My recap and review of Law & Order SVU "Justice Denied" can be found at this link.
Law & Order SVU “Justice Denied” Air Date April 11, 2012 (10 PM ET/9C Wednesday NBC)
ONE OF BENSON’S (MARISKA HARGITAY) SOLVED CASES IS REOPENED, AND THE SUBSEQUENT LEGAL BATTLE CAUSES FRICTION BETWEEN EXECUTIVE ADA DAVID HADEN (GUEST STAR HARRY CONNICK HR.), BAYARD ELLIS (ANDRE BRAUGHER) AND BENSON. MARKS CONSUELOS ALSO GUEST STARS.
A rape victim is brought to the hospital after a harrowing hours-long ordeal, and Benson (Hargitay) recognizes the suspect’s M.O. from a case she solved eight years ago. The jailed rapist confessed to Benson after a tough interrogation but has been claiming his innocence ever since his conviction. The SVU squad is forced to reopen Benson’s old case to determine if they are dealing with a copycat or a case of wrongful imprisonment. As Benson’s detective work is challenged, her personal relationship with Executive ADA Haden (Connick) is also placed in jeopardy when Counselor Bayard Ellis (Braugher) gets involved. Also starring Ice-T (Detective Odafin Tutuola), Dann Florek (Captain Donald Cragen), Danny Pino (Detective Nick Amaro) and Kelli Giddish (Detective Amanda Rollins.)

Something tells me that Ellis will poke his nose into something that is none of his business and ruin Olivia's relationship with David.
ReplyDeleteI hope that doesn't happen, but I heard that David will be in more episodes. Perhaps it the relationship will be fine.
Where did you hear that? I haven't seen anything stating he will be on more episodes. I hope you're right though. I really like him and his relationship with Olivia.
ReplyDeleteWarren Leight tweeted that awhile ago.
ReplyDeleteAre you sure? Because I haven't seen that tweet. But I did see the tweet where somebody asked if HCJ will be back for more episodes and WL said we shall see so I don't think it's a sure thing yet.
ReplyDeleteI like it when there's continuity on SVU,something only WL seems to be aware of. I know WL has tweeted that HCJr may be back in future episodes- it wasn't written in stone that EADA David Haden was only on board for 4 original episodes.I suppose it depends on HCJr's work schedule and whether there will be a renewal of S14.Fingers crossed..
ReplyDeleteMariska said that she'll be back for Season 14. An NBC exec said that they will renew it, and the excutive producer Warren Leight said he wants to another season.
ReplyDeleteIt's not on the bubble list, NBC can't afford to lose this show.
While all those people have made comments about SVU coming back for another season, the show has not been officially renewed. I for one will not believe it will be renewed until I see the official schedule from NBC for the next season with the official press release that SVU has been renewed. Law & Order fans were told by NBC execs in the past that Law & Order would get a 21st season...and we all know that when the time came to make if official, it didn't happen.
ReplyDeleteNBC would be nuts NOT to review SVU, it's one of the highest rated shows they have. But, NBC has not always done the sane thing, have they?
Does anyone know which episode from 2004 dealt with the old case that's reopened in this episode?
ReplyDeleteLaura, I'm trying to figure that out. There's a part of it that is shown in this episode, and I recognized it. I'm scrounging right now for the episode name and summary, but I've come up with nothing. It's out there, though.
ReplyDeleteLaura the clip at the begining is from season 6 quarry rigth at the start. Olivia has just finsished the interview but we dont see it
