That being said, this was one of the worst episodes of L&O I've ever seen. What the fuck was it about? Almost nothing about the actual case was explored, and the entire episode hung on a very boring cross-examination of Morales! Granted, Ive been watching a lot of SVU lately, which is a very different show.<br /><br />That being said, I'm going to go back to LA ep. 1 and see if I can get into it.<br /><br />I am curious, though, if anyone else had a problem with the structure of the episode.xtheseusxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00876594736523028396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4706282221761427996.post-42460654415511446972011-04-21T19:57:03.054-07:002011-04-21T19:57:03.054-07:00Get to the point.

Agreed.<br /><br />I remember once upon a time being an 11-year-old kid writing stories in my free time and starting every scene at exactly the starting point. Sally had to open the door into the house, go up stairs, put down her book bag before finally, the damn point of the scene came out. <br /><br />And I was bored writing it. I didn't get it then till I realized, why not just start with Sally in her room already talking to her friend on the phone?<br /><br />Excellent choice with Law & Order. That show moves fast, every scene is important, and there's no wasted moment.Carlos Matthews Hernandezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04844149114686947104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4706282221761427996.post-91024606585648086752011-04-21T06:41:20.180-07:002011-04-21T06:41:20.180-07:00Funny, since I hadn't seen this since the firs...Funny, since I hadn't seen this since the first few eps (totally missed Skeet punching a ticket) and happened to catch this very episode by chance and completely agree (I even facebooked it) it was pretty top notch and very much in spirit of the original flagship, a show I loved and should not have been cancelled. <br /><br />I'll probably keep watching if they can keep this up ... one thing I loved about the original is that they took real life headlines and made them stories, as this episode did (inspired by the town that was overpaying it's mayor, etc). <br /><br />And it moved, very fast, too fast even to really get ahead of it, which is important.Joshua Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08239067667651048280noreply@blogger.com
