It's a procedural cop drama where they always catch the bad guy within 40 minutes, what is the appeal of shows that are this predictable in an era of shows like The Sopranos and Leftovers?

Hell, even The Wire did cop drama better than this shit.

They got rid of Casey, the only reason I watch it.

I kind of like how cheesy the later seasons are. It's just so bizarre sometimes and the acting is so hammy I love it. It becomes a game where you predict the twist and how characters will react. It's great how they juxtapose very serious things with such over-the-top writing. It's charming in its own way. Early SVU is great for Munch, Tutuola and Stabler. SVU is my fav procedural cop show.

Stabler left. Novak left. Stabler was the only everyman character, Novak best girl.

No reason left to keep watching.

Oh and I forgot to say that Barba is best DA. I love it when he gets snarky and angry.

>not one single mention of the word, "fuck" or variation of, from even Ice-T

It went wrong from the START.

This. Elliot carried the show. The last episode with him should have been the last episode of the show. He goes bananas, and after a raping rampage, he slices everyone up. Sitting in the middle of the office in a sea of blood and bodies, bird eye view, as he is about to blow his brains out he mutters 'We have been the special victims all along. I will join you in unity'. We see Elliot blowing his brains out. The camera stays on for 10 more secons before the episode ends with the 'dum dum' sound.

Early Stabler years > Post Stabler years > Late Stabler years

Show was at it's absolute worst from years 10-13, probably earlier honestly. Amaro and Rollins were a poor substitute for Stabler but Barba, Carisi and Murphy were great additions.

I had no idea this was still on the air

I just dislike the sjw pandering they're going for now, it really activates my almonds.
