Law and Order: SVU: Zebras (season finale) - open thread

by Bob Sassone, posted Jun 3rd 2009 8:00AM
Law and Order: SVUWow, I gotta say that this was a great season finale. I wasn't really familiar with Stuckey, but what happened still shocked me (though I guessed what was going on halfway through). It was rather Bones-ian, in a way.

This could turn out to be the last episode of Law and Order: SVU for Christopher Meloni and Mariska Hargitay, since they are holding out for more money and NBC is thinking of replacing them. Of course, I don't think that's going to happen. Sure, all of the Law and Order shows have had many cast members over the years, but I'm betting that the duo will be back for another season.

Is there any way to find out when the season finale for Law & Order SVU is going to be repeated as my DVR failed to tape it?

I thought the ep was a great close to a weird season. Stuckey was oddly placed from the beginning ... were they planning his breakdown from the beginning, or was like Nicki & Paulo (from Lost) -- he was abruptly removed because the fans hated him? I don't remember seeing Tamara Tunie in a long time, and was a little disappointed that she didn't make an appearance in the season finale. This season's new ADA, played by Michaela McManus seems to have disappeared as well.

I thought it was a very good episode and a far better season finale than last year's. I really hope they bring the other characters more into the forefront next season. They were doing that for a while a few seasons back with each character getting their own headlineing episodes. There needs to be much more Detective Munch! Belz is great.

My TiVo marked this episode as repeated and did not record it. With no announcements from NBC how are they expecting anyone to follow it.

At least Stuckey has his old job to fall back on:

I don't know. In one of the crossover episodes, didn't Munch discover that Lennie Briscoe had dated/slept with Gwen, causing the initial hostility between him and Lennie? That would put Gwen in New York.

I guess I'm in the minority, I thought the season finale was terrible.

Between the laughable chasing the suspect through the thrill park ride and the not believable in the slightest final act, I though this was the jump-the-shark episode.

I thought it was pretty bad too. I just watched it tonight on DVR. I don't understand the hype in this post and the other one on Belzer.

You are correct. It was truly Bizarre. I wish they would team up Dr. Wong and Ice T.

Wow. First time I saw SVU in a few years because there was nothing else on. How far this show has fallen. When did it turn into CSI? It was horrible. The whole bit at the end where Olivia had to trick the quasi-albino guy by being angry at Stabler and making out with the guy was just too over the top to be taken seriously. If Meloni and Hargitay were smart, they would leave the show now before it gets worse.

I am actually hoping that in the fall, SVU becomes the Ice-T and Belzer Show - (1) at 9 p.m. it won't be able to be the same show anyway, and (2) Hargitay and Meloni have had 10 full seasons as the leads, and their characters are just about played out. When I watch the show, it certainly isn't because of them.
