Any fans here?


Anyone else a fan of the show?

No, not me anyway. Why would anyone want to watch a series that deals with crimes of a sexual nature??? Yuk!

It wasn’t too “yucky” for you to post on the board of such a series. Just saying.

I was just answering the OP's question if there were any fans of this show. I watched one episode and that was it!

I had the same opinion when the show first debuted, and it was literally about a decade later when I started to watch reruns. At first I thought it was sick to create abuse scenarios as a kind of entertainment, but the simple drama of watching these people work while discovering perpetrators and establishing guilt won me over.
I still question the place in popular culture for all these depictions of abominable behavior, but I've come to appreciate the storytelling and drama created on SVU. It's kind of like watching Silence Of The Lambs or Don't Breathe. I think they are well done enough to be worth taking the time, but I don't begrudge anyone avoiding the grisly aspects of this sort of thing.
