Will Munch Have a Bigger Role?


All you Munch fans are in luck. Episode 4, "Uncle" is all about the Belz (that's what we call him). And the special guest star with him is the one and only Jerry Lewis.

COMMENTS

Neal,

First of all, great job with SVU! The show and the cast are simply incredible.

I'm writing in support of Stabler's temporary partner, Dani Beck. What an awesome, complicated character!! I realize Connie was only contracted for a six story arch, but did you leave any wiggle room for her to appear now and then as a re-occurring character? Each week her performance is absolutely riveting!. She's a female Stabler, and what could be more of a compliment than that?

Er, speaking of Dani and Elliot, are you just teasing us, or will there actually be a meeting of the minds, souls, and emotions with these two?

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?

Awesome premiere! I think the swearing adds color to the show. Please don't change a thing, except to bring back Ms. Hargitay.

LOL - Munch and Jerry Lewis. They're perfect for each other!

Dear Neal:
Please tell me how to get a producer to contact me regarding child abuse. I have a true story. I have many adults who have been in a position to help this child and we have all let her down. I had her safe for about 18 months but she was sent back to her parent. Both parents are abusers and the father is a sociopath. I have two child psychologists who would probably talk to you and other information including the case filed with the court. I intend to write a book but the child needs help now not later. Please consider helping me to help this child and get her some publicity as well as help other children. The father has insurance on the child and hopes the mother kills the child so his life will be perfect again, he won't have to pay child support and the mother will either skip town or go to jail. Please consider emailing me to help. You would be doing a tremendous favor to the children of our state, exposing those that do not help children when they know they are being abused and there will be many more interesting facts that will come to amaze you that this child has not been rescued yet. It will captivate your audience with things only I can help you with. This child needs you.
Thanks, Faith

What a way to start the new season!!

Please bring Olivia back. Her and Stabler are an awsome team and it won't be the same without her!!

Fan from day one.

Neal,

I've enjoyed this show for many years. As a Licensed Clincal Therapist I've found you characters that are Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Social Workers etc to be extremely credible. I would like very much to work with you as a professional consultant. I have 20 years experience working with children/adults. I'm clinically trained at Yale and currently work for the CT. Dept. of Children and Family Services as a Mental Health Consultant. I have some interesting ideas for storylines and character personalities and traits..

Thanks very much for your attention.

Sincerely,
Mary R.

How would I submit music scores/track to be considered by the NBC team? Is there a contact person for that? Much appreciated!

i hope mariska comes back bc she's my favorite :-(

Posted by tobi September 19, 2006
 

Olivia needs to stay in the show. Plus, you could totally work the baby into the show- make it hers and Stabler's love child!!!!

How would one go about submitting a script and/or show idea to SVU?

WOW! Great season Premiere. Loved the end. Marcia Gay Harden was amazing. I bet it was fun for Mariska to act with her since they are such good friends.

My question is will Elliot and Olivia ever really talk about what happened in the episode "Fault"? When will they actually be in the same room again?? haha..kept waiting on it tonight, but loved the episode otherwise.

Posted by Ashlee September 19, 2006
 

Please go back to the regular and successful format of the show with Olivia and Elliot investigating sex crimes. That's what made the show successful. I was patient with the weirdness the writers created with Mariska having a computer desk job while she was pregnant but now, if the format doesn't go back to what it was, I QUIT WATCHING. Don't ruin the show! Please! It's been my favorite for years. Put Elliot and Olivia back together fighting sex crimes again, otherwise you've lost one of your bigest fans.

SVU is incredible. Do you need any PA's for next season?! I have tv experience, would love to work on L&O. email me

I do hope Olivia will be back. You can't take her off.

Posted by ella September 19, 2006
 

Please cut out the profanity from your episodes. Tonight's premiere said "pissing away", & other past shows had much worse profanity. Have some respect for people who are offended by that. Surely you can think of other words for "damn, hell, shit, God damn, pissing", etc. Good writing is creative & elevated, not low down. Clean it up, OK?

Posted by Evan September 19, 2006
 

How does one go about getting cast on SVU? My agent isn't very well plugged in. Thanks.

Posted by P.C. September 19, 2006
 

Olivia and Eliot were so close as partners. Is there a chance that they will ever be partners again. And now that they are split as partners - is there a chance for a little romance between the two?

Posted by R.C. September 19, 2006
 

Again kinda of a different direction the show is taking. Any chance of normalty in the Opener for Law & Order, the original??? You know the one you moved to Friday nights??

Posted by shotgunstark September 19, 2006
 

bring mariska back!!!!!

I had no idea that was Munch on Scarface (the comedian at the club before the shootout)

i am a DIE HARD LAW & ORDER FAN!! you and all tha works are freakin brilliant...i'm hooked like drugs lol...but i wanna kno how do ordinary people get a role on the show?

Posted by Jama September 19, 2006
 

I did not like the episode, sorry. I don't like to think that Olivia and Elliott are not going to be together. This is the show that got me hooked on Law and Order and the spin-off shows from L&O. I even watch all the reruns and now they are not going to be together, I'm not happy.

Posted by stacey September 19, 2006
 

Hello, and thank you for such a wonderful show. The reason I'm writing is that I am an actor in NY. One of my dreams is to be on an episode of Law & Order. What would you suggest that I do to reach this goal? I've tried to mail headshots and go through different agencies, but to no avail. Any advice would be highly appreciated.
Thank you!

Posted by Michael E.Bell September 19, 2006
 

I have noticed in the last few episodes of SVU and in tonights premier that Stabler and Benson hardly are together anymore. SO I have to ask, are the actors fighting or not getting along?
Why are you splitting them up?

