BREAKING NEWS: Christopher Meloni announces he’s leaving “Law & Order: SVU” for movie career…

Leave a comment

After 12 years of starring in the NBC legendary show, “Law & Order: SVU”, one of the shows leading stars, Christopher Meloni announced he is quitting. Why? He wants to move on to bigger opportunities. He revealed he wants to do Hollywood films full time after he leaves the show.

While most would find it sad that Chris is leaving for a movie career, I don’t find it sad at all as I’m actually happy for him. I always find him very talented and he is a great actor, I think he’s going to make a great movie star.

Stars that leave TV shows do go on to become big movie stars like what happened to Tom Hanks and Robin Williams. Will Smith (Fresh Prince of Bel Air) and Jim Carrey (In Living Color) also left their shows for movies.

If you think Chris Meloni is going to have a failed movie career in the future, I don’t think he will. He will do good, trust me. I’ve seen Chris’s both TV shows with HBO’s “Oz” and “L&O: SVU”. I’m cetainly looking forward to seeing what his first movie role is going to be and it wouldn’t surprise me if he’ll star in some crime action drama film.

Report: Christopher Meloni and Mariska Hargitay signs two year deal for “Law and Order: SVU”…they are staying put…for now…

Leave a comment

There’s been worries that “Law and Order: SVU’s” two biggest stars, Mariska Hargitay and Christopher Meloni were going to get the pink slip from the show, but not too worry, they aren’t going anywhere! At least for now. The two has signed a two year deal to stay with the show. Look like Dick Wolf somehow agreed to give them a raise they asked for, they’ll be getting paid $400,000 an episode, much higher than they were paid before.

Variety Reports:

NBC is smart. It would be insane if they left the show, so I’m happy they are on for another two years. Good news. The show’s ratings would tank without them on.

BREAKING NEWS: Mariska Hargitay and Christopher Meloni to get the pink slip from NBC? Read here to find out why…

Leave a comment

Law and Order’s, Dick Wolf, may terminate “SVU’s” two biggest stars of the show, Mariska Hargitay and Christopher Meloni…why? It’s all about the money. Reports say that Mariska’s and Chris’s $350 K contracts will expire in May, when they renew their contracts for the 11th season, Mariska and Chris are asking to be payed more, but Dick Wolf is not allowing it.

More on it here:

Mariska and Chris are the reasons the show gets high ratings every week. Those two help the show. Without them, the ratings would tank. These two are the best actors of the show and it would be a mistake if they get rid of them.

Christopher Meloni is an amazing actor and it be a shame if he was to be let go over money. NBC should give them what they want. They deserve to get payed more. Two big name TV stars that helped “SVU” become a mainstream TV show, and they don’t deserve to get paid more?

I know the economy is bad…the only reason Dick Wolf doesn’t want to pay them more is to help save money for his own pockets. If these two get canned, that would be travesty.

Lungs collapses are no fun. Glad she’s okay. I’ve always liked her character on Law and Order SVU, she is also a pretty cute looking woman for her age as well.

Thought: Robin Williams on last night’s “Law and Order: SVU”…

Leave a comment

I watched it last night. The “Law and Order: SVU” Robin Williams special, and it was surprisingly a very good episode, one of the best Law and Order episodes I’ve seen in a long time. As I already predicted, Robin Williams pulled off an amazing performance, it sent chills. I loved how Robin’s character in the show (pictured above) first turned out to be a good guy then turned bad at the end. Robin’s acting was better than the cast on the show. As a matter of fact, this is why he is doing movies over the years because he is just too good for TV.

I’ll be on the lookout to see how the ratings did for last night’s episode.

Here is the best scene from last night’s episode where Robin really started getting powerful in his performance. This scene with Robin and Christopher Meloni sent chills down my spine. This was a very moving scene. Great acting by both men all around, congrats Robin and Christopher!

REMINDER: Robin Williams to guest star on “Law and Order: SVU” this Tuesday…

Leave a comment

Not only Grand Theft Auto IV hits stores that day, the “Law and Order: SVU” episode that guest stars Robin Williams will air on NBC this Tuesday at 10:00 p.m.

I don’t know if I’m gonna be watching that or not, I may just record it because I have feeling I’ll be addicted to GTA IV and will probably be playing that game all evening and night.

Robin Williams being on that show will indeed score high ratings for “Law and Order: SVU”. It’s his first TV appearance in many years and it will be people’s one time opportunity to see Robin Williams on TV for free instead of paying to see him on the big screen.

It shall be a good episode and of course he will deliver an incredible performance because Robin can play any role that throws at him no matter what it is.

Looking forward to seeing it.
