What I learned from 8 seasons of Law and Order: Special Victim's Unit
For reasons that are beyond me, I watched 8 seasons of L&O:SVU over Christmas. Here is what I have learned.
That white Christian extremists are the most satisfying bad guy.
That just about everyone has a hit in codis.
That most episodes will have a 'let's dispell a fallacy' section is the form of an info dump.
That the coroner always has perfect hair.
That Jeremy Irons and Robin Williams guested in it.
That Olivia Benson will never be happy in her life. Every time someone so much as smiles as her they due for a good old fashioned smiting/killing/jailing/suiciding. Bloody hell girl get out of the job 'cos misery is all that's in the post.
That her partner Elliot finds it hard to pass an episode without at least two accusations of police brutality. Possibly that's why he gets shot about twice a season and has two emotions.
That ICE T can act, as long as he's playing a street wise thug with a limited emotion range and vocabularly.
That Munch gets all the best lines.
That the majority of perps or humps get 25 to life up in Sing Sing and nobody nice ever goes to central booking.
But most of all it hit me as I walked home through Birmingham tonight and saw an advert for a movie on the side of a bus:
WHY OH WHY WOULD ANYONE BE SO FUCKING STUPID AS TO NAME A MOVIE "DIRTY GRANDPA" !!!!!
So in the spirit of ICE-T: Gramps the Five Oh gonna bust yo skanky ass to supermax.
