MissKNG Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Who is your favorite character and why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forty-two Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I don't watch much now - no cable - but I used to watch the original, SVU, and CI. Of those, CI was my favorite - I liked Goren. Otherwise, Munch on SVU is my next favorite character, followed by the male prosecutor on the original who was on for years and years (who I like so much that I can't think of his name :001_huh::lol:.)

simka2 Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I watch Law and Order UK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink Fairy Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Goren is my fave. He's just so odd! I miss him. Where did those shows go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matryoshka Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I used to watch both the original and SVU, but a few years ago I got Law & Order'd out. Got CSI'd out too - especially that Miami one. That redhead is just beyond annoying. Now if I want a good detective show, I watch Bones, the Mentalist and Castle. Love those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescrappyhomeschooler Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I used to watch the original, but got tired of it after Lenny left. Then, I was really into SVU for a while, but then started to get disgusted by it. I tried watching Criminal Intent, but couldn't get into it. Now, I don't watch any.

Quiver0f10 Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I used to watch them all but now I enjoy Criminal Minds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meriwether Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 We watch Law & Order, but it drives us nuts when they insert stiff or awkward conversations to make a political point. Especially because we often disagree with the point they are trying to make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey Mom Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I used to watch them all but now I enjoy Criminal Minds. I was going to post this! :001_smile: I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Criminal Minds! WRT the OP: I will watch SVU if I catch reruns on USA Network. My favorite character is Olivia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I like the original. I hated SVU, it was too intense and weird. I loved Goran on CI, but somehow just couldn't get in to that one. Right now my favorite detective dramas are NCIS and NCIS - LA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny_Weatherwax Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I love crime shows in general. I watch L&O (all three) and L&W (the orig.) is my favorite of the three. I also love CSI, CSI:Miami and NCIS. I will watch CSI:New York and NCIS: LA if there is nothing else on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny_Weatherwax Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I used to watch them all but now I enjoy Criminal Minds. Ooooh, that's a good one, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlmiraGulch Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I watch the original sometimes and I love SVU, but absolutely cannot stand to watch CI because of Vincent D'Onofrio (I think that's Goren?). Something about that guy...the way he talks, holds his face, squints his eyes, makes me cringe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncmomo3 Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 All of them, all of them-everyone version. ...but I must say, Goren is mighty full up with odd&sexy.;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheres Toto Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I love the original and SVU but can't stand CI. I still watch them but they aren't my favorite of these types of shows anymore. I love Bones and NCIS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something about that guy...the way he talks, holds his face, squints his eyes, makes me cringe! :iagree: He acts so weird it completely kept me from being able to get into the stories. It seems like recent episodes he's been replaced by Jeff Goldblum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarlaS Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I voted Criminal Intent. I can't quite stomach SVU. They have made homeschoolers, homebirthers and other groups they obviously consider to be "on the fringe" out to be total lunatics on more than one occasion. (To be fair, they may have done this on all their shows, I just noticed it on SVU.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikeBookBread Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 SVU creeps me out. Criminal intent is not that interesting to me. I'm a purist...I LOVE the original! I watched both episodes on Monday night. My DH and I agree that there needs to be a Law & Order cable network - it could be called L&O and just run the shows over and over and over :) Of course, we don't have cable, but we still think it'd be a great idea and they certainly have plenty of material!

Dandelion Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I love both SVU and Criminal Intent. Goren (Vincent D'Onofrio) is my FAVORITE!! I love that he's eccentric - keeps things interesting... ;) I haven't had time to watch it in about 6 months, and I haven't watched many new episodes (mainly re-runs). One thing I have noticed (as a previous poster also pointed out) is that the newer episodes are so filled with political propaganda that they've become unpleasant to watch. So, when I do watch (very occasionally these days) I'll watch a re-run... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krista in LA Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I put all of them, but SVU is my favorite because I love Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler. If you haven't seen this yet, it's a must see....Law and Order: Special Letters Unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
