Not to mention Kelli Giddish, who played the role. Now, girls, I haven't written anything about 'SVU" in a long time, because it has gone down the tubes so much, it almost isn't worth it. Besides, it has turned into "The Olivia Benson Show," thanks to Mariska Hargitay, who probably wanted Kelli off the show, because she was livening it up too much. Note, she always goes after the women---Kelli, Stephanie, Diane O'Neal--but not the men. Thank Heaven, because Peter Scanavino is scrumptious. Just like a cherry peach parfait, darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But last night, darlings, Amanda not only took the Fordham University teaching job, but she also became Mrs. Dominick Carisi, so that scrumptious parfait is hers! As the media has been calling it, the Rollisi wedding. I am telling you, I cried at the above moment. But what is Amanda going to do? Sure, she will be teaching, but then will she be a housewife? That is NOT our Amanda. Now, Olivia left it open for Amanda to come back--either to SVU, or as a visitor, so will there be some guest appearances from Kelli? I certainly hope so, because what will she being off the show do for Scanavino's character?
No use worrying about this show, because nothing really creative can be done as long as Mariska is on board, and she is not going anywhere. Did you see her one note emotional reaction after Amanda said she was leaving? That's the way I look after finishing a Joan Didion book!
Olivia is all doom and gloom. Thank, Kelli/Amanda, for twelve years of liveliness and balance.
And speaking of cherry peach parfaits, Amanda looked scrumptious in that gown!
