Mariska looks amazing! Although Chris will be missed I can't wait to see Olivia back in action!
ReplyDeleteI cant wait
ReplyDeleteMariska does look great!!! And I can´t wait to see it!!
ReplyDeleteUh aren't they missing someone...in the also Starring section Tamara, she's in the episode as well.
ReplyDeleteAs much as I'm going to miss Elliot Stabler(CM),I'm excited to see this show go forward in a new direction.Showrunner Warren Leight has suggested that Stabler's disappearance has paved the way for Benson to be more open-minded in her approach to the cases they now will work more as an ensemble- just like back in the early seasons of the series.He's also suggested there will be a more direct approach to the la and order of each case,as opposed to emphasis on all the medical/forensic evidence to make each case.Can't wait til Sept 21!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited to see both Stephanie and Diane back in the same season for the first time since "Ghost" in season 6! It'll be great having Linus Roache as the new bureau chief too. Finally there will be some action on the "Order" side.
ReplyDeleteWe've just had this episode in the UK and darn, the YouTube link won't work here!
