This series started off bad...got better and then got absolutely horrible. It made me sick. A homosexual that was killed was refered to as "she". And at the end of the show the father who killed the transvestite who was having relations with his son was told that he had killed a 115 lb "girl". And had sacrificed his only son on the altar for the sake of his own pride. Demonic overtones coupled with godless and ridiculous liberalism. No wonder this show flopped. If it was still on tv....I would never tune in again. Stick with all the other Law and Orders. Also try "Homicide, Life on the street". It is very very good. One detective goes a little gay during the end of its run, but besides that it is really good.
