what the hell is wrong with rhese people getting det.beck(connie neilson)and elliot(chris meloni)together in the show was a bad desision i know mariska was pregnant but come on it is not write all e/o fans you go and protect that just like me.
To those who love Dani:
Get your own board! This is Mariska's all they way! Dani-lovers will not be tolerated. Olivia-lovers rock! Long live our SVU queen! And may all E/O lovers still hang onto that good old ship!
i know mariskas on maternity leave but where are they pretending that Benson is while mariskas out?
i didnt like dani before tuesday episode but now i really dont like her after what she did to munch she wouldnt even be there for her fellow police officer she makes a lousy partner. i want olivia back! i wont watch until olivia and elliot are partners again!
I love Dani...I want her to stay on and maybe Olivia can join the Friday Law and Order. Dani has Great Chemistry with Elliot
I'm sorry I know you all have probably gone over this again and again but I have to ask. Why is Olivia gone, is she in a movie or something?
Neal,
I watched the first episode with Dani. She's tolerable but you're going to ruin any respect I might have for her if you put her together with Elliot while he's still married. It's OOC for him anyway. Besides, her brief stint only increases the Team Ellvia movement. You guys rock!
i tried i really tried im half way thru the 2nd episode i cant do it i cant watch svu until olivias back ill start watching when olivia and elliot are partners again i dont like dani
So glad Olivia is not leaving, I was thinking she wasn't coming back. Look forward to the season, this is my favorite show.
1 down 5 more to go untill dani is gone for good i dont like dani i want olivia and elliot back
I just wanted to send my prayers and wishes to Mariska and her family with her father's loss. I feel for her, and I hope she gets through this tough loss with the wonderful people she has around her.
who was the actor who played hayley's ex-boyfriend?
i dont like dani already i dont think i can watch svu until elliot an d olivia are back toghther again its not svu without e/o. there chemistry is unbelievable the best on tv. put them toghether romantically.I dont like dani.....
fault was a stupid episode and because of it we have to suffer with connie...WHY???
Neal,
Honestly. I got so upset when I found out that Elliot and Dani were getting it on, I had take an advil. Even when someone mentions her name it causes my SVU friends and I to shudder. You did a poor job replacing Mariska. So poor, my friends and I have decided to boycott the show until Mariska comes back. Long Live Chis/Mariska, Elliot/Olivia! Perfect friends, perfect partners.
I am disappointed by the uneven portrayal of so-called eco-terrorists. While some radical individuals do destroy property, rarely is anyone ever injured. These people are unfairly labeled terrorists when they are standing up against oppression, as people once had to do for women and blacks. The animals suffer immensely and for what - shampoo?
Please keep Olivia on the show. If she has to go, can the character just take a 'leave of absence' and come back later?
Was that Liza Weil who played the FBI informant?
Wow! I can't wait to see what SVU has in store for us. It keeps getting better! amazing how they never are short of ideas! This new season looks promising!
What actress played the FBI informant?
What actress played the FBI informant???
I thought last season was one of the best seasons for any long running dramas. But tonight's episode is just as great.
I truly love the intense emotional stories. This police drama is some of the best character-driven, good acting required TV shows ever.
I am looking forward to this season.
Please go back to Mariska and Chris as partners... very disappointing, the show has lost its spark. They make the show with their team.
How can I be an extra on Law and Order?
And are there going to be episodes with the cast from CSI and regular Law and Order. I like it when everyone comes together to solve a tough crime.
And why do the suspects talk to the police in the interegation room without their lawyers in every episode? Who is stupid enough to do that in real life?
i can't believe that olivia is gone (for a while) after only one episode! it's a nice twist, i just can't believe you pulled it so soon. elliot is seems so lost without her. i love this show though! great job! keep 'em coming!
So I take it that there will be a follow-up of this eco-terrorism episode later this season?
ROGUE MODS DELETING MY POSTS!!!!!
Also -- Was this episode at all inspired by V for Vendetta (head shaved for terrorist cell run by insider in Great Big Conspiracy -- line, "this one is going to light up the skies," mask behind which domestic terrorist hides, etc.)
