(See: That name’s funny to me because Benson is “ben” - son in Hebrew - plus “son,” and Batdaughter combines “bat” - daughter in Hebrew - with “daughter.” And, of course, “liv” gets replaced with “die” for…Well.

It’s not about just not getting anywhere (after over two decades), or just not following through on anything, or just having the Generic Odieia Batdaughter character come out of nowhere to be…whatever she is. Texts and emails? Also out of the question.īut the reason this is like “wtf do I even do with this episode” isn’t just any one of these things. (See also: “one true love of his life” clownery.) Phone calls are an impossibility, even if one-sided. Under absolutely no circumstances will there be sufficient budget or scheduling ability for the discussions about the very bad things that happened to our former partner. Invitation to a Christmas get-together? Not happening.Īnd no, we can’t ever, in any situation, take time out for a conversation. A whole speech by a super villain about “the one true love of his life,” abandoned. “I love you” blurted out in the middle of an intervention never gets addressed. What’s truly just hilarious is how much setup there is with about zero payoff. Old enough to have graduated from college, might even have obtained a Master’s by now. I’m talking about a fanbase that has followed that duo for so long, an infant born the day many started being strung along would be old enough to drink. No, I’m talking about one of the best on-screen duos of all time being wasted. And I’m not talking about just this one story - that’s just a low-level generic. What I will waste the time and effort on, yet again, is dissecting just how laughable this all is. And, frankly, I’m not wasting the time or effort. In order to accurately describe just how awful of an Olivia Benson knockoff this woman is, I’d have to explain over a decade worth of inside jokes with my best friend. Of course, this is all about the absolute mess that is Elliot Stabler’s latest inconsistent, messy reveal: the Tia thing. But evidently, that mind should’ve stayed closed.” It’s the epitome of “I went in with an open mind and ignored promo meant to rile people up. Law & Order: Organized Crime3×07 “All That Glitters” is a glittering example of what happens when bad faith happens to good viewers.
