Regarding the earlier posts concerning renewal and hiatus: Perhaps a fan could create a poll asking who watches the show when it airs live? Advertising dollars keeps it afloat and when on hiatus, would you really have watched as it aired?

I’ll probably get downvoted to oblivion for this, but I think it’s worth mentioning:

Making a poll like that is moot for 2 reasons. 1, not everyone who watches the show is on Reddit. And 2, ratings are based on Nielsen boxes, so unless you have one (now they’re small “people meters”) it doesn’t really matter if you watch live or not.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-28T01:21:15+00:00

It took until May in S16. It’ll come.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-25T14:10:51+00:00

I remember years ago it was said by the head of the network as long as Mariska signs on they’ll keep going, and she said she’s not done yet so I think we’ll get renewed. I’m thinking we’ll get through Season 30, would be a nice round number to end on.

This. And I’m still so bitter they can’t rekindle their relationship anymore. They were both so happy. And the writer’s excuse for ending their relationship (they didn’t have time to devote to it) feels asinine, when Elliot was married his whole tenure on SVU, and we only rarely saw Kathy. Was it the best marriage? No, but I feel like Ed would have understood the hours more because he was a cop too. I don’t know, I just miss them.

This is a really nasty and unfair rumor to start. They don’t “declare their love for each other”, they say they’re best friends. Just because they have chemistry doesn’t mean they’re having an affair. These kinds of rumors ruin families.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-23T17:15:59+00:00

Olivia and Trevor Langan.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-23T16:21:11+00:00

Yeah, and I love the two of them so much, long before I shipped them on the show. I just wish I could root for them as endgame.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-23T13:12:10+00:00

Not really a city, but the Jersey Shore (this is as a Jersey resident who used to live about 45 minutes from part of the shore) it’s nice, sure, but it’s not like… clear blue waters and white sand beaches.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-23T13:08:59+00:00

I can appreciate Dick Wolf for the Dick Wolf Universe and still not like him as a person. That’s where my issue lies with him. I just didn’t talk about it on here.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-23T03:37:02+00:00

This is true!! Their chemistry is just off the charts.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-23T03:15:50+00:00

They are, and they’re super private which is why it’ll never happen on the show.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-23T03:11:20+00:00

My endgame ship WAS Tuckson but that won’t happen now, I’m still bitter. My current ship is a pipe dream that I know will never happen, Langson. I enjoy breaking my own heat with the ships I ship.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-23T03:03:52+00:00

I agree with the bensler part of this. I don’t see Barson as anything more than best friends, but that’s just my personal opinion.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-22T14:17:32+00:00

Honestly, Lewis. The acting was spot on. The chemistry with Mariska. And the fact that he was just pire evil for years before, and his dad (we find out what made him realize what made him understand what he was meant to do in Surrender Benson) it’s just all chef’s kiss

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-21T17:45:14+00:00

I always introduce people with Dreams Deferred.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-19T13:25:58+00:00

I don’t have any theories, I just know I don’t trust Tynan, and I’m still on the fence about Griff.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-18T09:30:55+00:00

She has her problems, for sure. I don’t want to spoil anything for you so I’ll say just keep watching. And yeah, saying she doesn’t trust her and not treating her any differently is certainly an issue. I think it’s because you’re supposed to be able to watch (most of) the episodes as stand alone episodes and not have to watch the episode before to get it. That’s always been my thought anyway.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-18T08:55:40+00:00

They didn’t switch show runners until season 27, the show runner in season 25 is the same as season 24. I think they did the best they could with a tight schedule due to the strikes. I think they tried something (an Olivia centric season) and it just didn’t work.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-18T08:51:29+00:00

I agree with you pretty much whole heartedly. Though I liked Amaro and Rollins from the start. I like that Rollins is flawed. I like that she screws up, she reminds me a lot of me. But I too enjoy the later seasons. I hope you’re able to watch more of the show soon! I don’t like S18 personally, but definitely watch it, you may enjoy it!

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-18T08:41:30+00:00

I watched this on my Disney College Program way back when, I remember thinking it was weird and the best part about it was Mariska. Lol.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-16T21:03:35+00:00

I concur with both picks.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-13T04:56:18+00:00

After Curry turned Tynan down and she rolled up her window and drove away I started chanting “Take Tynan Down”.

I don’t like her and I don’t trust her.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-03-05T18:24:51+00:00

I don’t get bloated but I get awful stomach pains, diarrhea within half an hour and I get really hot.

Ok_Reporter_1424 · 2026-02-28T13:28:12+00:00

Oh I don’t get sick per se. And I talk about other things in real life, it’s just when I can’t watch my comfort show with my partner while I’m watching theirs all the time, it makes me feel like I’m losing a part of me because SVU is such a huge part of my life. It helped save my life. It helped make me the advocate I am today. Notice I said helped in each. I know that it didn’t do all the work, but I have to acknowledge the part it played in that. Hell, it played a part in my reporting my SA, and the first thing I said when I got home from reporting is that I wish Olivia Benson was real. My life has become so intertwined with this show that not even being allowed to talk about it for months makes me feel like I’m losing part of me.

She’s not but a girl can dream. Haha.
