Any fans of the shows? Personally, my favorite is SVU. I've watched CI, and it was okay but SVU won me over. I love the original too, and I watch them sometimes when there's nothing on TV. Or when there's a good case playing.

I like the original and CI. SVU is OK...
And on CI I'd rather not see the first 5 minutes (AKA "the Stiff") because it's more fun to watch it that way...
Lenny Briscoe was the best though...

Briscoe forever my friend. As for CI, I agree. It's much fun to see it that way as well.

I lurve SVU! CI is alright....Elliot is HAWT! But I don't watch it only for Elliot okay? The cases are awesome and the court part will have you on the edge of your seat. I get sooo mad when they the rapist or whatever on some stupid technicality! But sometimes they get paid their dues when the victim takes the law into his/her own hands....GO VIGILANTES!

Gran Gran: XD Now I feel like watching some Law & Order. @sovereign: Elliot! <333 There was a rumor going around that Christopher Miloni and Mariska Haritigay(sp) were leaving the show! I hope that's not true, SVU wouldn't be the same without Benson & Stabler.

I love Law and Order and SVU, but I've never really been able to get into CI.
I haven't been watching the new episodes of the original beacuse I don't like Eddie Green having a girl partner. L&O has always felt like a boys club to me and her being there is odd to me.
SVU is better than ever especially now that Olivia is back (Beck was really starting to get on my nerves towards the end there). I love the stories and all the dectives are really great characters. I demand more Munch and Fin! Which reminds me...there's an SVU marathon on USA right now!

Oh yeah, I saw the SVU marathon last night! Those were some good episodes.
CI is okay, but I don't really watch it at much. Same with L&O, I love it but I don't watch it as much. I'm a bigger fan of SVU. And I agree, I didn't really like Beck. She was okay but...I dunno, there was something about her. I also didn't like how she and Elliot had a romantic relationship so easily. But I guess that's because I'm a biased fan because I wanted Benson back. I'm glad she's back, I wonder when they'll show the new episodes.
And yes, more Munch and Fin plz! Srsly, they need more airtime. At least a few cases with them. I love the Benson and Stabler partnership but Munch and Fin need some more loving.

I LOVE Law&Order and its other offsprings.
Dude. The shows rule, especially SVU and CI. Munch is da sexy bomb (check my icon xD), and Goren is teh shizz. I would marry his brain man, cuz the guy is the smartest cop to ever live in television history.
Anyway, the shows themselves are fantastic. I love the different takes, and the unique cases each of them have, and despite their differences the court room dramas still leave me breathless and in suspense it's crazy. I also love how the episode starts with a mysterious crime (especially CI), and how the plot unravels throughout the episode, then ending with a cliffhanger. It's awesome. ;D
And what's this talk about Christopher and Mariska leaving the show? Link please. I hope that remains a rumor, because I can't take new characters after being familiar with the original ones for almost four years. Take CI, for example. I'm seeing more of Logan and Barek/Wheeler than Goren and Eames, and I'm kind of annoyed by that. But eh, Goren in real life is suffering from health problems, so I understand.
Also, yeah, Beck was starting to get on my nerves too. When she appeared in that episode where she and Elliot kissed (they were drunk guys, so the kiss didn't count, lol), throughout the episode Beck seemed really weird. The camera kept zooming on her, and I could tell the director wanted to put forth that her character was hurt, but the way she portrayed her expressions to show that was bleak, so I didn't buy her at all. At least Benson's back now--woot!
And I totally agree with more Munch and Fin screentime! NBC needs to do a spinoff show with those two, seriously, because they're in a class all their own. How about "The Adventures of Munch and Fin"? : D

I love SVU and like the original, but I never got into CI.
I thought Beck was okay (she was passionate about her job, even if she wasn't meant for special victims), it did irk me that Stabler and her had a thing so soon. I love when they interrogate the suspects especially, Stabler, because he gets ticked and goes right into their face. I'm just there staring in awe. I love all the characters in SVU, they're just made of awesome.

I misquoted that! But basically, here's the story: www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,236660,00.html They're CRAZY. SVU is one of the best shows ever. [/biased] And I agree, a spin-off with Munch and Fin would be awesome. ;D stinkypinky: The interrogation scenes are always awesome. Stabler's crazy like that.

Aw, that just breaks my heart, but it's to be anticipated, I guess. Money talks. I hope they'll do a spin-off show with Munch and Fin as a replacement. [/dream]
