Doesn't interest me. I'm not sure it's on in reruns, but I know at least some of it is available on DVD. But this is a situation where I'm a great fan of Christopher Meloni as Eliot Stabler yet I'm not particularly interested in him in any other roles.

Bought the series as soon as it became available on DVD. I loved him and Sophia Myles together--I didn't even care that it was a hetero romance! :laugh:

I think I remember that too...what a coincidence O0
--- Quote ---I disagree. I rather like it. I've come to like all the supporting characters, Lisbon, Van Pelt, Rigsby, and Cho--especially Cho and his deadpan delivery, where he seems to be channeling Det. Joe Friday from the old, old (1960s) cop show Dragnet.
But here again, we ended the season with the central character/star of the show in deep trouble, which we know he will get out of because without him there is no show.
Argh!!! Enough already!!!! :laugh:

I have no problem with the supporting characters, rather it is Simon Baker´s character I don´t like, which is a shame because I was so hyped before the series, being a big fan of The Guardian and all. But he is too smug and too much of a besserwisser and I find myself wanting to punch his nose most of the time :laugh:
I agree with many shows being too predictable and I often find myself longing for something we haven´t seen a thousand times before. But hey - keep your fingers crossed he´ll die cause they can always bring him back (Remember of Bobby Ewing on Dallas ?) :D

Interesting. That doesn't particularly bother me, I guess because I think he's supposed to be that way. I presume know-it-all is a reasonable English equivalent to besserwisser. :laugh:
