Do you think USA should air L&O: SVU in order of apperance?
Just a thought...
yogooo
if it aired in order...and someone atucally wanted to catch it all in order--they would be glued to the tv forever. usa shows svu alot...

although i wouldnt mind seeing it in order--but i have a life...so i dont think it would work for me.

I think it would be a great idea because then everyone would know the ep and what season it was from.

It doesn't really matter to me for a show like this where episodes don't depend on each other's sequence. Just about every episode is a self-contained independent unit, and you don't really need a whole lot of reference to understand the main plot (though the detectives' personal lives may leave questions for the less informed).

Gilligan's Island is the epitome of this. I've seen plenty yet I don't even know how many seasons it ran, nor care. lol

Star Trek is sort of the opposite. While the original series isn't very reliant on order, series like Deep Space Nine are better viewed and understood if watched in the correct order.

i think its a good idea, cuz then we would know wat is next, and if we can have a shower break. ohmy.gif lol jp i take my shower before svu or after. NO inbetween

it used to air in order on USA, but since the show has been on the air so long, mixing up the order keeps it fresher (you never know what you're going to get)

The only problem with it being out of order is showing some of the not so good ones too often. not that there are any BAD ones but there are some episodes you can get sick of because they are shown too often.

it would be so cool if they showed it in order! like if they did a 3-day thing (fri-sat-sun) for like several weeks! i wouldnt go nowhere!

Well i didn't meen like a three day thing i meant if they appeared in order u noe... like keeping the same time slots but arranging them in order...

At the very least, they tend to show episodes in the order when they are relevant to one another. Like I;ve noticed they don't chop up and transpose the Jefferies deal or Stabler's HIV scare, although if you tune in late you might be confused.

I dunno... Its just lately ive seen the same episodes twice or even three times... im not mad that im seeing them again... i just want to see other episodes...

My only thing is I already own season 1 on dvd. If the started playing them in order, i couldn't watch for like a month!!! But since it's not all about me (sigh..hehe) I guess i don't really care
svu_fanatic
yea. cuz then u could totally memorize all the episodes & kno like every like! that would b kool!

no. because then you'd have to wait several months to see the new episodes. Sorry, just my opinion.
