this comes from 411mania.com's article on the 5 worst TV season ever. I love these guys. ;D 2. Law & Order: Special Victims Unit Season Eight One of the weirdest things about SVU is that, among the whole Law & Order franchise (three shows), SVU has the largest regular cast, eight characters. The other shows have six (Law & Order) and three (Criminal Intent). Season eight of SVU, this past season, featured eight characters in the opening credits yet really only focussed on two of them, Stabler and Benson. Very little Munch or Finn, very little Huang, very little ADA Novak or Dr. Warner. Captain Cragen is the only other regular character who seemed to show up for more than a few minutes. I really don't understand the draw of Stabler and Benson as a show focus, because quite frankly they're both quite boring. Stabler is a loose cannon lunatic, and Benson spends most of her time whining about something or another. Who gives a crap anymore? I'm sure that season nine will continue the bullstuff with them. It's too bad Munch and Finn can't get their own show. Who the heck wouldn't want to watch Richard Belzer and Ice-T catching criminals every week? It'd be a blast. Complete article and list found HERE

I love those guys! And yeah, from what I've seen of Season 8 (we're up to the whole Liv brother thing) it really sucks. It's like 'Oh, there's Munch, there's Fin-and they're gone again!' Fly-buy acting. *sigh*

LOL..fly by..that describes it best. I think you will find as you continue to watch that this season just sucked when it came to utilizing all the Squad.

yeah some of season 7 was really quite good--a few bad eps thrown in. "Ripped", anyone? lol for some reason that's my absolute least favorite!! hehe.
but season 8 had like MAYBE 2 good eps (responsible was one...i can't think of another, but i'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt here). and i love olivia--i really do, but all of the whining did get to be too much.
i'm really hoping season 9 turns it around for them!!

I didn't hate Season 8 as much as everyone else but I agree the newer seasons were better. I am definitely looking forward to the new season.

I hated Ripped as well. I loved Raw from season 7. Blast and Storm are my most favorite eppies. Season 8 had a couple of good episodes, but nothing really super-awesome.

The last episode, the season finale, was the best of a year that just sucks. Little Fin, Munch, Warner and Huang. That should never be. Who ever heard of a police detective show that didn't have a Medical Examiner.

I have to agree with you Finaddict I loved Screwed it was the best season finale and nope I've never heard of a detective that didn't know a medical examiner and believe me I've seen plently of them. Not enough Melinda really does suck especially for us Melinda fans. I'm hoping season 9 will have a lot of Melinda, but I'm not holding my breath on that one.

I am not holding my breath either lovesmelindawarnerI loved that this show had an ensemble cast, not 1 or 2 big stars. Well since mid season 6 it's been on a downward slide from that. But I will continue to watch it and see what happens
