I don't normally do this, but tonight I've got to comment on tonight's episode of SVU. At the beginning I had a feeling it wasn't the episode described in TV Guide (which, by the way, I'm not too thrilled with their bigger, full-color version, but I digress). About halfway through the episode, when the Neo-Nazis showed up I thought, 'This definately isn't the SVU described in TV Guide for this week.' The shooting in the courtroom near the end of the episode really took me by surprise, as did Marcia Gay Harden's alleged white supremacist character turning out to be an undercover federal agent. I flinched along with hundreds of other SVU fans when Stabler got hit in the elbow, but I'm going to have to go back and rewatch that part to see just when Munch got shot in the butt. Because I was surprised when the scene changed to Bellevue's recovery room and it was Munchie who was talking to Harden's character and not Stabler.

Although, it does kind of figure that if any of the SVU gang got shot in the ass, it would have been John Munch.

11:11 pm - Okay, I went back to the last courtroom scene and rewatched it from the shooting on. It does show Munch going down, although offhand you can't really tell if he's hit or if he's just ducking. Also, I've got this feeling that the SVU section at FF.Net is going to be sporting a few alternate endings of this episode where either Stabler or Munch are injured worse than they already are. It'll most likely be Stabler, so the Elliot/Olivia shippers can have fun with that.

And now a meme, stolen from [livejournal.com profile] misscam:

Read anything good lately? Pick 5-10 books/fics/essays/etc that you're reading or finished recently and tell me why they should be squeed about, discussed, iconized, or sporked, as the case may be. (Feel free to do it in the comments here, if you don't want to do it in your own LJ.)

7. Two Hearts, by Peter S. Beagle. The sequel to PSB's The Last Unicorn, and also (he claims) a bridge for the actual sequel to TLU which he hopes to have published sometime next year or so.

6. Blessed are the Meek, by AlexCabotIsQueen. A SVU and CI crossover that brings the teams of Stabler and Benson and Goren and Eames together on the same case. Not only that, but the case they're working on centers around the musical Wicked. *g* Good stuff.

5. Splinters, by beaujolais. CSI fic wherein Brass is injured at an explosive (literally) crime scene. BrassCatherine friendship ensues, and there are hints of GSR.

4. Of Goblets and Masks, by NileGal (also available at [livejournal.com profile] dwfiction. A crossover between Doctor Who (current series, w/Ten!Doc) and Harry Potter (circa GoF). It's actually pulled off quite well, despite how badly the two fandoms might clash.

3. End of the Circle by MizJoely. Doctor Who fic, involving Seven and Ace and the answering of some questions about the Doctor's past...such as just where did the Doctor's granddaughter Susan come from anyway?

2. Songsmith, by Andre Norton and A.C. Crispin. Part of Norton's 'Witchworld' series, which IMHO is one of the overlooked and underappreciated series of the fantasy genre.

1. Harpo Speaks!, the autobiography of Harpo Marx. This book does well at painting a picture of all the facets of Harpo - entertainer, comedian, musician, loving husband and father and all-around a decent guy.
