I bet you it is. It sounds like he's playing Dick, anyway.

Who is Chris Elliott? Wait..........is he the guy w/ the creepy hand from Scary Movie? Forgettin' names but no faces.....Hahaha...

I don't know about Scary Movie. He is on Letterman fairly regularly. And he was Amy's freaky brother on Everybody Loves Raymond.

Here is a photo:

Thanks for the link.

LMAO. bahaha. OMG!!!
hahaahaa. you are too funny!
ahh. LOL. I can't stop laughing now.
Maybe he is

I vote for an Mother-In-Law and Daughter-In-Law cat fight! Right in the kitchen for all stabler eyes to see. LOL!

"You aren't cutting those veggies the right way. I like it slanted dangit! Why can't you get anything right?!"

"Elliot, get you crazy mother out of my kitchen!"

"That does it blondie! You are going down!!!!!"

LOL! Awe man I would crack the hell up! The show needs some more humor. Why not a chick fight.

haha ya, he was in the second and than fourth one, the guy with the mutated hand

this is the guy who suppodesly asks liv on a date?? boy, she sure does like them old bill pullman for one but i think id prefer him, but not..really

ARE YOU KIDDING ME????? This dude looks old enough to be her long lost dad! Pullman was at least her bloody age. This guy is collecting AARP! He probubly has to pop a bottle of Viagra just to get it up! Come on! Why can't Liv get someone hot like McDreamy! This is a scandle I tell ya! A scandle!

But the article does say he plays an Ex-military man. Isn't the guy that comes foreward still in the military or rather still on active duty? This guy looks too old to still be on active duty.

Seriously? He looked older then Cragen! He looks old enough to be Bill Pullman's dad! Lol. Wow, well, maybe they use LOTS of makeup. LOTS of makeup.

He can be higher up in the ranks now and still be in the military but not fighting, (at least I hope not)

Wow, Olivia really does have some daddy issues doesn't she? Soon I am gong to have to ship Olivia/ \Cragen! Brolin does have that distringushed older man thing going. Even thought Pullman ws only 11 years older, he did not look good. I guess Hugh Hefner wasn't available.

I must admit I am looking forward to meeting Mama Stabler, whatever the reason.

ROTFLMAO Hugh Hefner??? Bwahahahahahahahah!

I'm at a loss for words...wait...No I'm not! WTF is Wolf trying to do to me here? Where in the sam hell is Vincent Spano, and why are they going all soapy on me?

But I must admit, if I didn't think Mr. Streisand was one of the hottest men to ever walk the planet, I'd be so pissed. I mean really pissed! When Hotel was cancelled, I wanted to put my head in the oven.


ANDREA

p.s. BRING BACK VINCENT, you morons!

LOL, you guys seriously crack me up.

imo Brolin is attractive and eventhough he is old he's not going to be dating Olivia. From what I understand he hits on her and asks her out but it certainly won't go anywhere if those spoilers are accurate. I do want to say that wth is with tptb, why do they insist on not having Olivia love interests (I use that term loosely) be younger and more attractive (doesn't have to be a model type). Maybe they should hire female casting directors because it is becoming obvious that all of the decision makers are older guys. If they keep going in this direction I would prefer Benson to remain single.

Now the dude from Scary Movie definitely looks like the creepy stalker type. Scary Movie 2 is one of my favorite mindless comedies ('grab my strong hand')

So we get to see Stabler's mama. Since the spoilers indicate that it will be explosive I predict drama with Kathy like some people have suggested.

I know, I thought that was pretty funny. His nickname and his personality work in tandem.

LOLLOL

Both of your posts cracked me up! Anywho (props to imsvu) Dick's background is that he was in the Marines with Elliot. Then later tried to get Elliot an opportunity for flight training school, but Elliot turned him down. Then of course, he went from there to astronaut. I don't believe he is on active duty. But then again, he was putting on his dress blues in that final scene with Stabler. Though, that could've been for a dinner or appearances sake. That description also said he was linked with Stabler.

For now, I still think it's him.

I really hope this isn't the guy Olivia supposedly makes a date with. Attractive for an older guy? Sure, but much older! The man was born in 1940 people...he's almost 68 years old. I'm not a huge fan of his son, Josh Brolin, but at least the age would be more appropriate. I guess we'll see...

Yeah, he's been in a bunch of things

James Brolin huh? Is he the one that plays Dick Oswald or whatever the last name is, right?

well i do remeber reading the spoiler and it said she said yes to go out on a date with him, cuz she wanted to see if he really did or something like that, hopefully thats the case

Hahaha, I'm totally with you! Who the hell is doing their casting anyway!? Olivia is not 55! Sheesh.

Yes! That's right! There was someone hanging from a window ledge or something, right? And he went to help that person and was like "Here. Let me give you my good hand..." Ahahahaha! That was so funny!

Totally random and OT, sorry.

He could be a creepy stalker, yeah? I'm guessing he'll stalk Olivia maybe? Or the new ADA? Most likely. (Totaly sarcastic) Gotta have some soap element to SVU these days...........

Better..he stalks Elliot. ;-)

Or... he stalks Cragen?

OMFG! The writers or producers or whoever hires these actors are killing me!! i mean First bill, and now this guy?? who btw is a Whole lot older than bill. Man! and i thought you couldnt get any older than bill pullman! Ugh! when i read the spoilers i pictured a tall, Fit, Sexy, tough, Brave, Stand tall big bootied Detective....oh shoot wait thats Elliot well..i guess i pictured a look alike... BUT instead i see this???! This is not a tall, fit, sexy, brave, stand tall big bootied man! Def. not what i pictured.


