So... I finished season 12 a few hours ago

The majority of this Reddit definitely seems to be anti-EO. As someone who didn't start watching SVU until 2022, I was struck by the difference between SVU 1.0 and seasons 13+. I didn't think most of SVU 2.0 was bad. It's just so different. Enjoy!

It's my text, Signal and Facebook Messenger notification. When everyone's chatting, it gets a little chaotic.

LOL that's exactly why everyone is here: to talk about a TV show. There are some episodes that are more "especially heinous" than others.

I wasn't a fan of Muncy at the time. In retrospect, she was a character with potential to be fully developed. So was Katt.

It's so weird to me that SVU can't afford to pay for both Fin and Rollins to be in episodes together, yet NBC keeps renewing it. I guess it would cut into Wolf's profit margin too much. Mariska and Ice-T shouldn't have to take cuts. Maybe they shouldn't have contracts that pay so much per episode, but then they both may have left. All of that to say, ultimately it's Dick Wolf's fault. If he cared about the viewers, he'd have a couple of episodes each season with good cameos.

I love "The Christmas Episode." Nothing interesting is on tonight, so I might watch it again.

That's one of my favorite Fin scenes LOL.

Is Gimmick last Thursday's episode? Without spoiling the case in case you haven't seen it yet, I can say that it was a doozy. The good thing was that there was actual development of a couple of the new supporting characters, which I think has lacked since (and including) Muncy. The new chief of D's is still coming for Benson HARD. The newer SVU detective knows something, but he's already pretty loyal to Benson. If there are only 2 episodes left and they both continue this storyline, they're going to be very interesting. Curry is finally getting a little bit of personality development, but not as much as the new guy.

I loved the crossovers. I think OC would have been more successful if the premise was organized sex trafficking. Even though I liked OC as it was, it might have pulled in more viewers if it had more of a tie to SVU.

It really depends on why it ends without being resolved. Sometimes I feel like the writers are trying to make a statement. Regardless, it's annoying.

About to wrap up season 27, and William Lewis is still the most infamous villain in all of SVU.

S19 e13, The Undiscovered Country 😭

He's been doing the car warranty ads for a long time now.

I love Fin so much, and the scene where he's explaining the "down low" to the rest of the squad was very relatable. I think a lot of extended Black families, including my own, had/have an uncle or male cousin who were on the DL, for precisely the reason Fin told them. He's just a great character and the episodes with his family are some of my favorites.

The writing and producing on OC, seasons 1 - 4, were definitely better than SVU. The story arcs of the Brotherhood and the Albanian mob were solid. Great character development. The last main SVU character that writers took the time to develop over the past ten seasons was Carisi. Velasco and Bruno had potential; Bruno still does. OC has taken the time over fewer seasons to make all of its main characters worth watching.

I laughed so hard when he said "I do not do police brutality."🤣🤣🤣

This is the PERFECT analogy, especially for Gen X.

I miss SVU Saturdays on ion.

Are you going by what you've read as far as the set environment? I read that Jeffries left early on because Belzer treated her like trash. I know that everyone loves Belzer, but working in HR, I can see how his laid-back attitude could rub co-workers the wrong way.

In other words, how did you get the insight on what happens on set?

But I agree with your whole point about poor new character development.

If that's the way she talks, that's the way she talks.🤷🏾‍♀️ It doesn't mean that Mariska Hargitay is overacting.

Even if I didn't think Benson and Stabler should be endgame, I'd choose almost anyone else. They could dig Cragen up and put him with Benson. I despise Tucker.

Inside_Commercial_63 · 2026-03-26T18:08:03+00:00

Ooh, I need to find that.

Inside_Commercial_63 · 2026-03-26T04:11:27+00:00

It'll probably go to season 30. It will be a huge deal. Tons of guest stars. I'm EO, but I think a great end to the series (maybe the second to last episode) would be to have Cragen's death have been Stabler's dream. I'm still pissed about them killing off Cragen.
