&O, NCIS, CSI, Criminal Minds, Bones, Fringe.. NCIS is my absolute favorite, but mom loves L&O.

Sounds like my mom. She watches all but Fringe...as far as I know any way. I like NCIS as well. Great characters and good stories. If it or SVU is on when I flip through the channels I'll stop and watch either.

I used to love CSI:Vegas and the original Criminal Minds, until William Petersen and Mandy Patinkin left the shows :(

I really enjoy Fringe and LOVE Walter but my viewing of that is also spotty at best. Much like Jester I will generally watch these shows whenever I see them on and have nothing else to watch.

And oddly with cable you can almost always find an episode of L&O, Criminal Minds or CSI on at least one channel :tlol:

Yes folks, Fringe also rules. I was once a fan of the OG L&O but not so much since the two main characters have been replaced.
It's still good, but I don't really watch it anymore.

The original L&O is dead...:(

I know, & that's why I don't watch. He was a beast. A quality actor.

SVU is my favorite law and order and probably my favorite police show I love the characters storyline and questionable ethics. And not too mention stabler kickn some ass every now and again.

I'm not talking about Jerry Orbach, who I too miss as Lenny, but the show...is dead....it is no more....it has ceased to be.

Anyone who wants a good laugh and loves memes should check out the inappropriate Stabler Tumblr:

It pretty much points out every crazy thing Stabler does on the show with a smattering of other characters.

Stabler is my favorite character on the show, but sometimes even I am surprised by the things he does :twink:

Yeah I love them all, but Stabler is just bad A.

Love the series! I watch all the old episodes on USA all the time.

And you can tell they're older episodes by Olivia's hair....:D

That's usually how I gage how old the episode is....and also who the ADA is.

Yeah, SVU has a huge stable of former ADAs.
