SVU rocks . Olivia and Stabler are the best part about the show .
DUDE! Bring back Olivia! It's obvious that she and Elliot like eachother!!!! And Dani and Stabler hooking up? Come on producers, WAKE UP! NO ONE WANTS THAT!
Dani does suck! As do all of her fans! Olivia fans rock! Mariska, we love you and can't wait for you to come back!
ok neal baer by now you have to think im a nut but i dont care i want olivia back svu isnt the same without e/o together. dani sucks! i miss liv
i was just thinkink about what you said about elliot in a big mess if olivia comes back with a boyfriend or husband im going to be so mad i think i just might have a stroke pleaseee dont do that to me. its a great show the best on tv dont ruin it olivia and elliot make the show what it is
i miss olivia
Team Olivia/Mariska you rock! Join our favorite detective now!
I miss Olivia!!!!
I don't think they should get together. I mean they are already to close as just partners. Could you imagine if they started sleeping together? That would be to much drama. As a lesbian I am always looking to see more lesbian roles represented on TV. But I have to say I would rather her personal life just stay out of the squad room.
wen u say big mess and it is like fault i WILL NEVER WATCH THE SHOW AGAIN AND TELL EVERYONE TO STOP CUZ IT IS SOOO STUPID PUTTIN THEM IN DRAMA IS STUPID!!!!
Ellvia! Ellvia! Ellvia! Ellvia! Ellvia! Ellvia!
(Can you hear the shippers roaring, Mr. Neal?). It's about time. May the Ellvia ship sail for a long long time and never sink. And may the the producers, writers, and Dick Wolf just let us have at least one moment that will leave us smiling like idiots.
If you are going to portray animal activists as crazy radical individuals, then at least show what they are so passionate about. Show a lab where animals are tortured senselessly. where they have their vocal chords removed so that they cannot scream. Is it really radical- or simply humane to want to stop this cruelty?
I have been a serious fan of L & O from the beginning. This would include episodes of SVU, Criminal Intent, Trial by Jury, Conviction & Homicide Life on the Streets. The loss of Jerry Orbach was greatly felt. I hope to see all the cast members of these remaining shows that we have come to love all season long.
I think that Olivia and Stabler is an asset to the show. I enjoyed watching it, I really missed it but loved watching it daily on USA Network. When is the USA Network going to put more recent episodes of the show? Where can we buy all seasons of SVU?
I am glad to hear Olivia is not going anywhere. Loved the first episode. I was glued to my seat. As long as Olivia is with SVU on Tuesday nights, you have a viewer every week, including repeats. Awesome show!!!
Condolences to Mariska about her father, I hope she returns soon...
I can't deal with the seperation of Elliott and Olivia, I won't stand the thought of them not being a team. Is she coming back for good, is she going to be in and out all season? Ice -T turned out to be an awesome character, very funny too, munch and him and a comic relief to the show. The show is great the way it IS... don't separate Olivia and Elliott!! Will they become romanticly involved, EVER? I can feel the love they have for one another just by watching them?
I am a big fan and would love to see new aspects to the show. Any plans for new L&O series?
In someones comment they said that Mariska"s cantract is over after this season. Is that true, is she gone for good?
ahhhhh this was the best eppy ever! I cant wait until Olivia comes back though. I wonder how long she'll be gone?
I hope she comes back soon. I also hope that Elliot and Olivia can together. She needs to grow her hair back out also. She is the reason that I started watching the show, can't wait for her to come back.
any chance olivia & elliot are going to get together this season?
Thank you so much for the info. I am looking forward to see what will happen in the future. I skipped studying tonight just so I could catch the premiere.
I'm glad Olivia is staying. Her character is so inspiring and Mariska is such an amazing actress.
Christopher Meloni is awesome too. No one else can play Stabler like him.
Ahhh..I cannot wait for the next episode!
I hope she comes back soon. I also hope that Elliot and Olivia can together. She needs to grow her hair back out also. She is the reason that I started watching the show, can't wait for her to come back.
Give I-tea a big show during "Bensons"break. think it would help the show.
I wrote a song called The Users Blues that I would like to send you for the show. It will work with a dark theme. Can I send it to you? KK
when does the new season come to dvd
I just read this:
Rumors have begun about Stabler leaving. Please reassure us this is NOT true!
My voice is not that big since I'm just about 5 feet and 14 years young but Please let Olivia and Elliot work together peacefully again!
My deepest sympathies to Mariska who lost her dad this week.
We want Stabler and Benson together! Will you ever cross that line?
i dont think i can watch the show until olivia and elliot are partners again. i never miss an episode ever
Mariska is my favorite character and it's just not the same without her. I hope she will be back soon and stay around for a long time!
I thought it was really interesting that you brought the "hitler" lady in this episode. Will she become a more permanent character in the SVU family?
Awesome way to start the season. Props to the whole crew. But you guys aren't planning a romance between Stabler and Benson, are you...?
First off... I'm glad that Mariska will not be gone for long! She is one of the main reasons I tune into the shoe and has been an inspiration to me and my situation. So, I also just wanted to say congratulations on the Emmy! And I am also very sorry about the loss of Mariska's father!
