Rage On

Note to the striking writers of SVU: when you return to work, can we move past Elliot Stabler’s rage issues? We keep having episodes that address his rage. Yeah, we get it – he’s angry and conflicted. He has a hard job. He’s Catholic. Deal with it. L&O works best when the character’s back stories and traits are left vague and unexplored. Elliot’s angry, Munch is sarcastic, Olivia is lonely, blah blah. We know – that’s why we love them. Now let’s get back to solving crimes.
