Loving this current storyline and loving the addition of Randall. To me, this is the best of the three L&O shows and I'm gonna be super pissed if it's not renewed.

I've never understood people who say them getting together ruined the show. It didn't. Season 4 did (except Maddie Hayes Got Married, that episode was hilarious). Season 5 wasn't so bad, except the episodes with Annie. It was just all too out of character for David to take up with her. And when Maddie witnessed the murder and David wasn't there watching over her? Totally not David Addison.

Raw and Shadow. I just love all the guest stars in both episodes. And Bang...Chris Meloni and John Stamos together? Yes please!

I loved everything up until the last five minutes. I thought that since they never confirmed this was officially the end, there would be something to leave the door open a crack, like everyone showing up at Henry's soccer game. I was disappointed there was nothing unexpected, no little flash to wow me. But the more I think about it, the more I think they did leave the door cracked. Ted's line about not being sure he made the right decision, right before Beard got off the plane. They've left the door open for Ted to regret his decision, the team not to do well, and Ted to eventually decide to visit/come home to Richmond. Or not. But I do see a window for the show to continue on. I also hated no resolution to Roy and Keeley, but again, there's hopefully more to come. I love Ted, but I love everyone else too, and would be very happy to watch more of the rest of them.

That's the way I took it too. Great finale. I'll miss this show so much.

I could've written the last paragraph of this post myself. I'm not a shipper but a huge E/O fan. I HATED tonight. It came out of left field and had nothing to do with the episode at all. I thought Olivia would call Elliot in on the case, not have him show up for a 2 minute tease. What a disappointment. Since I came back to SVU with Elliot, I haven't really enjoyed it. I wish they'd move Fin over to OC and then I'd be very happy just watching that show.

I thought it was interesting when Robin said Shatner sounded like a voice over because I thought the same thing as soon as he started singing -- that it was recorded or voiced over because it didn't sound like all the other live singers.

Did not like last week's episode, thought it was a total disappointment. I thought this was a fitting end.

The old guy was his father's former partner who he went to see a few episodes back.

I thought the implication was that Nova did it. But I was confused when Webb's wife said Nova was his daughter? Also loved seeing Cragen! And I felt bad for Ayanna when she got home and realized Denise was gone.....even though I saw that coming a mile away.

Same. Way too much time spent on that mystery family and I'm still not sure why or how it tied in with Jack, other than their accident happened the same day he died. Way too short on Miguel, and not even a mention of Kyle? Not at all what I was expecting, and quite a disappointment that it wasn't even close.

I'll keep my comments on Ken to myself but if the show doesn't want political blowback then it shouldn't cast anyone associated with politics. Simple. One would think these shows would have learned from DWTS, which has never recovered from their political casting.

I texted my friend right after that and said "The sister did it!"

I was hoping for at least a hug and a "Hey, sorry to hear about your dead wife."

That was my guess too.

This show has overused John Carroll Lynch the same way Law & Order Organized Crime has overused Dylan McDermott. Why do these shows get totally fixated on one character/actor and use them to the point the audience can't stand them?

By all accounts, Chris Meloni and Dylan McDermott have become good friends. I noticed it right away and wondered if it was ad-libbed.

When the black SUV pulled in at the end, I was expecting it to be Stabler checking up on him!

I loved the end with Liv telling him to come home before he goes too far into Eddie Wagner. I text with a friend during the show and we've been saying for weeks that Elliot is getting too wrapped up in this new persona.

Not to mention, I find it hard to believe that nobody would've seen him on TV or in a newspaper during his days with SVU or after the Wheatley case. Random dude in the diner did, so maybe the Albanians just don't watch TV or read newspapers?

The Albanian Mrs. creeps me out. I felt like I needed a shower after that ending.

And Stephanie March.

My comment about her seeming unhinged isn't related so much as to her obsession with Clinton (because I do think it was an obsession) but more for things like showing her thong in in a crowd like that. People who are lonely and insecure don't usually tend to be that bold, especially in public.

I thought this episode was much better than last week. I agree with @peridot that Monica seemed unhinged. For some reason, I always thought she was naïve. Clearly that was not the case. Linda Tripp is horrible but I predict Sarah will win another Emmy for the role. And always love to see Judith Light. Maybe this will end up holding my interest after all.

I love Sarah Paulson but I can already tell this one isn't going to pull me in the way the previous two did. I followed the OJ case and the Versace case. I didn't follow all this Lewinsky stuff at all because frankly I didn't care. I'm disappointed this is what they chose to do after two such compelling stories.
