FUCK YEAH SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT

mulaney:

I’m watching a nearly perfect episode of SVU.
1) Fisher Stevens is guest starring as a real theater-type.
2) His name came up right when Fin Tutuola was trying to get the facts.
3) It’s about an attack at a “Sleep No More” type play where everyone is wearing masks. Anna saw the real play and says their research was shoddy at best! Good work SVU! It seems more like Eyes Wide Shut or a strip club, but people in the episode keep blaming interactive theater for this girl getting defiled. Whaaa whaaa.
4. Holy shit Miles from Murphy Brown just showed up. He’s a theater critic! He just said “if I wanted to attack an actress i would do it in print.” Whoaaaa!

LOL LAW & ORDER: SVU

He really was the worst. Haven’t seen his credits this year, perhaps because Warren Leight has more than half a brain cell when it comes to running a writer’s room.

What do you think about this year’s writing? Are the plots, dialogue, and pacing better or worse?

poploser:

A screenwriter wonders how the hell he’s going to come up with an original plot for a new episode of Law & Order: SVU.

But wait, if I go with the bullying story, I’ve got to find a way to make it sexual somehow so the Special Victims Unit would get the case. I hate this. I have to take every vague idea I have and turn it into some terrible sex crime. It’s like that episode where I had to write a scene where the doctor found two dice and an egg timer in someone’s rectum. Do you know how weird it was to come up with that idea? Was it weirder that I came up with it after I played a board game with my family?

Once you’re two deep, grab a refill and turn on the television. Watch Law and Order: SVU. Get indignant if it’s an episode where Stabler and Benson are ‘taking a break.’ “Who is this bitch, even. Who is she, making out with Stabler when he’s separated from Kathy. GTFO. Oh Benson, you work in computer crimes now? Since when? You don’t know shit about computers. Give me a goddamn break with this crap. I love this show.”

Oh shit guys, it’s official — somebody was able to get inside my brain.

I do hate to break it to you but the consensus among astute show fans is that the police work on this show is more camp than gritty. On a police realism scale of 1 (Batman the TV series) to 10 (The Wire), SVU is probably a 4. Would particularly cite the tidy wrapping up of cases in two weeks time (crime to conviction) as distinctly unrealistic. But then again, if you are somehow inclined toward a career in law enforcement, don’t let that stop you! And never watch The Wire.

Oh God, someone please play this with me.
