Another Acting Triumph For Marin Ireland, Last Night On 'SVU'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'


                       This has been some season for Marin Ireland. First, her brilliant turn as Sandi on "The Slap"--oh, my God, her Meryl Streep moment at the barbecue was worth the whole episode--and now here superb, and altogether different portrayal of Bella Sullivan, sister of Detective Carisi, superbly played by Peter Scanavino. She is pregnant by her ex-convict husband, Tommy Sullivan  (Michael Chernus), who maintains that, while he was imprisoned, one of the female prison guards, Donna Marshall (played by by Molly Price as a REAL bitch, who with that hairstyle, or wig, I swear was trying to do an impersonation of Cathy Moriarty!!!!!!!!! Why didn't they just get Cathy in the first place?  She has been on the franchise before!) raped him in his cell!  Which, of course examined the whole "men can be raped, too" issue!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                         The strong performances should have come from the actors playing Tommy and Donna.  But it was Marin's show all the way!  Her torment, conflict, and finally the love she feels for her man, and what he went through, out acted everyone on the show, even Scanavino, who generally out acts the staff, save Kelli Giddish, as Rollins.

                            I did not see the entire episode, girls, but what I saw was impressive.  Marin managed to upstage even Raul Esparza!!!!!!!!!!!    And where were Kelli and Danny Pino?  I missed Kelli, but not that Pino guy!!!!!!!!!  Will someone tie a tin can around that little broad's tail????????  He is not worthy of being on the show!!!!!!!!!!!!

                              As for Marin, bring her back!  As Bella, a replacement for Pino, anything!  She did what I thought was the impossible!

                                 She brightened an 'SVU' episode with solid acting. Something that has been missing since Celia Keenan-Bolger guested on the program!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                   Go, Marin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
