Law and Order SVU

Excerpt:
So, who would stand by her husband when he’s accused of being a serial rapist?

Actress Gayatri Bahl was brought in to do exactly that in last night’s “Decaying Morality” episode of LAW & ORDER: SVU.

I had a chance to catch up with Gayatri Bahl to find out more about her experience working on the show.


What can you tell us about your role in “Law & Order: SVU”?

GAYATRI: I play the wife of the prominent dentist, Dr. Neil Alexander, played by Paul Adelstein ("Scandal," "Private Practice"), who gets caught up...

Excerpt:
Warning - gets kind of personal, maybe not a fun read. I'd have emailed it directly to any of the show's writers if I could have found the contact info.

I watch the show, not on a regular basis, but when I do with a religious intensity. It's a kind of catharsis for me, as an in-the-closet survivor, to see people surviving, being honored, being supported and the detectives fighting for them. So it's a very personal experience, almost a therapy, and even though I know it's just a TV show I take it very personally.

Chapter One

Hour Twenty-Four

Part 1.

Olivia had known something was up. When she entered her apartment, she had that feeling—the one where the creepy-crawlies made every hair stand on end—on her arms, on the back of her neck. Ignoring it would cost her dearly, and she would never forgive herself after this. She knew that, once her own gun was pointing towards her head, and that sick fuck Lewis was at the other end.

Part 2.

Excerpt:
Olivia runs into the office searching wildly for Elliot with a look that could kill. Storming in she notices that the offices remains empty, as if everyone has done home for the night, but then she notices Elliot sitting at his desk sorting through paperwork concerning todays case.

"Elliot!" yells Olivia as she starts throwing papers off of his desk to get his attention. "How dare you try and take that bullet for me today?! You had no right risking your life for me. You have a wife and a family! You have to start thinking more clearly!"

Part I—The Assault
There she was, sitting at her desk…with his gun. What the heck was I thinking, leaving her alone like this? he asked himself.
    “Liv. Liv what are you doing?” A huge pit opened up in his stomach, while each hair on his head stood at attention. She raised the gun to her head.

    Just one month ago, Olivia Benson had a regular life--as regular as it could be for a detective who investigated rape cases. While other cops in her department came and went, burning out due to the egregious nature of...

Excerpt:
It was 9:30 pm at the 1-6 and Donald Cragen was p.o.'d. Washington wanted two of his best Detectives to go undercover for a year at least.
He stormed into his precinct and saw Benson and Stabler working at their desks. "Benson, Stabler my office NOW!"
He walked into his office followed by his to lead detectives.
Benson spoke up first. "Captain, did we do something wrong?"
"No, the bosses at Washington want you two to go undercover for awhile."
Elliot spoke up. “Captain I can't do that. My divorce is being finalized and I need to be at that end...

If fans wrote a season of SVU, here’s what would happen:

by mhfan11794:
- Olivia would get shot, kidnapped or tortured (or any combination of the three).

- EO hookups every episode and confessing their love on a stakeout.

- Kathy would die.

- Munch would make an appearance.

- Find out what happened to Simon (You know, Liv’s family?).

- Olivia would get custody of Calvin.

Excerpt:
I’ve always loved TV crime shows – the drama! the issues! the tear-jerking speeches! Law & Order was part of what inspired me to go to law school and become a prosecutor. What a mistake that was!

Don’t get me wrong, I love being a prosecutor. I specialize in fighting sex crimes, and it’s a fascinating and rewarding job. But now when I relax in front of the TV, only half my mind is enjoying the story. The other half wants to stand up and shout, “Objection!”

Because, face it, no real woman prosecutor would wear the shoes that the ADA does on SVU....
