L&O is probably one of the only programs on the air that I have never seen an episode of. I don't know why -- I guess I never got around to it.

― Nicole (Nicole), Friday, 11 July 2003 17:30 (twenty years ago) link

L+O makes me so happy. Somewhere on the web there is an outdated(Moriarty-era) drinking game that can lead to very entertaining reruns.

I HATE THIS SHOW AND ALL OF ITS ILK WITH A BURNING PASSION. BURNING! PASSION! I HATE THE HANDHELD CAMERAWORK (OH THIS IS JUST A SNATCH OF REAL LIFE WHOOPS THERE GOES THE CAMERA OH GOT IT BACK AGAIN HAHA) COUPLED WITH THE MANNERED "REALISTIC" DIALOGUE AND THE WOULD-BE WORLD-WEARY APPROACH TO VIOLENCE LIKE OH HERE'S A DEAD BODY QUICK PAN DOWN TO IT OH MAN WE'VE SEEN THIS A MILLION TIMES LET'S GET SOME COFFEE AND QUIZ THE WAITRESS ON WHAT SHE SAW IN THIS LABORED INTENSE CLIPPED BULLSHIT HARDASS SPEAK. FUCK THIS SHOW.

You're thinking of NYPD Blue.

― s1utsky (slutsky), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:29 (twenty years ago) link

I think I hate Fred Thompson. In brief appearances where he wraps things up, not so bad, but that one episode where he actually got out of the office and did some lawyering had me angry.

― Leee (Leee), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:29 (twenty years ago) link

ALSO THOSE TRANSITIONS. "D.A.'S OFFICE, 10 A.M." COUPLED WITH THAT REMORSELESS "CLUMP" THAT SOUNDS LIKE A JUDGE'S GAVEL. "OH WE'RE GONNA BE REAL STRAIGHT AND TO THE POINT NOOOO BULLSHIT IN LAW & ORDER NO SIR." WHEN IT FACT IT IS TOTAL F'IN BULLSHIT. I HATE TV BUT "THE PRACTICE" IS TEN TIMES BETTER THAN THIS SHIT AT LEAST IT HAS INVENTIVE PLOTLINES SOME TIMES.

NO S1UTSKY I AM THINKING OF MF'ING LAW&ORDER WITH THAT ONE ACTOR, THE OLD WHITE GUY. HE! MUST! BE STOPPED!

― amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:30 (twenty years ago) link

"The Practice" was one of the worst shows on television. Whoever thought the idea of a po-faced "Ally McBeal" was a good idea should be homeless.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:32 (twenty years ago) link

I HATE THE WAY YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO FEEL SO FUCKING STREETSMART AND DESENSITIZED BECAUSE EVERYONE ON THE SHOW IS SO FUCKING COOL AND COLLECTED EXCEPT THE WITNESSES AND SURVIVORS AND SUSPECTS WHO ARE ALWAYS FREAKING OUT BUT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO IDENTIFY WITH THE COOL SO F'ING PROFESSIONAL AND COMPETENT COPS WHEN IN REALITY IT IS JUST MANIPULATIVE CHICKENSHIT RACIST MELODRAMA.

― amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:32 (twenty years ago) link

arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggghhhhh

(sputters, dies)

will the real slim shady please stand up?

― James Blount (James Blount), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:33 (twenty years ago) link

ie. stop biting trife's style

― James Blount (James Blount), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:33 (twenty years ago) link

"racist"???

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:33 (twenty years ago) link

and anyone who's ever a seen more than two episodes of any David Kelley show ever would know there is nothing inventive about The Practice's storylines

― James Blount (James Blount), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:34 (twenty years ago) link

that said, gimme Homicide and The Wire over Law & Order easy

― James Blount (James Blount), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:35 (twenty years ago) link

ok that was uncalled for. they often seem to, within network tv's pc dictates, code blacks in certain ways--more emotional, effusive...the good mama wanting the best for her gangbanger son. actually the racial stereotype are no more offensive than the overall puerility of this ass show.

granted i haven't watched for the 10 seconds of it for years and years because it completely turns my stomach within a split second.... it's like the tv equivalent of jethro tull.

― amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:35 (twenty years ago) link

more than 10 seconds. my hatred is impeding my typing skills.

― amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:36 (twenty years ago) link

Rip on "Law & Order" all you want, but turning around and claiming that "The Practice" is better strikes me as lecturing someone on how unhealthy Big Macs are while drinking a diarrhea latte.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:37 (twenty years ago) link

yeah it's "jerry orbach"--he epitomizes a certain style that i would like to wipe off the face of the earth.

actually i'm talking out of my ass as i saw two episodes of "the practice" and thought they were clever. actually the visual style of that show is pretty annoying too, all burnished reds and browns and soft focus and tight close ups.

but the faux-verite style of L&O MUST DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE...

― amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:39 (twenty years ago) link

haha Dan is OTM David Kelly should definitely be homeless.

amateurist, it's an ENGINE; I never really feel anything about the situations except to watch how the next cog moves into place.

― g--ff c-nn-n (gcannon), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:40 (twenty years ago) link

Am, I love you.

"OH MY GOD THIS IS THE WORST THING EVER COMPARED TO THAT (okay I have seen this in years and I only stumbled across that once, but still THIS MUST DIE KIL KIL KILKILLKILL REDRUM)!"

(argh "have" = "haven't"

i actually feel like i'm from another planet when i express hatred for this show. much like my hatred for "seinfeld." i'm usually pretty open-minded but my reaction to these shows is extremely visceral, i will leave a room/house/party to avoid watching them.

i admit the mechanations of the plots can be clever but i'd rather just look at an equation on a page than sit through a million wobbly dips and swooops of that camera as one after another "realistic" scene is played out with victims wailing and actors playing cops trying on one after another cynical expressions.

― amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:42 (twenty years ago) link

when this show comes on i feel like a dog forced to listen to some punky toddler blowing endlessly on a tin whistle.

― amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:43 (twenty years ago) link

At least James Spader will be on it!! I will watch James Spaeder in any old crappy show.

― Nicole (Nicole), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:47 (twenty years ago) link

as for other cop shows HOMICIDE was OK but all of these shows strike me as pornography by other means.

― amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 11 July 2003 20:49 (twenty years ago) link

but Dan david kelly gave us Charmed!!!

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Friday, 11 July 2003 21:00 (twenty years ago) link

He did??????????????

― Nicole (Nicole), Friday, 11 July 2003 21:01 (twenty years ago) link

The existence of "Charmed" does not mitigate the existence of "The Practice".

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 11 July 2003 21:09 (twenty years ago) link

"we got dissed"

― s1utsky (slutsky), Friday, 11 July 2003 21:11 (twenty years ago) link

"make a deal"

― s1utsky (slutsky), Friday, 11 July 2003 21:12 (twenty years ago) link

I sympathize with amateurist here, though I can't say I've ever watched more than a few minutes of any of these. I'm probably being unfair, but cop shows just bore me to death in general.

― Justyn Dillingham (Justyn Dillingham), Friday, 11 July 2003 21:44 (twenty years ago) link

He did??????????????

At last we know her favorite show! That Buffy thing was all a cover.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 11 July 2003 21:54 (twenty years ago) link

I have watched maybe 2 episodes of this show, the thing is it seems v. different from the usual Kelley forumula.

― Nicole (Nicole), Friday, 11 July 2003 22:01 (twenty years ago) link

name a show on television that isn't 'pornography by other means'

― James Blount (James Blount), Friday, 11 July 2003 22:04 (twenty years ago) link

That John McLaughlin show...though I supposed it's Washington elite smarm porn.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 11 July 2003 22:05 (twenty years ago) link

it's totally porn!

― James Blount (James Blount), Friday, 11 July 2003 22:06 (twenty years ago) link

L & E disturbs me because it is so prosecution-slanted. Almost all of the criminal defense lawyers are sleazeballs. I used to watch it when I was studying for my Criminal Procedure class to see where they screwed up Fourth & Fifth Amendment issues. Generally, they got it right, but there were a few real howlers.

― J (Jay), Friday, 11 July 2003 22:14 (twenty years ago) link

L& E - is this a Law and Order spinoff I'm not familiar with?

― James Blount (James Blount), Friday, 11 July 2003 22:15 (twenty years ago) link

first comes the law part. then comes the eating part.

that would be the best show ever!

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Saturday, 12 July 2003 01:35 (twenty years ago) link

first comes the law part. then comes the eating part.

Sterling encapsulates my life in two sentences. I will now commit suicide.

― J (Jay), Saturday, 12 July 2003 01:56 (twenty years ago) link

I love how I go away for one day and their are 80 new answers on the L&O thread. (which I opened while watching SVU. And fucking D'Onfrio.)

― That Girl (thatgirl), Saturday, 12 July 2003 01:57 (twenty years ago) link

That better an adjective and not a verb!