Benson needs to come back to work like she just walked out of a spa - want to attract more viewers - bring her back hot and in a black dress. You will captivate viewers for the rest of the season!!
Fine - I'll wait until October to find out the big secret. Just don't make Olivia a lesbian or anything way out of left field (not that there's anything wrong with that). I would then think the writers are stretching it a bit.
Who will be some of the guest stars this season?
i would hate it if all the fireworkd betwwn them somehow had to force a end. I she found a women per say
Were any parts of the show pulled from any headlines? I LOVE Olivia Benson, who was mainly responsible for creating her character? Is she based on any real detective?
Are elliot and Olivia gonna hook up?
Loved tonight's show! Will there ever be some kind of romance between stabler and benson?
Oh My God!!!
We love your show!!!
We can't wait to see what happens in October!!!
Detective Olivia Benson is our FAVORITE!!!
We would have to stop watching it if she was no longer there!
Thanks!
Olivia is an integral part of the show. Mariska's chemistry with Chris is what makes this show hop.
i'm so excited for Benson and Stabler to actually have a relationship again. did they even have scenes together in tonight's episode?
Wow! amazing show...just when you think it cant get any better, you always find a way to just keep us coming back for more. Im addicted to the show! i absolutly love it! I love the fact that you make me look forward to my Tuesdays, Thanks! please, please, please keep up the great work.
Will there be an episode dealing with the aftermath of last season's episode, "Fault"? The relationship issue still seems confusing
Neal,
My family loves this show! Wish more awards went to it and the fantastic actors and writers!
My comment is since Elliot is divorced and Olivia is single, will there ever be any romantic involvement? It was hinted at in the past and it seems like a natural!
Thanks!
I read in a TV Guide article you were looking for a certain reaction from the audience with the episode Fault. Did you get the reaction you were looking for? I think it's the best SVU episode yet. And you know good and well WHY! :)
I hope this year Olivia and Elliot will get together. Maybe this life changing thing that will happen to Olivia will bring them together.
I am always astounded by the production quality of the L&O series, all of them. This one was clearly over the top. As a retired member of IATSE 44, I've done my share of episodic TV and know how grueling it is. Keep up the great work!!
Please tell me you are going for more seasons???? I hope many more!! your show is one of the best.. my husband and I love it
dont break up the best L&O lineup of the franchise! that would be foolish!
bring back hargitay asap!!!
There was a love interest that Benson's character had on the show from about 3 seasons ago. I think he was a cop, or a lawyer..Any chance that they will meet up again? What about stabler and the new chick from gladiator
How many episodes will Oliva be gone? I don't think the show is the same w/o her character.
Elliot + Dani = terrible idea. Bring me in to write an episode. I could come up with a better plot arc!
Is Stabler leaving the show anytime soon? This is something I heard during the last season.
Will we see more of Elliot's kids in the future? I know he is divorce now, but he still a dad. Who is going to be his new partner now that Olivia is undercover?
This is crazyyy! Benson needs to be kept in this show and I am a HUGE fan she has to stay in it. I can't believe this stuff.. and what about her and stabler? I cant wait!
Just please don't kill anybody important to the show. Can you find away to incorperate McCoy into the story line this year?
hey keep makin great episodes i love it cause it keeps me on the edge of my chair...also i have season one two and five on dvd but can't find three and four anywhere...please you have to tell me what's goin on with these missing seasons...and where i can find them!!!
Can't wait to see Olivia and Elliot working together in the same episode. Glad to hear she will be back in October
can you give us anymore hints about benson and stabler
Olivia has to be back, there's no denying it.Also sre you looking for screenwriters?
Hate to say it but Munch would be a great replacement for Farina in Law and Order
I enjoyed tonight's show. I'll certainly miss Olivia, for the time being. Mariska's great in this show!
Hey, just wanted to tell Mariska that she is my favorite actress and congrats on the emmy. Also, I wanted to offer condolences for the loss of her father.
As long as Benson and Stabler are on the show I will always watch :)
Thanks for easing my mind that Olivia wasn't going anywhere!
I usually don't go to websites and address anything about tv shows but this is my all time favorite show (I am 40 yrs old lol) and changes would severely have an effect on my viewing.
keep Olivia in svu
Who is going to be Stabler's new partner? I think I missed that.
I really enjoy your work. What has inspired you continue your medical career in spite of all your success in television?
I actually cried a little, I'm so glad to hear she's coming back...it wouldn't be the same without her. I'm already counting the days until the episode!
love the show
We're going to see Olivia back in October? I can't wait!
I understand of having Olivia go undercover but that was not the normal L&O ending. It was more like a soap opera ending making you ahve to watch each week to keep up.
Will there be a next season after this one? You gotta write a new show for Olivia - what she does post-SVU.
The connection Olivia and Elliot have make the show and hope to see them back in their routine soon.
Don't care for Harden's character, doesn't fit right!
Forgot to say Great show tonight! Look forward to Olivia being back. Great about Munch
I love SVU! Keep up the good work! Hope to see Olivia back soon. Neal you rock!
Stabler and Benson should really get together. They would be a good couple
I can't wait until she comes back.. I love olivia & I also love elliott.. I want those 2 to reunite very soon.. it's not the same seeing them apart.
Were any parts of the show pulled from any headlines? I LOVE Olivia Benson, who was mainly responsible for creating her character? Is she based on any real detective?
Which October show? I am going to be on vacation part of October and need to know when to set the VCR. Thanks.
Come on a hint.... please? I love the chemistry between Liv and Elliot.... It's one the things that makes SVU my favorite show......hint, please?
Will SVU and L&A have a crossover episode this season?
NEAL!!! Why is there such a large stoner demographic who all love to sit around and watch Law And Order? Is it a fascination with police work, or simply an attempt to understand the various nuances of the law and use them to their own benefit? BTW, Harry Dean Stanton rules.
And yah. Mariska's contract ens after this season. Her being back for five episodes at the end doesn't constitute as "coming back".
I don't have a question but I wanted to say that I LOVE the show. I am an acting student here in New York and Mariska gives me motivation! You all are doing so well with the show, it just keeps getting better. Thank you so much for bringing truth to television!
who is the girl in the picture behind Munch???
wow kept me on my toes the whole show, glad sbenson isnt gone forever and stabler wasnt blown up. great show! chirs and mariska make the show!
thanks for giving me such a great how to waste an hour of my life each week
GOOD. I would surely miss her presence.
your the best
Why was Olivia and Stabler never in the same scene....there aren't any issues between them is it?
I am excited now- best show on TV honestly- as long as she is staying, and making their characters more 3 dementional is wonderfull! Can't wait to see how the season pans out!
Great show!
any chance of bringing Alex back to this show?
I loved the episode tonight. SVU is my favorite b/c you never know what twist the storyline will take. But please, don't turn into the other L&O which changes partners every season. We love Benson and Stabler!
Can I guess? Maybe Olivia gets a boyfriend/ fiance and Elliot is jealous...?
You are so lucky to be working with such great actors! I have been watching the show from the beginning and I practically know all the episodes by heart, but I still like watching them again. My whole family loves SVU!
I love the show. Im an actor and NYC Police officer. I would love to be a part of your show someday. How bout it Neal.
Jesus, come on. I realize the x-files and Moonlighting didn't do it very well but you have to admit Mulder and Scully were meant to be together! And Gillian Anderson wrote that episode! Of course it was weird and crappy.
What editing system do you use to edit the show? AR you looking for any editors?
Oh...thank goodness Olivia's coming back!! I actually threw my remote at my TV when I thought you were writing her off the show.
What's with the new picture for SVU at the top of the page? There's a person behind Munch that can't be seen that looks like they're being arrested, and a woman I don't recognize. Is that Stabler's new partner?
Again, I say you rock, Neal! Awesome cast and crew, terrific show! Can't wait to see what'll happen.
Although SVU is now one of my favorite shows, will there be a lttle bit more of a story on Casey? And, even more importantly, will the show bring back Alex Cabot for a special episode like the previous season? Thanks!
Thank you for this info but the show will not be the same without Olivia on there regularly. I am not sure I could watch this show on a constant basis without her being there.
uh guys She's already had her baby.
so will olivia be off the show very long
Great show, as always; nice twist tonite; love the time slot (lets me sit down and enjoy it; only wish all L&O were on this time slot)Great job by the DA acting....
My question: is the new temporary partner a famous cameo? or someone unkown?
Sounds very intriguing. Can't wait!!!
You are so awesome. Cant wait to see what happens next
Any chance Olivia and the FBI's Starr can team up a-la-Cagney/Lacey?
I have two more questions:
1 - What advice do you have for a young person that is interested in the television business? Like, writers and producers, etc. And what type of education does that require?
2 - Will we ever get more insight on Dr. George Huang? Com'on, he's an awesome character! :)
Awesome Show!!!
I love Benson and Stabler...love the chemistry you have built between them. I hope that whatever the surprise is, it will be the first in bringing them back together as a team!
I'm glad Olivia isn't leaving and can't wait to see what happens. But I was wondering about Seasons 3 & 4 coming to DVD. What is up with that?
Will Ice T have a bigger role? My son is crazy about him as well as the rest of the cast. He'd like more Ice T Please.
Ahh, ahh! I say "Ahh!" You can't leave us hanging like that without at least a couple details... please?
WOW! I can't wait!! The suspense is killing me!! :)
Olivia is coming back, they are only writing her out for a bit b/c she's pregnant. Check out the "about" section for the SVU website.
Interesting story line with the e-coli outbreak
Again, you rock, Neal! Your whole staff and crew are awesome! I will tune in as always!
Hmmm, sounds interesting!
More stress for Elliot...good for him :P
Don't you think you're going overboard with the drama sometimes, so that it's not realisitc whatsoever? Although, I did love tonight ep, I don't think it would be good if it's something huge EVERY week.
I can't wait for this season to continue! What an excellent program :)
I'm glad Olivia will be back. I love her! I also love seeing her and Elliot work together. Will we see a romance between the two in the future?
AHHH!!! i can't wait...!!!!
thank you for this info i cant wait
