Slog - Comments on When Bad Meets Evil http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/04/when_bad_meets_evil Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (or Law & Order: This Baby's Been Raped!, as it's known in my house) continues its reign as the most sadistic show in television history. Speaking of SVU: I recently watched the E! True Hollywood Story of Mariska Hargitay, and learned that the dark, twisted, sexual-assault obsessed storylines of the show took their toll on her emotions, so she took a vacation to Hawaii and went swimming with dolphins, and while she was swimming with dolphins she had an epiphany, and now she has a charity devoted to taking victims of sexual assault swimming...

And that is all for headline trivia by Carollani this morning.

The show that the government has now acknowledged as a source of inspiration for its torture techniques? Really?

Have you ever watched 24? They don't tend to dwell on child rape and the gruesome details of sexual assault in as many possible configurations as they can imagine, week after week . . .

And wow, this is certainly a new low for Robin Williams. That looks just terrible.

And then there are nights like tonight, where I made a date with a friend and her cable TV to watch it. Because everyone loves a train wreck.

She was in the car when Jayne Mansfield was killed, and has a scar from that.

TVG was obv referring to the hot-tastic lead actors, but seriously ... calling a show about sexual assault "Sexy" is wrong. Just wrong enough to be awesome.

As a parent of teenagers, I am really, really not a fan of underage sex. But (unlike the SVU writers) I know a college student hooking up with a high schooler is waaay different than hooking up with a kindergartener.

And Mariska Hargitay looks more and more like a human Bratz doll every season. So wrong.

I think you're the bee's knees. But I'm disappointed with this post. Because, I clicked on the link expecting it to be just hilarious. It was gonna be about another idiotic star who has a quasi charity designed to help people they don't actually take the time to understand.

And then I clicked on it, prepared for hilarity, and read about how Mariska Hargitay is a trained rape crisis counselor, and actually does a shit-ton of intelligent charity work for people recovering from sexual abuse.

So, not so funny, actually pretty nice.


Go Mariska Hargitay, and go dolphins!
