4.0 out of 5 stars Finally back on track May 25, 2013
Format:Amazon Instant Video|Amazon Verified Purchase
SVU had been a great show for a while (from the 3rd season onwards). But for the last few seasons, it seemed to have lost its way: focusing on the soap operas of Elliott and his marriage and Olivia and her desire to be a parent; increasing unbelievability of story lines (the "Dale Stuckey Crime Genius" anyone?); the sympathy of the detectives for the criminals; and the lack of rotation in the unit (we keep hearing that "the average stay in SVU is 2 years" but they've been there for 10+ and yet none of them are depressed, psychotic, or disturbed?? please!).

However, with the new additions to the cast, and a return to "crime-focused stories", it seems to have re-envigorated the show, one of the best on tv. Hope it keeps it up. (Though, I do wish they would go back to some more believable story-lines again).
