This is the best show on tv. I love all the characters. Olivia Benson being my favorite! My husband and I watched regularly. I continue to watch. I am very glad it has been renewed. I agree Kathy Thomas. I know I do. After putting it off for years, the seasoned detective finally took the sergeant's test and got his papers, but will somehow stay within the unit despite protocol that demands otherwise, and there's a perfectly good explanation for that -- you just didn't get to see it on air.
The show will explore how Fin was able to accomplish the feat, which "had something to do with that memo that Fin waved around in front of Dodds," in an episode next season. But for now, fans can take solace in the fact that Finn is definitely here to stay. Also sticking around is Benson who, let's face it, is hands-down the heart and soul of the show. And if you thought that after 19 seasons of emotional turmoil the show would finally give her a break, you'd be dead wrong.
But she will go through some kind of personal problem [next season]," Chernuchin teased. Did you know Edit. Goofs As soon as Lt. Benson realized she had found the apartment they were looking for she should have notified the command post and requested backup. Instead she went in without waiting for backup or even calling it in, which not only violates standard procedure but violates the direct order of the deputy chief who was in command of the search.

The worst episode ever. Acting was godawful. Details Edit. Release date May 23, United States. Wolf Films Universal Television. Chris, I asked you a few days ago about ratings, as Season 20 is now Thursdays at 10, following comedies whose ratings don't normally do well at all.
I said I was worried, and I want to know what you think of this: I still am, and it's highlighted by this awful finale. I also agree, two hours was simply not needed. I'm surprised I never fell asleep. The episode gets a 1 out of 10 from me, and it only has that because it managed to make me feel many emotions all at once.
Albeit, for the wrong reasons, but the writers got what they wanted out of me either way. God, what a horrible episode. I now fear Season About Stone. When I said I don't care for him, it's not in regards to his personal life.
He saw his sister being killed, something no one should be forced to experience, and he came to New York just in time for his father's funeral. At first it was because of the way he handled cases, and sometimes I still don't like it.
But I must admit I was cheering him on during this episode. No matter if she listens or not, Benson deserves Stone's "lectures. I feel that was a sharp jab at Barba, and I don't like that. Granted, I didn't care too much for him on Chicago Justice either, but I love Barba so much that I think that's where I still get my distaste in Stone from.
Guess I need to let Barba go and give Stone a chance. Oh my goodness. I hated this episode and Benson's attitude so much that I was hoping beyond hope that Lourdes was wrong, and that that Miguel was NOT her trafficker.
As you said, she has zero objectivity at this point and shouldn't be leading this squad anymore. Old Olivia wouldn't hesitate to arrest a rape victim who exacted her own justice, but this Olivia wants Lourdes set free despite her murdering someone and there being no evidence to support her claims about Miguel. I'm so angry they made Olivia right about him. As a lawyer, I couldn't help but be on Stone's side as they had NO evidence that Miguel was the trafficker.
Everything Stone said made sense, and nothing Benson said did. Stone needs evidence to prosecute, Olivia. You used to know that. And like Laurie pointed out above, did Olivia have to be the one in the hostage situation? Why not Finn? Or Carisi? I'm sick of Olivia. I'm sick of her crusades. I'm sick of the show being entirely focused on her. They need to let some of the other detectives - esp.
Finn - shine. Give a chance on Peter Stone. I like him. Olivia, I am very tried of her, including Sheila and Noah stituation. All about her. Maybe there is something building for Olivia?
She's been going through a lot, and maybe that's why Peter is here: to open her eyes. I surely hope so , because I love Peter so much. And do you remember when Michael said that he wanted viewers to choose a side while watching the episode? This is practically chosing between Stone and Olivia. You go for the law? Choose Stone. You go for the moral? Choose Olivia. So yeah, I think Michael is doing this on purpose.
Maybe something will happen on season 20, something that could give the show a proper ending in the future. Like Olivia realizing she's a bad lieutenant due to the fact that she takes it all too personal? Peter helping her to see the reality of the things? I mean, if Michael really wanted Olivia to be the focal point, we wouldn't have these arguments between Stone and Olivia. Maybe this is all for something that will happen in next season. I think the finale was tolerable, not the best one, but not really the worst one for me.
This season was good and then it was bad and then it was good again, but I hope it all gets better by season 20!
For the time being, I will continue to unconditionally love Stone : nice review! While going back through my initial reaction, I noticed I did like more of the episode than I felt I did. For example, Philip Winchester stole the ending scene, and Genesis Rodriguez was great as well. And while again, 2 hours was not necessary, I was intrigued by the story. Not Benson's behavior or the like, but the story itself. I feel it maybe could have just been executed better than it was.
Sorry I disappeared for a few days. Family visiting from out of town, combined with the fact that Blogger decided to stop emailing comments to me and I had to check them manually. Draven Long - I think as more people let the weak finale sink in, the worries for a loss in viewers at the new time slot sinks in.
I've received a lot of direct emails from people who are not going to watch the show any more. The writers will have to bring their A game to keep viewers, and if the stories are anything like the finale, they may lose some. There was quite a bit of angst from some about the fact that they only brought Stone's sister into his story line so they could kill her later to give Stone more of a back story.
All we cab do is wait and see how they fare in the first week or two of the new season. If they aren't great, the show may not make it through a full season order. I figure Stone won't be around much longer next season-he'll get a case that makes him go vigilante and lose his job, and Benson will, at least partially, have ruined another prosecutor's career Benson of all people should know that someone's experience might be a reason for their behavior, but never an excuse.
Hopefully part 2 will redeem part 1, but I agree with others comments that the other members of the team need more storylines. Draven The show could get a shortened Season 21 order, say 13 episodes, which would do the trick. If everyone wants SVU to make it to Season Get better writers. Tried of drama personal lives. I did like the season finale.
