I should do better on that so I don't miss the interesting conversations.<br /><br />Ratings up for SVU against new episodes of CSI and Revenge bodes real well for SVU. This is a great sign.

There is a correlation but not causation. That said, I also scratched my head when I read that having a court room scene decreases viewership. I didn't really buy that but then again, I like the trials so I'm biased.<br /><br />Does DickConnorBehanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05166823917005774681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2412211079606886638.post-31644864999934109082012-05-04T07:46:42.948-04:002012-05-04T07:46:42.948-04:00I have mixed feelings about Father Dearest.

On one hand I found it a pretty predictable storyline,and also questioned why SVU team would be called in so quickly.There was a strong 'ewww'factor for me when I realized that it involved father-daughter 'relations',if you will.Nice to Dr. Huang back on board, even briefly.

The little boy's 911 call would have been responded to by patrol officers and EMTs. After that, SVU detectives are also not going to search for missing people, and especially not without a sex crime involved.
