Nothing like the sweet, sweet, smell of JUSTICE. TV justice.

I prefer slightly old SVUs--nothing like the sweet justice of catching rapists and child molesters--and vintage L&O (RIP, Jerry Orbach). But yeah, I really do like it.

In Margaret's defense, I loved L&O back in the day, too. When I was in college (late-90's), A&E would show it something like 4 times a day? Absolutely insane. I actually missed classes because I'd get sucked in to an episode and was too enthralled to get off my butt and get to class.

i'm hoping lara rips her face off like she did in poltergeist 2, the one that was set at the john hancock center. anything would be better than how she looks like now. she used to be so hot.

"The high price I had to pay for doing my job."?!? Amy needs to come off her high horse. Nowhere in a journalist's job description does it say that it's acceptable to bring your kids to a pool party at someone's house whom you're investigating.

that's not Lara Flynn Boyle's face ... that's a mask. underneath is her real face, which is either "a normal looking face" which is probably attractive by "normal people" standards or Michael Jackson's old face.

Margaret, you took the words right out of my mouth.

Yeesh. I think Amy Jacobson wasn't too smart in her choices regarding the whole pool party thing, but turning her into a wife-murdering crazy on her own former network? That's pretty shitty. But then, it's Law and Order, what do you expect, the wire?

I love L&O! But...wtf happened to Lara Flynn Boyle's face? Jaysus, that's a lot of botox.

Man I hate this fucking show. It'll never die either because they'll keep lazily writing scripts that are "ripped from the headlines"
