Law and Order Special Victims Unit: S17E18 Sheltered Outcasts Review

Sheltered Outcasts was released on March 30, 2016. This episode was decent enough, and it had a good line of suspense. A quick recap of this episode, Detective Carisi is deep undercover in a homeless shelter, where known sexual assailants are housed. The investigation into the shelter is triggered by a serial rapist the detectives need to catch. Detective Carisi was roughed up by some men in the shelter, but survived. The man of suspicion is Richie Caskey, a man who Detective Carisi thinks is a good man. In a shocking turn of events, it turns out the rapist is Caskey's lawyer, and that was figured out after the shelter's therapist was raped and murdered, and another victim IDs his voice while standing in the middle of the squad room with Olivia. This episode was a good episode, I didn't see much of Dodds Jr. so I'm not sure what is going on there. It was great to see Lieutenant Benson back in action, after being transferred because of a sex trafficking ring that her boyfriend Tucker(from IAB) was involved in. Also, a weird blast from the past, Gregory Searle returned, a psychopathic killer from Season 9, episode 2, Avatar, which could qualify as one of the creepiest episodes I've ever seen.
Tell me in the comments below what you thought of this episode, did you find it good, and did you like the twist at the end with the lawyer being the suspect? Let me know. Law and Order SVU is going on hiatus, and I am not sure when it is coming back, but look out for a review when the next episode comes out.

Grey's Anatomy Season 13 "Don't Stop Me Now" Review

Image
So last week's episode of Grey's Anatomy was our first one back since Meredith and Nathan officially became a "thing" after their experience on the plane. I was eager to see how they would play Maggie, given her previous liking of Riggs and how he turned her down. This episode was unfortunately very predictable, which I don't really like when it comes to shows, I enjoy suspense. This episode opens with Meredith in front of a mirror rehearsing what she's going to say to Maggie about her and Nathan, with Alex getting ready to leave around her while being forced to listen to the role play. They finally decide on one in the hospital bathroom, but the plan is foiled when Maggie figures out the newest couple at the press conference that was being held to honor the achievements of what happened on the plane. She's annoyed, hurt and angry as we expected, moving from ignoring, to rudeness, to tears. Maggie finally seems to forgive her at the end, when she agrees ...

Law and Order: SVU S17E11

Townhouse Incident aired on NBC January 13, 2016.  This episode could quite possibly qualify as one of the worst SVU episodes that I've ever seen. A quick background of this episode; Olivia's regular babysitter Lucy, is having a problem with her family, and was complaining to Olivia. Being the good person that she is, she heads for the townhouse, only to be taken hostage along with two children and their mom. This is evidently traumatizing to her, as she wasn't able to stop the sixteen year old girl from being raped by Joe, one of the hostage takers. In the end, the snipers take out Joe as he exits the townhouse with the intent of running off with Benson. It gets one out of five stars from me, and here's why.  The producers of SVU are overplaying the "Olivia Benson in trouble" and my guess is that they are responding to the rave reviews that they received out of the William Lewis season, where Benson is taken hostage twice in season fifteen. This episode also ...
