So I guess that Svu rand out of episodes. Also, what the heck was up with 'Olivia's Secret" It was really lame.

Yeah I know. I was expecting something much bigger than what it was. Whoopee.

I know that the previews always lie, but geesh.

Also, I think that the L&O shows have stolen just about every story from LOCI this season.

What next? A story about a sports team accused of rape? What about a senseless murder of three college students? Maybe Green will have to go to the mental hospital?

So I didn't miss anything by not watching SVU? I read that it had something to do with a fertility clinic and Olivia feeling she's missing on being able to have kids.
:Shudder: It sounded too much like a soap rather then SVU show...

So what did L&O steal from LOCI now?
I actualy missed the last L&O too. Though I picked up on the poisoned toothpaste from comercials so I didn't mind missing it...

Loci had an ep with poisoned mouthwach this season. And a fertility clinic ep, also.

Ok Last nights SVU

Poor Munch, mentions he was dumped by fin and now teamed up with a computer.

Olivia doesn't have extended Family, I thought for sure Elliot would say yes you do , you have Me,

Of course who would let a cop adopt, a single cop, geez just have a kid Olivia.

I don't know why I thought she would donate her eggs to that woman.

And Why is it familiar what they were doing to that little girl, was that on another show, about keeping her small, or was that in real life? I have a poor memory. But I remember something about keep an invalid girl from growing so she would be easy to handle for the family.

Another episode I feel sorry for the murderer, This man stole these embryos for publicity then sends them UPS back? He should have used FEDEX, geez, Then he couldn't be charged with murder, One woman could never bear her own children and another man lost his wife forever couldn't have her children, but then, would he find a woman who would want to bear her children. Just a sad episode.

On another Note, Fred Thompson, is out of the Race and Now out of Law and Order.

Also they should use the Same Chief of D's for continuty

I really need to watch the episode----feel asleep last night before it finished recording on the DVR

There was a real life story about parents giving their disabled daughter hormones to keep her small and easier to handle. Not sure how I feel about it. But on SVU, the harvesting the girls eggs was over the top IMO.
And the Chief of D's--it would be nice if they used the same one. If he thought Bobby was a whack job, what would he think of Elliot? And one more thing, is being a jerk a requirement of moving up the ranks in the NYPD? Well, maybe that's a little harsh for the SVU Chief of D's--I guess he was more condescending than a real jerk.

Cool!

It would have to be a two parter. You would need two full hours for that, definately.


I have always wondered that because that Chief of Ds has been on a couple of episodes. When I saw him in Cragen's office I sorta freaked and thought he was firing Cragen. I like the CI Chief of Ds better because he seems what I would expect high brass to be like.


I was very mad about "Olivia's Secret". I even yelled at the TV. "Worst secret ever Dick Wolf!" That was the worst lying done by a preview I've ever seen.

OH and I thought, Kathy wanted to name the Baby Elliot, Is Eli just a nickname for elliot, or did they change the name.

I was thinking about that because Elliot and Eli mean two different things in Hebrew, which is where the names orginate. I like Eli better. It seems to fit a kid better. Maybe that's just because I hear Elliot and think of brawny, blue eyed, hunka-hunka burning love.

Last night's L&O was over the top, ya'll are right.

Remember I noticed a "Sesame Street" alumnus on a LOCI epi recently? Well, guess who made an appearance as the janitor on last night's mothership? Same actor! The one who plays Luis.

Guess I need to watch "Sesame Street" now, and see if he's still on that show? Course, that show's been running for almost 39 years, and he's been on it since Day 1, so maybe he's tired of having muppets for co-stars?

I keep wondering why they are hiring Sesame Street people. They'll have to start a Sesame Street precinct!

Next thing will be hiring Elmo or Big Bird (LOL)

Stephen Colbert was in one episode of Sesame Street.

I noticed him, too. But then I kept looking at him to make sure. It seemed to me he looked older last night than in Amends. Maybe it was the mustache (he had a mustache, right? There goes the memory!)

