Missy Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I have null vote because I've only seen a few episodes of SVU and CI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Keith Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 Unless this is another L&O which has nothing to do with the TV show at all, this topic belongs in the Movies and TV General Discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where it is... isn't it? It was originally posted in the Banters Forum, so I moved it with quickness here. Guess I should've posted that it was getting moved, THEN did it.

That's where it is... isn't it? Well, I messed up and started it in Banter, I guess I tend to think of the movie and tv section as mainly for comic book movies and tv.

Missy Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I didn't even notice the "moved" link the Banter section. Sorry about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Keith Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 No worries. I null voted, only times I ever catch this show is when someone elses watching and it doesn't take long for me to walk away from it. I just can't get into any of these cop shows that're on tv.

Missy Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 There's going to be another spin-off (debuting in 2005) featuring Jerry Orbach and a returning Carey Lowell (Jamie Ross), so I might have to catch that one from the start.

Fat DJ Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I'm pretty sure the original is unbeatable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James D. Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 Criminal Intent is by far and away the greatest show on television now. I seriously like it better than the original and I've watched the original (and SVU) for years. Vincent D'Onofrio is a GOD in his Sherlock Holmes-esque role. I think his character Robert Goren is the best character on any current TV show. Seriously, I'd put him up against anyone. Easy, easy choice for me. Oh, and the new spin-off will be called "Trial by Jury". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that D'Onofrio is the best actor of all 3 L&O shows, but the rest of CI comes off weak. He basically is carrying that show himself which is both good and bad. Good because it fleshes out his character, but bad because the supporting cast seems shallow. That's why I picked SVU, each character of that show is built up equally, so the show can remove a character for ahow, or choose to revolve around someone else and it won't miss a step. PLus, outside of D'Onofrio, SVU has the best actors of the L&O shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James D. Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 Criminal Intent is by far and away the greatest show on television now. I seriously like it better than the original and I've watched the original (and SVU) for years. Vincent D'Onofrio is a GOD in his Sherlock Holmes-esque role. I think his character Robert Goren is the best character on any current TV show. Seriously, I'd put him up against anyone.

PLus, outside of D'Onofrio, SVU has the best actors of the L&O shows. Detective Eames is basically Dr. Watson. Watson was never a deep character. He was the narrator of the Sherlock Holmes stories. Eames is the foil character to Goren, as Watson was to Holmes. The only police captain on any L&O show that has any real character is Dan Florek on SVU. Jamey Sheridan isn't expected to have a humongously deep character, and neither is Anita Van Buren. And ADA Carver on CI is very good, too. He's serious, but he has an edge to him that distinguishes him from Jack McCoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.Logan Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 This is like picking children, so I won't vote. I love them all equally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheap Heat Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 Criminal Intent. I love shows where they have the one guy as an unstoppable crime fighting machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
