Having a hard time watching this season for two reasons: 1. Every episode involves Mariska Hargitay’s character Lt. Benson. Yes, we get that you are in charge of the unit now and you have a child but does it need to be involved in every single episode? It’s overdone and makes me long for previous seasons when other characters lives were incorporated, and 2. The blatant left-wing view has become extreme. In previous seasons this show has tended to lean left but it’s political agenda has become more than obvious this season. I think I’ll go back and watch seasons when it was still good. I made it to episode 13 and that’s enough.
