Babs Duffy what’s genuinely so annoying the actor behind it did amazing with making us dislike her character. She was essentially a lesbian extremist. She kept on calling out injustices in the lesbian community that just didn’t exist.😭😭

Like no, the guy isn’t discriminating against you because he made a typo on your flyers🙄

Then watches her friend punch Stabler in the head and when she’s getting arrested, it’s all of a sudden police brutality😭😭😭😭😭

You have to live with one SVU character for a year. Who are you choosing?

I'd pick Barba. He's intelligent, quick-witted, and would probably have the best arguments over absolutely everything. Living with him would be entertaining, as long as you could survive his sarcasm and constant need to prove he's right.

Alternative Roommate: Big Booty Stabler. He's protective, loyal, and definitely someone you'd want on your side. The only downside? You'd probably get interrogated every time you came home late or forgot to text him back.

No moving out, no switching roommates for a whole year. Who are you picking, and what makes them your ideal roommate?

Bonus Question: You're going on a week-long vacation with three SVU characters. Who are you bringing, and who's the ONE person you absolutely refuse to travel with?

How can a judge turn the jury's verdict? It seemed like judge was either a misogynist or he must have been bought off. It makes me wonder how the judge/jury influence a verdict based on their own personal views.

I always thought Peter seems a nice guy. Did I miss the gossip about him?

This may have been posted before, if so I'm sorry, but the Babs Duffy post got me to thinking. Of all the "name" guest stars, which was the actor/actress (I screwed that part up) that was the hardest to "like".

Examples : I like Henry Winkler, but not his character. Robin Williams, Kal Penn, Martin Short and so on. Even guys like Fred Savage and Luke Perry. I'd say mine is Martin Short.

I just finished all 27 seasons + the new episodes in seasons 28.

What do I do? I go back to season 1, episode 1.

I have done this before. I am a geriatric millenial, so I was around these things IRL at the time.

But it looks ancient now? The computer screens, the way they test for DNA, the outfits (some of the suits), some of the haircuts, the massive paper archives…

Not to mentioned the unhinged dialogue, this would have been reported to HR if it happened today. He-she-wars? Lol.

I guess the world has moved forward in certain ways in the past 28 years.

Wow. Tracy Pollan’s appearances on SVU are excellent. She portray’s the victim-turned-‘vigilante’ brilliantly. I can respect the need to act the way she did. It’s satisfying.

Me personally would like to see Hunter Mazelon (S12E23) make a return. He kind of reminds me of Henry Mesoner who got more of a story line later on.

Went to work and my colleague said they were setting up L&O SVU trailers to shoot near one of the streets by my office! I’ve seen other shoots, of course around NYC area, but not for one of my favorite shows! I really hoped to see Ice T or Mariska, but to no such avail. I did see some DPs and caught a glimpses of their badges with SVU printed on them. It was exciting to go check out the scene during my breaks! I love New York.

His third ever acting credit too! Good luck, JBD!

Rollins has finally put a picture on her desk but sadly it’s a very old one!

This is the same picture she had as phone screen when Bucci was smashing her phone 8 years ago.

A recent picture with Nicky would be better but in this soulless Michele Fazekas seasons the bar is low.

So even a very old pic is better than nothing.

I know I’ve got a lot to watch still. But, so far, S3 has been the best.

And the first episode of S4, reminded me a lot of Aileen Wuornos minus the kid. I had to look up the air date of this episode and the death of Alieen Wuornos. This episode aired late September of 2002 and Wuornos was put to death early October of 2002. I was hoping to get a reference, if that was even possible.

I can't think of anything else that the fans been waiting on for years other than for eo to happen.. so it might be a possibility this time for sure.

I’m rewatching and I’m currently on season 8 episode 22 Screwed (season finale) and oh my god the writers today could never write an episode like this and it’s such a shame.

The ideas are there and I’ve seen glimpses of good writing but the way the old seasons were able to tell 7 stories in one episode and tie up lose ends from old seasons is truly something that needs to be brought back to make this show good again.

The writing has been so bad it’s honestly boring.

To preface this I haven’t watch the new season episode yet.

The trial felt completely rushed? Like they just chopped it up and rushed to the verdict directly? What happened? I am so confused!!!

Liv: How bad was it?
Barba: The Titanic meets the Hindenberg meets my first year of Little League.

Barba, I love you the most. And now I’m in the episodes with the sad baby story, and Raul Esparza is KILLING me. Oof.

TO BE CLEAR I LOVE ICE-T IN THIS SHOW. HE'S REALLY FUNNY I JUST THINK IT'S SILLY HE ALWAYS DOES THIS

Been watching on and off for quite some time, and I swear every other scene with Ice-T is him going off at ANY suspect they find, with barely any rage directed towards the actual guilty party. He's using up his rage meter on everybody except the actual perp. 😂

"What were you doing yesterday morning?"

"I was eating sausage at home"

"WAS THAT BEFORE OR AFTER YOU STRUNG UP THAT CHILD BY HER ORGANS?!"

Is this an actual tactic police use? Just blatantly accuse every suspect of doing the crime? Cause half of these people would likely wall themselves off and lawyer up, right?

Now I know this episode has been talked about before but I want to give my fill into this episode I really don't like the fact stabler throughout the whole episode was questioning the man who got raped motives and thinking that he is less of a man because he got raped there's such a outdated type of thinking that it just really made me dislike him in this episode.

And they wonder why male victims of rape don't want to come out because of stuff like this it's really upsetting and I'm glad that we have gotten better as a society I hope when it comes to male victims of rape.

I didn’t watch last season as it aired (27) so I started watching it via Hulu this past week… Why they just write him out of the show? Anyone know?

UPDATE: maybe I should have been more clearer in my question. I’m aware Cragen retired from the show in the 10’s. But, opening season 27 with a memorial to him, was kind of jarring and weird. Like, “what did I miss?”
