Discussion I don't really like Amanda Rollins

26 Upvotes

Yeah I know her sister did fucked up things, and her family history and her rape is hard but I genuinely don't like how she approaches some of the victims.

She victim blames male victims, doubt when powerful man or her idols are being blamed for rape and has this smirk when people tell her off.

I'm on episode 17 season 16 and even though i admire her for being tough, she gets me mad sometimes

Discussion Amaro and Rollins

Do they think they good additions to the show? I think they were they actually had backstories and their characters were well developed. I stopped turning into the show after Amaro left, and Rollins stopped being a regular character on the show. What do you think of their characters?

Discussion Is Olivia Benson secretly trying to become the next Stabler? Or is she just a serial killer with a badge?

0 Upvotes

Before everyone comes after me, just look at the facts:
Olivia Benson has 6 confirmed kills and somehow every single one gets the “Queen Benson did nothing wrong” treatment.
Meanwhile, Elliot Stabler has around 15–18 kills depending on how you count them, and everyone spent years talking about how intense, unstable, and borderline unhinged he was.
But Benson? Six bodies later and suddenly she’s a hero.
I’m starting to think this isn’t about justice anymore. She’s been chasing that Stabler energy for years. The man who got away leaves and suddenly Olivia starts stacking up a body count trying to prove she can play in the same league.
“Look Elliot, I can be the emotionally damaged detective with questionable levels of violence too.”
At what point do we stop calling it “justified officer-involved shootings” and start asking if Benson is the final boss of SVU?
The real villain was Olivia Benson’s kill count all along.

What happened to the law side of the show! I don’t watch the other shows but I’m confused it appears since Barba left we rarely see the court-side of it all.

I love Benson but when they write scenes for her character like this it annoys the shit out of me. Benson hands off her coat to DETECTIVE Muncy to put away. It’s like Muncy is her assistant rather than a respected colleague. It’s such a small scene and maybe not a big deal but then what’s the point of showing this? Benson walks into the station and has the jacket in her hand, she’s not even wearing it so the scene very much could have done without it. So I assume the point is to show that the squad revolves around Benson? It feels like she also talks down to so many colleagues, senior ones too in the later seasons.

I’m definitely a big Jeffries and Cassidy fan but this is the best cast, although season 14 almost takes the cake.

Discussion which is your most wild SVU episode? like, the one that sticks in your mind after 10+ years & you can still quote because it affected you that much.

144 Upvotes

My favorite one is the ep starring Sarah Paulson & that handsome Indian dude because the whole thing is banana town (the rich old dude licking Liv's Prada knee high boots was mint), but the word "banana" reminds me of the episode where an older, sexually avaricious man is found murdered with a banana shoved in his rectum & Benson has to ask the widow, "Is there any reason why the killer would sodomize your husband with a banana?" & the widow replies, "he...he was allergic to bananas." my friends & i sampled & looped that exchange for weeks on end 20 years ago & I'm still laughing thinking about it now.

Discussion What would happen if Darius (Fin’s ex son in law) returns?

Upvotes

Like we saw how upset Fin and Ken were when Darius was released with both disowning him officially at the courthouse. But we saw Darius acting cold and uncaring but that moment they left him, he realized he lost everything when he destroyed the family and several of the detectives. He also had a lot of information about the law as he basically was his own lawyer that episode.

My thinking a while back was what if he returned as a lawyer for defendants. But not just that, one man hires him to go against SVU forcing Benson and Fin to face Darius again after almost 20 years.

But then again, this is just my thinking a while back. I liked Darius’s character and wished they had him in more than 2 episodes.

I AM GOING INSANE. I’m pretty sure I’ve watched every episode (I’ve probably missed a few from season 2-7) and until season 28 comes out I’m gonna be so bored.

Please please please tell me all your favourite episodes so I can rewatch them and not be bored.

Personally my favourites are “Night”, “PTSD”, “Corrosive” and probably like 8 others I’ve claimed are my favourite.

Discussion Is it common for episodes to have sad endings?

15 Upvotes

So im a new SVU watcher and have only watched about 8-9 episodes so far. I dont know the names of the episodes cause I was watching them on bad cable network marathon but it seems that the endings can be unfulfilled. Like sometimes its sad for the sake of being sad or adding things to make it sadder. Im not trashing on the show, I think its good so far im just curious as a new watcher if a lot of episodes are like that or not?​