Also-also: Were Star (sp.?) and the Conf.Inf. doubl-agent supposed to be like sisters, or was Star supposed to be in love with her (like V's replacement in Vendetta was in love with the lesbian movie star)?
isn't what the federal agent (i forget her name) used on liv called emotional blackmail? why did she fall for it? i know that the agent is working for the greater good, but she's extremely hasty in her judgement sometimes. she could have roped in someone else (a real insider of EDGE(?) perhaps). anyway, i really hope liv returns SOON.
I agree with all the posters that mention how much we love the relationship between Olivia and Elliot. I also agree that they can't take that next step and that makes the show that much better. Perhaps Elliot will move further with his new partner? Send my best to "Coach"
I really hope Benson isn't gone for long...I love the dichotomy of her and Stabler...they play off of one another with such ease, it is going to be hard to replace that chemistry
Is Olivia coming back to the show in later epiosdes?cause if she isn't, I don't think I will watch the show for much longer.
Please tell me Olivia is coming back!!!!, I do not want to see the them get together, but be partners again YES.
You always find great talent. Particularly impressed with the young girl who played the terrorist tonight.
Why is Mariska gone until october? What so long?
Listen, I don't know what this is all about but I can tell you one thing, Law and Order SVU is the only tv show i have ever watched and enjoyed on a consistent basis and i will NOT be watching it without mariska hargitay...definately. so please bring her back quickly...
this was the worst i have ever seen and i have them all very surprise at this
The episode was great; the twist-even berrer. Personal stories have never been sucessful on the regular Law and order but on SVU they really pull you into the show. Why dies it work so well here?
p.s. - can I be a dead body on a show?
She's my favorite character, and such an amazing actress! I hope she's doing okay with her baby and especially with her father's death. I'm glad that she got to thank him in her award speech before he died though.
Is Olivia coming back?!?!?!?!?!?! I really hope this Show goes on for a while its the best show ONEARTH!!!!!! ps Benson and olvia need to get together!

I loved the season premier.
I thought the show was great
great show. I am glad to stop watching reruns.
Dear Neal Baer,
Why was Munch only in the episode for a total of three minutes? Why didn't we know how Stabler was doing in the hospital? Why do you always end an episode like a cliffhanger?
Why is Mariska gone until october? What so long?
Don't think that I will continue to watch the show if Benson gets written out

How many episodes are going to be in this season? Have you seen baby August? Is he cute??
u should totally get Benson and Stabler together when she fets back...kind of like he realizes he doesn't realize how much he cares about her until she's gone.
Watching SVU is like watching a major feature film every week. How do you keep the pace and suspense going for each episode? It is quite obviously the best show on TV and it's the only one I watch without fail.
Please let Olivia come back!!! She can't be gone for good! I love her, she's the voice of compassion on the show
First off...my family and I would like to send our condolences to the Hargitay family for their loss. The season premier was awesome...a vey good way to make the Olivia transition to Elliot's new partner. I look forward to an exciting season and the return of Olivia to the SVU squad room.
I can't believe that Benson is going to be gone from the show...she is a great actress, and the biggest reason that I tune in everyweek....please bring her back SOON!
Benson is the greatest. PLEASE bring her back soon. I think her and Stabler make the best team out of all of the L&O's ever!!!!
Is this "new partner" temporary or permanent?
If Olivia's getting written out, I don't think I could watch the show anymore. Why would you get rid of your award-winning actress and one of your most dynamic characters?
She can't leave...is this temporary? Love the show!!
Is Olivia ever going to actually be back in the main cast? Hope so.
I would love to see Elliot and Mariska get together will that ever happen?
Is El going to get back with Kathy or are he and Liv going to get really close...oh and will he dump Dani eventually?? thanks awsum premiere!! Luved it can't wait for next week!!
I hope you know we cried when you took Olivia away from Elliot. And you only showed Munch for about thirty seconds...why did you do this to us???
How can I be an extra on Law and Order?
why is she leaving
I couldn't believe you were splitting them up again until I realized it was for personal reasons. I guess she is allowed to have a life =) I love the show because of the chemistry *they* have. Get a new partner if you must, but ditch her as soon as possible! We want Benson back!!!
