I’ve been watching L&O religiously for decades now, but I just can’t take it any more…these two episodes at the start of the new season are just amazingly bad, like the absolute worst.
Let’s take cases to trial without evidence, let’s show that the writers clearly don’t understand AI, let’s make characters so cardboard cutout as to be laughable.

Oh Lenny and Claire, those were the days.

It went to the premium/paid plans sometime earlier this year, only a handful of episodes were available for free while you had to subscribe in order to watch the series in full. I’m watching it from the beginning on Peacock free now. All episodes from all 10 seasons are there in the lineup.

In case anyone wants to tune in when it’s not airing on Charge TV network, or the station does one of their odd streaks of skipping over several episodes instead of airing in order. Personally I plan on doing both because I like the community aspect of the primetime syndication water cooler here too. 😎

Jesse L. Martin's show The Irrational was cancelled so how would you feel about him returning?

I would love to see it just to bring the old school back would give the series a boost. Even he was part time or as a private investigator to help out

This was only his third acting credit.

I love this episode, in fact it may be my all time favorite of the series. So many things to unpack. So what are your thoughts, is Mack Claire’s dad, stepdad, or her mom’s boyfriend? What did you like or dislike about the episode?

I think they should have had her working with Green in season 17 instead of Cassidy .

Also do you think her and Green were dating? They were always looking at each other like they been banging

This was the headline. I saw it yesterday afternoon. So shitty. I hate being spoiled.

Would have made for a better story, and if he had to go, what a way to go out by solving a consequential crime (similar to Lennie Briscoe) and that  would at least leave the door open for him to return.

Additionally, it would solve part of REAL problem with Law and Order: the legal side, with whining, begrudgingly-prosecuting, low-energy, pervasively-constipated counselors. 😫 

I will miss Reid's character but I respect the New York shoot was tough on his young family I already miss Mechad.

I really hate that Theo is such a dirty cop. Out of all the thousands of cops in New York he's the only one on L&O that has literally lied on the stand and compromised his personal integrity more than once. Of course, he's also one of the only Black cops. I can't recall a cop this dirty in quite some time on this show. You've had others who have contemplated some of the things that Theo is done but they always do the right thing by the end of the episode. Not with him.

I don’t understand how the jury would convict him. So many holes in the case

The Sunday marathon, per listings, will start at 5:00 p.m. ET and end at 2:00 a.m. ET, Monday morning.

Enjoy!

Is it just me or does anyone else get annoyed when on a rewatch you get to a crossover episode and have no idea where to find the second half? I finished episode Sideshow and have no idea where to stream Homicide now

In my opinion, he had some thoughtful moments and I liked his no nonsense approach. I agree with others thoughts about wondering why NBC couldn’t promote other characters (Violet Yee) or at least add a bit more diversity.