Very angry >_<

I wouldn't trip too much. She and this old grandad don't even go out on a date. He just asks her and she, for some dumb reason, says yes. But...she must have come to her senses because doesn't she cancel? Perhaps this dude could be good for something. From a shipper perspective, others can ignore if they wish, he could get Elliot to realize that Olivia isn't going to wait for his dumb butt forever.

I don't see why everyone is complaining about Olivia dating someone older. My uncle is 15 years older than my aunt and they have been happily married for almost 50 years. And in my opinion, yeah I know what they say about opinions, but I think Olivia has too much class to go after a married man.

That's true but the guy is nearly 30yrs older which is a much bigger jump. Anyway this guy is mainly going to portray Elliot's hero from the earlier days who happens to ask Olivia out. So that's primarily why they cast him in the role, I wouldn't worry too much

He isn't in his 70's on the show...Olivia is in her 40's...so it isn't that big of a jump...I could care less who Olivia dates as long as he isn't married and treats her right.

All I know is that I am looking forward to this new season, since last season we had the writer's strike and I think we got short changed on the new eps if you ask me. It seemed waaaaaaay to short, or was it just my imagination?

I like the idea of Elliot's mum coming to visit, and I can't wait to see what happens. I wonder if she will say something to Kathy about the separation.

Man, I can hardly wait!!!

PS I wouldn't think twice if Olivia was asked out by Sean Connery, and he is in his seventies, isn't he? That man is still hot!!!!

A married man? Do you mean Elliot?

Not necessarily...I mean ANY married man...In my opinion, she has too much class and character to do something like that...

well, even is she is, she doent look 40, and dateing an older man just makes her seem older than she really is, she could get away with dating a man in his 30s, so why shouldnt she?? you think theyre pressing the absent father thing a little too much?? i do..

All it takes is is a quick little jump in time, divorce papers signed and two very single adults who need and love each other. LOL! It's happened on TV before and has happened on SVU before. But...lets not go there. I would rather have a man that would love her but her own age. I'm sick of old guys getting hot chicks on TV/Movie. It's such a cliche and so needs to be booted. I want a guy her age and on the same hottness level as her. Bill wasn't even close to her hottness level. LOL! But...I'm not too worried about this old guy. He's a gonner in one eppy anyways. Kind of like Kurt but I bet he gets more air time.

thats exactly what i was about to say, she wouldnt go that low and have an affair with a married man, especialy with how much ppl shes seen that have commited murder because of that sort of thing,

I agree. If we're looking for a young, single man with good looks, and has the qualities of a man Olivia's been looking for, that would work for me. Most importantly, that this man deeply cares for Olivia, and knows how to treat a woman.

I don't think Olivia would go for a married man. A married man might go for her. LOL! But Olivia would never follow.

She is a beautiful woman...any man who isn't gay would definitely give her a second look...lol..but like I said she is too Classy a woman to date someone she knows is married...

Remember in Annihilated where Malcolm Royce explained that he loved both his wife Lindsay and his mistress Cynthia very much and Olivia said that she doesn't see that as love, she sees it as a betrayal. That alone would explain that Olivia would never go after a married man.

and theres proof to top it

Well this is TV so anything can happen. It all depends on the writers and what they decide to do with the characters they have created. Hopefuly it is in a way that everyone can be happy but I have a feeling someone will get hurt no matter what. If Elliot stays with Kathy and never persues Olivia, the E/O shippers will get hurt. If Elliot leaves Kathy and persues Olivia, the E/K shippers will get hurt. I think the best thing for everyone is to keep and opened mind and try and be sensative to other member's ideas. Otherwise a black day will follow.

haha, no kidding, but i just dont want the writers to completley veer off, and forget what they have written, like they have in the past, contradicting some of the things they had the characters say they would never do, elliot should have knocked on wood when he said he would have shot himself if kathy got pregnant again

hopefully the writers dont end up doing something thats completely out of character for everyone to where you find yourself thinking you know the person more than they actually do...

First, I love your freakin avatar! Mariska looks hot in that picture. Secondly, good luck with the mutuality cus it will never happen. Many members have tried to get everyone to get alone and respect one another but...it hasn't happened. I doubt it ever will.

Unfortunately you are right...people can disagree without fighting or arguing...and just because someone doesn't agree with another person doesn't mean it is the start of a fight...Mary, you and I are notorious for being accused of fighting when we are only having a discussion...lol...if everyone agreed all the time this board would be boring...

Perhaps you are right my wise board member. Disagreements can be fun but it's when they get out of hand and someone gets hurt when the problem presents itself. The key is to know when to stop and just back down. Most don't know when to do that.

We usually know when to back off and take it off the board and laugh about it...but in the end, what really matters is that we remain friends...

Olivia is around 41/42, right? How do you know that Brolin's character won't be in his 60s in the ep? Like you, I don't care so much about the Olivia/Dick connection because according to the spoilers the more important story is his character's relationship with Elliot and the case.

But we have to keep in mind that "going after" and "falling for" are two totally different things. Liv may have feelings for El that she just can't help (and vice versa). The issue would lie in what she did with those feelings, and I think we all can agree that Liv is a class act, and she would go w/o before she pursued El or allowed him to pursue her.

ANDREA

p.s. And while we are on the topic, where in the sam hell is Vincent Spano?!

Hell Yeah! I'd go out with Mr. Connery and give him lots of babies if that is what he wanted. That man is hot, and I think he's about 75.


ANDREA