Posted by Bethy September 19, 2006
 

OMG!! not only am i in love with the show..... i want to meet dick wolf and you!!! Or atleast be able to see the show in action. (dount it) a girl can dream correct... But yes this last episode was some intense but please bring olivia back her and elliot are my ultimate favorites!!!! ♥ ME

Posted by Samm foster September 19, 2006
 

What a great show! I hope Mariska isn't leaving but what a great twist! I can't wait for next week!

Posted by Lindsay September 19, 2006
 

Oh yeah, how do you become an extra on the show?? I would love to!

Posted by Therese September 19, 2006
 

Bring Mariska back she has appeal for guys and girls. I want her and stabler bac working cases. You cannot break up the team.

Posted by strongpoint44 September 19, 2006
 

I love watching SVU. Will Oliva still be on the show. At the end of tonights show, she went undercover.

Posted by Gale Camuso September 19, 2006
 

I think it was great having Star back, too! I still have trouble reading her, though. I have trouble getting past all the horrible things she did and said in her first episode.

Looking for any new, undiscovered guest stars??

Posted by Crystal September 19, 2006
 

I am confused... is Mariska on maternity leave? Is that why she was never in a scene with Chris Meloni, and why she ostensibly left at the end of the episode? Will Benson and Stabler be normal partners again soon?

SVU is not the same without them as a pair... please say this is the case.

Posted by Victoria September 19, 2006
 

WILL ELLIOT BE WITH HIS NEW PARTNER FOR LONG?

Posted by CHRISTINA September 19, 2006
 

Are there any more plans for cross-over shows with the other l & W's?

Posted by Bob Rogan September 19, 2006
 

We enjoyed watching Mariska and Marcia Gay Harding work together. We hope Marcia is in more episodes with her. Good team.

Posted by A U September 19, 2006
 

What on earth is happening with Mariska? I was shouting at the tv. I dont want her to leave. She is one of the best woman on the show. Please bring her back.
thank you, april

Posted by April Dunn September 19, 2006
 

will Mariska H return to Law and Order? I thoroughly enjoy watching her and Christopher work together?

Posted by Dolly September 19, 2006
 

Don't get rid of Olivia and who is the new character in the SVU picture? Elliot and Olivia are great together please don't throw in some new fling blonde as his partner.

Posted by Kate September 19, 2006
 

OMG, i watch SVU just for Olivia, she's like the bestest role-model ever!!! and her partnership is incredible, it can't be lost. ;.;

Posted by kare September 19, 2006
 

I started watching SVU when it first aired.I watch it on NBC and all the reruns on TNT.I say that to say I am hooked.This show is what introduced me to the other Law and Order shows.Please keep up the good work,Eternally a fan,Asia

Posted by aishatu mensah September 19, 2006
 

I love your show Law & Order: SVU. I have season 1 & 2 on DVD. I was looking for seasons three and 4 and can't find them anywhere. Season 5 is already out. What happened with season 3 & 4 and how can i get them on DVD.

Posted by Skyler Wynn September 19, 2006
 

if oliva is not on the show anymore im never watching it again. forget "making an appearance" is that will be her only role in the show from now on and elliote is getting a new partner im never watching again. horrible show. my favorite show is ruined and just went from my favorite show to the worst.

Posted by maria September 19, 2006
 

I absolutely LOVE SVU and the chemistry among all the characters. Is Mariska taking some family leave and returning soon? I'm concerned that it ended with the thought of a "permanent" partner change while she's undercover. I hope she will return because I think she is great! Keep up the great work! I never miss an episode!

Posted by Sue September 19, 2006
 

Dear Mr. Baer,
I am an aspiring actress here in Columbia, SC. Love your show, and the premier. Could I please audition for an walk-on role for Law and Order? I would pay my own transportation to come to the auditions.

Any chance of a crossover with CI or the original this season?

Posted by JSpot September 19, 2006
 

Loved tonight's show as usual! Love the entire Law and Order series!!

Posted by Mary Anne September 19, 2006
 

Loved the premiere...Does Elliot miss her in a romantic way? or platonic?

Posted by Therese September 19, 2006
 

Love the premiere. However, if you are going to make it real, don't show an FBI agent and the Police in a restaurant discussing SECRET, Classified information with who knows who sitting beside them.

Posted by John September 19, 2006

Posted by Jess September 19, 2006
 

Great episode, but now I'm terrified. Please don't kill of Olivia.

Posted by Ray September 19, 2006
 

I love this show, I have never missed an episode, and if you ever need an extra I would love to be in the pool, meeting Mariska is my dream

Posted by Theresa Hedrick September 19, 2006

Posted by matt September 19, 2006
 

Is Richard Belzer an Arrested Development fan? He was in a few episodes

Posted by T. S September 19, 2006
 

Great episode!! Mariska will be missed... just wondering- when she is back will we start seeing the entire cast work as a team again? A lot of last season seemed to center on Benson and Stabler. It is alwasy great when the whole team works together....

Posted by Steph September 19, 2006

I love detective Munch! He's one of my favorite characters!

It was great to see more of Mariska Gay Harding. But please, please bring Liv back! Mariska is fantastic!

Posted by Erin Lenseth September 19, 2006
 

Will major characters die in this season?

Posted by Anna September 19, 2006
 

Mariska had her baby in May 06, Why are they writing her off?? When will she return? And who is the new partner? She is just on maternity leave right? In this episode she was almost due or had the baby right?

Posted by Brittany O September 19, 2006
 

Is Mariska leaving the show? I'm so confused!! the cliffhanger was awesome.

Posted by lisa September 19, 2006
 

I've heard that Beltzer is quite a comedian -- does he bring that sense of humor on set with him??

Posted by Susan E Kohn September 19, 2006
 

What about Fin, what is up with him?

Posted by Stephanie September 19, 2006
 

Whooo!! It's about time we get to see more of the Belz! :D
