Right. A lot of parents in this country feel that a child should have about as much agency as the silverware: just another object to own. 

Only a good guy with a yacht... can stop a bad guy with... a timeshare?

Wow...this dude is afraid of someone using the tool he advocates for against him after said tool has already been used to murder countless children. The mental gymnastics this dude is going through are exhausting.

Oh, Wayne, I'm sure if you talk to any of the school shooting survivors, you two could commiserate. Or something. 

Haha, really? I actually didn’t know that! 

It’s hard argue against that fear that Winslet is talking about as those roles do become limited once you come out in Hollywood.

I would rather Kathy leave him for someone else than go out like this, suffering for plot advancement and blessing his future sex shenanigans.

So goddamned sad.

That scene. MAN. That’s Jayne’s daughter, all right.

Kathy was absolutely giving her husband her blessing. She knew she was on her way out, and she definitely knew that there was unresolved feelings there. That was her thanks to her husband for not messing around on her way out the door.

Agreed that the end-seasons lineup was best. But Jesse L Martin was gone by the final seasons of the Mothership. The lineup was Anthony Anderson, Jeremy Sisto, S. Epatha Merkerson, Linus Roache, Alana de la Garza, Sam Waterson.

I headcanon Barba as being unapologetically bi.

Agreed about not pairing her with Stabler. There’s no point really, they have zero longterm potential, it would just be a bone down thing, and then it would be immediately awkward and ruin their relationship (though it’s pretty damaged at this point anyway).

Agreed. I just see two people who view each other as family at this stage. They are only like a couple in the way that couples get after 20 years together and having peacefully let the sex part go! It would finish SVU off if they boned. Let’s not go there :)

Am I the only one who never felt any chemistry between them?

Besides that, I am tired of shoe-horning ever male character with Liv. The most annoying one was hinting there was something there with Barba. Barba?! That man is gay lol. Can’t nobody tell me that a man that well dressed, sassy, and interested in a single wom…

Next week: “Elliot, why did you say in your letter that you’re taking a vow of celibacy and also cut your own dick off?”

I loved her and Tucker. Remember when she was on the park bench and they made us think he was going to propose? He used her full name!

It would have been better had Kathy been off this mortal coil before the show started--watching her slooooowly head towards the light I’m sure was for drama (and the actress got one last paycheck) but it also makes the viewers feel like they aren’t exactly murderers but kinda...passively complicit? “Seriously bummed,…

Benson + Brian Cassidy 4 eva.

my wife loves this show and I can’t help but watch when she has it on...you’re just awful....awfully hilarious!
