Season Finale

Warning: Spoilers
The Season 24 finale. That just seems wild to write in this day and age, but the show feels as fresh as ever right now and can definitely go on for a few more years.

I have no issue with the crossovers, especially with the Benson and Stabler dynamic they make sense, but I also feel like fans of each show should get an ending. If you watch SVU and don't watch Organized Crime you didn't get any kind of wrap up to the story, just some Benson and Stabler drama.

I like the urgency of chasing down the ring, but I highly doubt in NYC they would try to prove a point about being forceful with arrests; more like the opposite.

Won't be watching

As a huge fan of SVU I don't mind the cross over episodes. Especially with the Chicago franchise. However I really don't like the Organised Crime show. I loved Stabler when he was in SVU. But he left. Why keep bringing him back?

It feels like the powers that be are using SVU to prop up OC.

Far too many times have there been crossover episodes. As I don't watch OC I miss out on continuing plot lines.

I feel cheated out of the last episode of this season, as its a 4 episode crossover. So I don't get to say goodbye to beloved characters for another season.

If the do have to keep inserting OC storylines into SVU. Please do it mid season. That way those non OC watchers don't miss out on the finale of our favourite show.

A good episode to end in pain

When there is a good show and it has spin offs, it can be good to do crossover episodes to elevate the show and give a longer run for a bigger story. Crossover episodes becoming an issue when it happens more than once a season and they are not labeled as part one or two just like this episode was. By doing this, it makes it confusing for reability and trying to figure out where the following episode is for the rest of the story. Another example of how this is done poorly is The Rookie, an amazing show that spawned a spin off But had over four crossover events, forcing people to watch the new show, which is now but canceled. If order continues to do this, it will hurt viewership, and anyone new to following the series.