Yes, he had a mustache. You're memory is just fine!

Now, I'm in a quandary tonight -- both L&O (mothership) and CSI:NY are NEW!!!!! What to do? What to do? Usually pick one and watch the other on re-runs.....hmmmm....maybe just flip back and forth?

Oh, and nothing is wrong with the NoRoMo photo with the mechs on it, I was just wondering if we had a "profile" pic of our wonderful ship like the Swiss do?

Yes, he was on the Goren/Eames episode Amends. He played the Grandpa of the boy that stole the gun. He was sitting on a front porch when Goren talked to him.

They're showing the ci eps all kinds of out of order on NBC. Senseless will be on next week. Must be a sweeps thing. Maybe they're banking on the season continuing in a couple of weeks. I really hope taht they show the extended untethered.

stupid DVR went on the fritz and didn't record SVU--so what happened? what was the big, or not so big, secret? somebody give details!

olivia tried to adopt a kid, but she was rejected b/c she's single and a cop. That's one secret that they should have kept.

Amen! That wasn't even really a secret. That was more like something you just kept to yourself but not something that you were actively trying to hide. I was half expecting that she had an embryo at the clinic or something more, I don't know, secret-ish.

that's what I'm saying. I know that we complain about it being a soap opera at times, but don't give a soap operais hook without followthrough. That looks stipid.

When they mentioned the Chief of D's was at the crime scene on the original last night, I was so hoping to see him, lol. Just to see if they would use one of the others from CI or SVU. I liked it last night. As for CSI NY, if they would get rid of Heratio, I would watch, something about him, ewwww. I loved when Jim Carrey did an impression of him with his sunglasses on Dave Letterman once, so funny.

If they had just not put the little "Olivia has a secret" bit in the teasers, I think I would have been more suprised about her trying to adopt. It's like when you expect something really great for Christmas and you get something cool just not what you expected, so you don't appreciate what you got.

I think Liv would make a pretty good mom, but I understand why they wouldn't want to place a child in a home that the sole provider could be shot and killed.

That was it??? That's kinda of lame. . . . maybe it was a good thing the DVR went on the fritz--saved the TV from getting yelled at. . .

Uh, Captain JRyan, ma'am? Horatio is the detective on CSI:Miami, not CSI:NY. Surely you don't mean you want CSI:NY to get rid of Gary Sinise, do you? He's the whole reason I watch that show!

Law & Order (mothership) sure didn't waste any time on this local -to- me story that occurred in the next town over on Long Island(Miller Place)

A black father shot & killed a white teenage boy who came to his house with several friends to confront the man's son. Basically the same story as last night, without the silly "soccer mom vigilante" added plotline. That must be a different "ripped" headline from a different part of the country.

I "sort of know" the father of the deceased boy, he owns an auto shop. A regular blue collar guy. Supposedly a friend of the white kids (a white girl) said the black teenage boy tried to rape her. It was a lie, of course. I hope this girl gets punished for her part in this tragegy.

oops, I don't watch CSI: Ny either, but don't know why on that one, lol.

OOps forgot to mention, Kathryn Erbe's ex hubby on Law and Order last night. Hadn't seen him around in awhile. He was pretty good.

Lol.
That's a reason I haven’t thought of, I watch the show occasionally but the plots tend to be simple/childish. I'm guessing you've seen Imposter ?
Have you read any of the interviews by VDO where he describes some of Goren's characteristics as kitsch? I almost immediately thought of Horatio on CSI:Miami. I don't think the 'Goren lean' or any other 'Goren quirks' could possibly become as awful as Horatio's sunglass routine :shudder:
~
Uhm, on topic.... I actualy havn't been watching... So Olivia's back story now includes a half brother and a failed adoption.... I wonder what's next.....
I don't really track the mothership of SVU but it's starting to feel like they're starting to put character stories before the 'crime stories'. In moderation it's okay but if they go all the way placing character stories first then L&O will become just one more crime show no diffrent from the rest. I hope CI doesn't continue that way... Oh, I'm OT again.

