So, I turned on season 17 of law and order svu, because why not.

Am I missing something? I feel like these episodes all build a really cool crime and story, but then there is never any climax. There was an episode about police corruption, which ended after they the cops got charged. It seems like they all end with the arrest, and don't show the conclusion. I'm getting so frustrated with it.

Has svu always been like this? I remember watching regular law and order back in the day. The 2nd half of the show was always the legal part, and where all the cool shit got hammered out. Doesn't seem to be the case with svu
