Wonderfully offbeat film!

Disturbing yet enthralling

How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

This show could have easily been offensive and insensitive, but the stories are handled very well. I would say that it appears to be quite realistic; some of the victims are bad in themselves, or just plain idiots. Sometimes the outcomes of the cases are not what you would expect, but that's true in real-life, too. Sometimes the bad guys win, sometimes you are never quite sure if the defendant is actually guilty or not. Sometimes even the police and the judges are the bad guys!The show could be tough and upsetting viewing for particularly sensitive people, so I would use discretion before watching. However, although it appears to highlight flaws within the justice system, it shows what an uphill, unbeatable slog they go through to try and bring that justice to deserving victims. Whatever your opinion, the show is certainly gripping and one of my favourites.

This used to be my favorite of the L&O franchise, until Stabler left. The last several seasons have done nothing but shamelessly pander to a political agenda, rather than focus on engaging plots, as they once did. It's regrettable that this show has become such a disappointment. It feels like I'm watching a sinking ship.

I watched this show from the beginning, enjoyed most episodes, and even enjoyed SVU marathons on rainy weekends. Sadly, this season I decided to turn the show off for good. This show has always been a liberal love fest, but in the last few seasons it's become unbearable. Christians are often referred to as crazy religious fanatics who belong in mental hospitals. Every time there's a crime against a gay character, a Muslim, or an illegal immigrant, one of the cops yells, "this is America", "there's so much hate", "it's 2017!" In case the directors haven't noticed, the world is not a safer place to live, it's getting worse! Things don't get better just because it's a new year, and since when do cops not report people breaking our laws? I didn't realize cops get to choose the laws they want to obey. We know NY is a sanctuary city, we don't need it rubbed in our face! Keep up your hard core liberal agenda SVU! Continue to alienate more of your audience with your continuous liberal agenda and hate for people who love this country, and are tired of seeing our laws broken, and referred to by dried up politicians as deplorables! Let's just continue to rag on conservatives values and blame Trump and all the other crazies in D.C.! This show has really jumped the shark and should've been cancelled along time ago! Olivia Benson needs to stop making promises to people, she knows she's not about to keep most of them, Sadly, this show has been renewed for another season. And in case no one heard, Obama was known as the "deporter in chief, for good reason!" Guess SVU forgot about that one! Maybe Olivia will take her boyfriend's advice and retire. She can take her hateful liberal mouth with her!

Same old story every week ..."rape"... Rape victims aren't the only... "special victims"... With all the money the show supposedly reels in from sponsors, you'd think that they could possibly tap into something other than rape. They once said that they take real world situations and put their own spin on them. In the real world, more than rape happens, and there are special victims created because of them.