I'm so sad! I couldn't stay awake for L&O last night, but thought I was taping it. Think again! No Green, no Lupo. I hope they run it again soon.

yes I forsee me having a lupo crush

something about those scruffy guys.

I've asked before, and I'll ask again. Why isn't th chief of Ds the same on each show?

Anyone recognize the actor who plays the other Chief Of Detectives? Was he ever in a CI episode (like the CI guy also being in "Watch?") I haven't seen him yet, so I'm curious.

Anyone else think it was so unrealistic on the mothership last night when they tried the poor, black father & the rich, white mother together? So lame & so ridiculous. It would never happen in the real world, not for a minute.

The chief of ds on SVU (and I think that the same guy is on the mothership, too as chief of Ds) was in a couple of eps of the mothership back in the day.

For you Golden Girls fans: the svu/mothership? chief of Ds is the same guy who played Gil Kessler, the Transexual politician who ran for city council and lied about having an affair with Blanche.

Do you mean John Schuck? I don't remember him on Golden Girls (I'll have to watch some reruns), but I remember him from the McMillan and Wife show. LONG time ago. Ahhh....Rock Hudson

Ha! I know who you mean now. He's been around a looong time.

Why the lack of continuity? I'm sure Mr. Schuck wasn't too busy to handle playing the Chief on CI as well. I'd much prefer him over the guy they have. Christ, that man annoys the crap out of me.

Speaking of continuity, I read on another site that in "Untethered." you can spot Logan's unmanned desk, because it has on it a small Irish flag. Anyone notice this?

I hadn't noticed, but now I will just have to watch it again!

Which character was KE's ex playing? It was a good episode - really loving the mothership this season!

Has anyone noticed that G/E are the only ones to drive a SUV? A nice SUV, too! Why do they get the nice car and everyone else cruises in the crown vics?

I'm curious too. He wasn't the attorney for the soccer mom, or either of the white fathers. Who was he, I'm running out of prospects.

have you noticed that the SUV went from being mercury to a gmc (I believe. it definitely changed model this season)

I thought the SVU ep was good, but soooo sad. Not as much sad about Olivia, but the whole story, esp after they found the tank, and then the airport scene near the end? I cried...



What a great line. Munch was very good this ep. He always has great lines, it seems.


Hi, DoM, you're not the only one who thinks that when she hears "Elliott".

A single cop's home would prolly be a poor risk home to put a child into. Too much of a chance that the child's sole provider will be killed in the line of duty.



As a side note, when Stabler and Benson pull up to the APS (?) truck, check out their crown vic. It still (again?) has a dent in the back driver's side door. From Els' head, if they were shooting for continuity? But wouldn't you think it'd be fixed by now? Or did something else happen to the car that I missed? I didn't watch Unorthodox.


spook

He was the lawyer for the Black Father. The one who shot the boy.

That was sad, but the 'secret' ruined the ep for me. I need to watch it again.

I missed that part.


*thud*
I don't know why she wouldn't have though to this.



Good eye. I'll have to watch it to see if I can spot it. Maybe there is some type of paperwork that they have to do to get it fixed or something and so the reparis are caught up in beauracracy.

Great eye to catch that!

Shoot, I erased my DVR. I thought he looked familiar....I haven't seen him recently, he looks different than when he was in "That Championship Season."

Much is a very intriging caracter!!Yea,I think too,that Stabler is HOTT!!

Hi, *jc,

I thought more of it as perhaps a boo boo rather than a deliberate attempt at continuity, but who knows? I have no idea how many of the same vehicle that they have, for interior/exterior shots, etc... On atxf (X-Files newsgroup), we always said, "Continuity? We don't need no stinkin' continuity".


spook

I was trying to interject continuity where there was none.

I'm watching the DVD box set for Season 4 of SVU.

INTEENNSSEEE

If you think Season four of SVU is good, wait until season six comes out April 1st....season six is the best season they did...I personally can't wait ...
