I liked the episode; I'm glad that Fin got more involved and I wish Munch was more involved then he was. Munch should've been the one to interview Andrew about the Quack Horny Doc instead of Olivia IMO so it could be a partnership Fin-Munch episode. I know a lot of people like Fin and Olivia working together, I do, but this time around I would love to see Munch having more screen time then just a hi-and-disappear performance. As for Haung, I'm glad he had a much bigger role as well. He rarely has been on the show this season (and last season too, and the season before that, and the season before that!) other then Users being "his" episode.
I've always liked Ken. I can understand his anger towards his father of not spending time with him growing up- he had issues while Fin prefered to move on (I can also agree with Fin too). I do think Fin is still having difficulty accepting 100% about Ken's sexuality but he's getting there, he didn't disown him or anything. As for Ken, not sure if he let bygones be bygones about Fin's absence from his life but he must have been somehow affected by his father's line of work in SVU after Outsider when he tried helping a friend talk about her rape that Ken decided to be a counselor to help runaway kids get their life in order.
So much for having straight new SVU epsodes. Next week is a repeat (Unstable) so gotta wait two weeks. Who said we were going to have all new SVU episodes from March till May? Was it Neal? I suppose I should take out my pitchfork again for his big nose that's getting bigger and bigger...like Pinocchio's.
That ADA...wasn't that the same actress that was in Hothouse? Except in Hothouse she was the New Jersey ADA

I like any Fin centred episodes but this one was a bit...boring. I don't know, it just didn't have that 'thing' to hold my attention.
I like how they used Ken more in this episode too. He's a good kid and his heart is in the right place which can sometimes get him into trouble.
But over all, it was boring.

Except in Hothouse she was the New Jersey ADA Yep, that was her. Gretchen Egolf. It was Neal who said that we would have continuous new episodes until the finale. Now I wonder if the finale date will be changed or if we will get 2 episodes on one date. Neal doesn't have the final say on when episodes air so NBC is up to their usual shenanigans.

I am still trying to find the time to watch this epi. The loss of my kitty Sparky has thrown me for complete loop.

Almost a year ago I lost my own kitty (I had two, now one) and it was a very sad time for me. My prayers are with you. I believe Conned will be re-airing soon on USA, I'm sure ram will post the repeats (if she hadn't already) so you would know when it'll be on. Take care

Take care CONNED will be re-airing at 7PM on April 20th during the marathon on USA. NBC hasn't posted a listing for it yet on the usual Saturday night repeats. They are airing SUGAR on April 17th & SOLITARY on April 24th.

I think they should've given Ken's charachter more...depth. Not exploit his homosexuality, but put it up there as a REAL factor. I mean, look at the running theme of the show. They're not dancing around the hard issuses, but with Ken it's "yea, he's gay, yea, he & Fin had a hard time, OK, next scene". Oh, I don't know.

I agree they could explore Ken a little more but the emphasis has always been on the love/hate relationship that Ken and Fin have had since Ken was a kid.
