Ripped from the headlines of 2009, a Chris Brown and Rihanna plot line will finally appear on Law & Order: SVU. And I say finally not because this is something we've all been hoping for, but because I can't believe they had the self control to wait a full four years.
A lot of people have asked themselves why Law & Order: SVU — a show primarily about victims' advocacy — would cast known convicted rapist Mike Tyson on their program, but, now, thanks to these previews for tomorrow's episode, we finally have an answer. It's because he's such a good actor. Okay, Dick Wolf. CHUNG CHUNG…
You know the moment. You're about halfway through an episode of L & O and it hits you — I've totally seen this before! Rooney Mara beat up fat people because she USED TO BE FAT! Duh! Makes so much sense, especially now that I've seen the episode 50 times. Case closed, bitches!
When a show has been on as long as the Law & Order franchise has (Law & Order: OG has been on since 1990) it makes sense to assume that a fair share of actors would have trod their dusty precinct boards, but do you have any idea just how many of the L & O victims, suspects and defense lawyers have gone on to have…
Hey, ladies. Can we gab for a second? Lady-style? Because I have a real serious question. What IS IT with us and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit? Like, I absolutely hate horror movies (because NO), but I, and a lot of other women I know, will watch an SVU marathon for literally days. Literally. Days. So, why? What?…
What's even more delicious than watching the cast of Law & Order solve crimes and deliver justice? Watching them eat their lunch while they work on cases, of course. Thankfully Law & Order & Food exists and has helpfully collected images of Jerry Orbach, Sam Waterston, S. Epatha Merkerson, Benjamin Bratt, Chris Noth,…
The Law & Order franchises are famous for recycling actors: One episode's stripper is the next episode's ADA. But no one individual — save for series regulars or semi-regulars — has been more prevalent in the series as actress Teresa Yenque. She has appeared in seven episodes of Law & Order and Law & Order: SVU — as…
Today in DSK: a face-to-face meeting between the ex-IMF chief and his French accuser could be in the offing, and she says she's ready to sue. Also, Law & Order: SVU offered its version of the case last night.
Do you find you have $700 more than you need and a million hours of your life you'd really like to burn through? Why not pick up the 104-disc 20-season box set of Law & Order?
Recently attorney Bryan Erman of Dallas requested to postpone a civil trial over a stock transaction because the proceeding would take place in Kansas City two weeks before his wife is scheduled go give birth. After a lawyer for the plaintiffs objected, Judge Eric F. Melgren granted the continuance, and issued an…
If you want to try something interesting, watch Law and Order: Special Victims Unit non-chronologically. It can be quite eye-opening. My boyfriend and I needed a predictable, non-committal show to get us through our December doldrums. With Angel and Veronica Mars behind us, and the wonders of Skins yet to be…
It took 13 years for law enforcement to properly investigate Helena Lazaro's brutal rape. It took far less than that for Law & Order: SVU to base an episode on her story; it airs Sept. 29, Lazaro tells us.

According to a sneak peek, Kathy Griffin's upcoming guest spot on Law & Order: SVU involves hitting on Mariska Hargitay's Olivia Benson. And Olivia, sadly, is having none of it.
