We finally made it to an episode with Diane Neal (pre-Novak) so of course, we brought back fan-favorite guest that Jordan girl, We talk about dogs helping us like people more, Jordan being Peter Scanavino’s number one fan, O'Halloran, the great writing in this episode, various episodes we like, Grease 2, thoughts on Cabot vs Novak, The Jordan’s wanting a Law & Order: At the bar or Law & Order: At the Deli show, and Jordan gives lots of recommendations. There’s also a small surprise at the very end!

This episode was recorded in mid-May before our break. And it’s finally coming to your ears! We’re back and we talk about wanting a young Munch show, video games, the foster system, Cragen with kids, Cabot giving Glenn an out, the messed-up reason why the victim was punished, trying to throw off the trial, Cabot shifting the blame in the final moments, and much more!

We dive into Season 3, Episode 8 "Inheritance" on this episode, which Jordan and Crissy both liked more than they remembered. We discuss obvious temporary tattoos on the show, potential hate crimes, whether or not Dr. Huang speaks Chinese, a biracial perp & how being biracial affected him, and if violent genes can be passed down to family members. Mariska gives an outstanding performance in the final scene, which we (of course) fangirl over. 

This week we discuss season 3, episode 7 “Sacrifice” that features guest stars Mark Paul Gosselar and Elizabeth Banks as a married couple of porn stars. We talk about lack of health insurance as a plot device (and how we’re tired of it), the ongoing ‘does Olivia actually like pop (soda) or not?’ saga, Stabler’s coffee habits, the detectives lack of sensitivity to certain issues, and more!  

The SVU squad is joined in episode 3.06 “Redemption” by Detective John Hawk aka a random character introduced to give Stabler a taste of his own medicine. As usual, we have opinions! We discuss Stabler in a bad mood, the detectives drinking on the job, repercussions to putting an innocent man in prison, the ethics of letting a bad dude fall to his death, the Huang-Stabler Dynamic and more in this episode. 

We are discussing season 3 episode 5 Tangled. We talk about our love of Stabler, Cragen’s involvement/comparing him to current season Olivia, Crissy asks Jordan if he’d murder for her (spoiler: no), Cabot’s perfect line delivery, the board of photos, great Munch Fin scenes, our tabby sits in, and our favorite writers! 

We jump back into our regular recaps with Season 3’s Rooftop. We chat about the Fin Stabler dynamic, eating in the show, school musicals, good character moments, a show about young Fin, Malik’s character, the media’s involvement in cases, Fin’s unique perspective of both sides, serial killer facts, and more! 

We are here to discuss Stabler’s return in his new series Law & Order: Organized Crime. Obviously, Crissy and Jordan are huge Stabler fans so they had to discuss both episodes of the crossover event.  Jordan does a deep dive into the writers, creators, and developers of the show. We discuss Stabler’s Italian, favorite new characters, some choices we found strange, poorly photoshopped pictures in media, why Rome, and how well we did with our predictions!

We are joined (in person!) with Nick Holtzer & Emily Samara to discuss Stabler’s return to SVU. Crissy and Jordan are huge Stabler fans and Nick and Emily, well...aren’t. We talk about how fast-paced the episode is, Rome, The Stabler family (especially Eli and Kathy),  mentioning calling Nick out in a previous episode, where Stabler’s character will go next, comparing him to Amaro, the newer characters, EO’s confrontation in the hospital, obviously we find a way to mention Casey Novak and past ADA’s, we do bring up some moments from OC, season 22 overall, ratings, and how soon we think EO will be more than friends!

Cragen’s on the case for Season 3’s third episode, “Stolen.” This is a shorter one but not so sweet in content. We discuss character choices, the 3-part structure of this episode, Cragen on the case (we even make a little theme song), overexplaining “triple dipping”, and the awful situation everyone is in for this episode.
