SVU Season 26 Doubles Down on the Copaganda
Shows likeSVUare in a tricky place right now.
Theres a disturbing lack of accountability at play from our squad thats not only thoughtless but dangerous.
It also doesnt make much sense.

SVUSeason 26 is off to a mediocre start.
Im crossing my fingers the rest of the season proves me wrong.
New episodes ofSVUpremiere every Thursday at 9 PM ET on NBC and are available to stream on Peacock.
