  5. We need a little bit less Amaro, and a little bit more Rollins.  I know Amaro is supposed to be the Stabler replacement (the new male lead) but it's Rollins who is the veteran Sex Crimes detective.  And judging from Rollins' behavior last episode, whatever training program they've got down in Atlanta is a helluva lot better than the one they have in NYC.

  6. Actually you are wrong, Amaro is not Stabler's replacement. The writers never had a replacement for him, it's been comfirmed that Amaro isn't a replacement at all.

    I like him a lot, Rollings tended to jump to conclusions a bit fast..

  7. He's not the new Stabler from a thematic standpoint, but from a conceptual standpoint he is.  He's filling in the open slot of "Male Lead Character".  This means that it's he who gets the screentime, and he who plays the primary motivator in the plot alongside Benson.  Even in "Double Strands" in Rollins' own case, it was Amaro who was the primary actor, not Rollins.  That's just weird.  It's Rollins who is the veteran Sex Crimes detective.  Why is Amaro playing such a major role in these cases?  If anything, he should be filling the shoes of "The Rookie".

    I don't see Rollins as jumping to conclusions at all.  Back in "Double Strands", she see's a bizarre intersection of three completely independent and fairly distinctive traits in a rapist whom she knows should be back down in Georgia.  Correctly, she realizes that this is probably not a coincidence.  She follows the evidence, which nails the suspect perfectly: First, eyewitness accounts positively identify the suspect and his distinctive tattoo.  Second, the timeframe of the suspect's moves up and down the East Coast coincide perfectly with the timeframe of the past rapes.  Third, DNA evidence conclusively matches all 4 of the rape kit samples taken from prior victims.  That's a slam dunk case by any standards.  For better or worse, cops tend not to investigate suspects allowing for the possibility that they may have an evil twin running around somewhere.

    And to Rollins' credit (and also putting her head and shoulders over Benson, Stabler, and Tuatola from seasons past) once she finds out there's that one-in-a-million chance that she might be wrong, she doesn't dig her heels in and push back.  She accepts the evidence and rolls with it.

  8. I wouldn't be so quick to say that, it's only been just three episodes that Amaro's been in and four episodes for Rollings. The writers are still building up both characters, you cannot automatically say that Rollings has it and Amaro doesn't. They are both still getting their feet wet.

    A rookie wouldn't be a detective, they are on the streets on patrol.

  9. But Amaro has already had far more screentime, let alone plot driving screentime, than Rollins has.  He's been given far more characterization: We know he has a wife serving in Afghanistan and a 4 year old kid.  What do we know about Rollins?  She's the veteran Sex Crimes Detective.  Why is she sitting in the back playing support?  She should be up at the front alongside Benson, while Amaro sits back in the squad room and learns the ropes of investigating sex crimes.  In terms of sex crimes investigating experience, Amaro IS a rookie.  Or he should be.

  10. I still disagree, I don't think he is a rookie. He still getting used to working in this squad; and doesn't want to push things more than it should be.

    Benson doesn't care for Rollings, it's clear. That's why Amaro is learning from Benson. They aren't partners at all, she's just showing him the ropes.

    If he didn't have experience he wouldn't be allowed into sex crimes,

  11. But he is a rookie, at least in terms of Sex Crimes.  He's a Warrants and Narcotics Detective.  That is an entirely different line of work.  He has absolutely zero experience working sex crimes.  This is why he should be learning, not taking point in these cases.

    Rollins, on the other hand, is not a rookie.  She comes into the squad already with extensive experience working SVU cases, only not in NYC.  So why is she not working point in these cases?  Hell, why wasn't she working point on her OWN case, in "Double Strands"?

    The share of screentime makes no sense in terms of internal logic.  It only makes sense in terms of show mechanics, and that Amaro is our new male lead.
