Wow. It is great that Benson gets promoted. I think she does an excelent job. When a person works that good it is a great feeling when they get promoted on a position so they grant her efforts and sacrifices. I think Jenniffer would do on the position. But I deffinetly want to see that coming. I would never want to stop seeing Benson on the scenes she as a buss its awsom.

I don't think they are going to use JLH as Olivia... they said Olivia gets promoted so JLH will be a NEW character not taking over someone else's character. come on people think about it!!

Well I think Jennifer should join it would be an lovely addition. To the show

Uhhh hello I would enjoy having Jennifer on the show

Calm down guys. What if they plan on adding Hewitt as a NEW detective? Not Olivia's replacement? This whole thing isn't set in stone and I highly doubt they would even attempt to REPLACE Hargitay, after all the seasons she has played the role. Instead of complaining and threatening to not watch the show if Hewitt is added to the cast, JUST DON'T WATCH IT. Think of it this way: if Hewitt is added as Vicki Sayers as a detective, this could add to the plot of the show. It would be the first time the show would've added a former victim as a new detective to help other SVU victims. See? Completely different senario. Detectives Benson and Stabler take a break from SVU, and former victim helps the helpless. I've seen every episode, and followed the show from the beginning; and while Hewitt most likely isn't going to be the kick-ass cop Hargitay was, I think I would enjoy having a senario such as this play out. LONG STORY SHORT: If you don't like it, don't watch it.

Im done its not worth it if they add jennifer love hewitt.....its a disgrace. I think its just time to end SVU at this point.

Please, please, please do not replace Mariska Hargity with that piece of "fluff" Hewitt. There must be actresses out there with some substance to them who will fit the roll better. Someone like Ashley Judd, or that type. I don't see Hewitt as a tough street cop type. This show will be in it's death throes soon enough with out Elliot anyways. The play between Elliot and Olivia was what the whole show ran on. Some characters can be replaced, but SVU without Elliot and Olivia, Criminal Intent without Gorham and Eames, CSI without Grisholm. All death rattles.

i want mariska not her ughh she is way better at being oliva benson

I'll stop watching if they get Hewitt - she stinks as an actress and totally is not right for the part. They should get someone like Christina Cox (Blood Ties), Emily Procter or Eva La Rue (CSI/Miami) to replace Mariska. As far as replacing Meloni-- Adam Rodriguez (CSI/Miami) would make a great replacement or Alex O'Loughlin (Moonlight) or Michael Weatherly (Dark Angel/NCIS).
I would continue watching then.

Noooo! I grew up with Oliva and Eliott :-(. SUV is my favorite law and order and it will never be the same w/ J LH. Team Stabler and Benson!!
