So predictable!

Nothing real special about this show. The lead character is juggling a high pressure career, a baby, and a wife. Yawn.. Most of the scenes in the show and all of the arguments between her and her girlfriend are so predictable. It's a passable time filler if your out of things to watch.

Like the American series, Law & Order, SVU, this show is built on one purpose: titillating the viewers. With the show's ostensible premise being law and order, they are free to bring in incest, child porn (with photos), language about that, etc.

Wow. If you think SVU is titillating viewers with incest and child porn, you have a serious problem.

This is what a certain section of the populace feeds on and it is that section of the populace that is causing massive increases in child porn and incest. Voyeurism at its worst.

Yep. Serious problems indeed. How is a loving committed relationship between two consenting adults linked in any way to the criminal rape of children?

Are YOU titillated by incest and child porn because it's on tv? Or would you rather see it in person?

With the second theme -- gay marriage -- they are free to explore that subject ad nauseum. This is what a certain section of the populace feeds on and it is that section of the populace that is causing massive increases in child porn and incest.

Wow. That's some fear, anger, and hatred induced drivel right there. How does two grown consenting adults loving each other lead to criminal activity by others? People really need to change their uninformed perception of what's normal and natural, and cause and effect. Just because you don't like it or hate it, that doesn't mean it's abnormal, unnatural, or illegal. And you don't need tv or gay marriage for people (mostly STRAIGHT) to commit acts of incest and child porn. Were people perfect angels before radio and tv and gay marriage? I don't think so.