I loved this episode -- The humor is snappier than last season, and the show is getting to be as cinematic as the letterbox format deserves :-D
I love the direction the show is going in. It is very interesting and different. The suspence is delightfully fulfilling.
yeah... it seems like if the Benson / Stabler team gets torn apart I just won't be able to like SVU that much... the chemistry, the team, evertyhing about it is just perfect.
I was wondering if Benson was coming back?
Love The Show
So sorry to hear of Mariska's father passing away
She plays her character very well
Look forward to watching more
Ok, well I don't subscribe to People mag so I didn't know of her pregnancy! Extended absences are understandable. But please bring her back as much as possible.
Great show!! i never miss an episode...and i love christopher meloni he is the best actor..please dont ever get rid of his character.. looking forward to mariska returning...also tonights episode with star and olivia was awesome great screen chemistry..thanks for the best show..
This is crap if Benson and Stabler aren't working together. This is why we watch the show
I really hope you aren't getting rid of Mariska... she is definitely my favorite character on any of the Law & Orders. Her chemistry with the others is real, and she's an amazing actress. I think I'd stop watching if she was gone.
I really like Benson and Stabler working together. You guys spent so much of last season with them working apart. I hope that won't be the case this year. And who is Stabler's temporary partner? Someone old? Or someone new?
Since Benson has been "reassigned" will she and Stabler still appear in the episodes or will her part be minimal?
it looked like emotions were pretty high when they couldn't reach Liv. Were emotions running high on the set when taping this?
SO she's not leaving the show??? Ok good, I was really worried!!!!
It was great!! I hope she's back soon
How is Mariska doing with the death of her father?
Will we be seeing more of Marcia Gay HArden? Why was Conviction cancelled? I loved it and there was good character development in progress!
Excellent show, although as an animal advocate I was disappointed to see you portray those that advocate for eco causes as terrorists.
PLEASE TELL ME THAT MARISKA IS NOT LEAVING THE SHOW AND THAT SHE IS JUST ON MATERNITY LEAVE BECAUSE I WOULD REALLY HATE TO STOP WATCHING SVU.
Love the premiere. Can't wait for Mariska to be back, she is wonderful. Who's the new partner?
I am very unhappy about this. Mariska is about the only reason I bother to watch the show....that and the great relationship with she and Elliott. Please bring her back
Please bring Benson and Stabler back together as partners! They care about each other so much, and I don't think the show is the same with them doing different assignments.
You guys are outdoing yourselves..just watched CI was please..then SVU..and it was hot. Can't wait to see what L&O does to top tonight's shows in their premieres. Keep up the good work but please make sure you bring back Mariska sooner than later.
So Mariska definitely WILL be back? Or will she be gradually written out..?
I dont want to see Stabler get a new partner beson and him are great parners.
how long do we have to wait until Olivia is back?
New partner...This is gonna be Elliot's second partner.
Question: Will Elliot get back with his wife or find someone new?
Hi, Great episode. But whats up with Olivia? She will return right? I love her on the show!
yeah i sure hope she comes back sooner.
i dont know if ill like him having this new partner.
*sigh* oh Olivia...
Great show though!
Ok, if you get rid of Benson that's it! She and Elliot are perfect! Don't ruin the chemistry. Why does her character seem to come and go, wasn't she away for an extended period last year?
Great show!
Is Benson ever gonna be Stabler's partner again??
Benson better not goooooo. i love her. she's half the reason i love svu more than the other onessss. Stabler would be the other half.
who is the new partner going to be??
Please don't keep her away forever!!! We need her back!! I'm missing her already!
I hope that Mariska and her new baby are doing great. I heard about the loss of her father today - please let her know that she is in my thoughts.
no im am not excited about this new partner thing. my friends and i are extremely upset over this!
Great episode!
I know some are rooting for Benson and Stabler to get together, but please don't do it! Can you say if there is romance in the future for them?
Who's the new partner?
Very cool. I'm excited to see how this new partner works out.
In case my question got lost in the piles of craziness: Will we get to see more of the Belz?
Well, I hope sooner than we think is right. I love her!!
