Michael C Great show and still going strong and Mariska Hargitay is one of my favorite actresses ever and still gets better every single episode!!! Still the best!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/24 Full Review Audience Member Used to love this show now it's just full of lazy writing and washed up actors. So sad 😞 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Sooo preachy! During Covid tv is a good place for escapism. Not SVU. We never used to miss an episode. Now 5 minutes in we turn it off. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member This has been one of my favorite shows on television for years and I was very excited to see it was coming back for another season. I didn't even get halfway through the first episode without turning the TV off... extremely disappointed. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I normally love this show and the characters. What I don't love is the preachy tone. If I want to be preached at, I'll go to church. When I watch TV I want to be entertained. Good storytelling, please, fewer platitudes in search of a character to spout them. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member So disappointed... what is wrong with Hollywood.. finally we get the chance to escape the reality of our daily lives and they open an entire season rehashing the past 10 months... Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
