Law & Order: Special Victims Unit/Fridge


 * Fridge Logic: Often tends to crop up when things deemed unnecessary to the flow of the story are ignored by the writers. For example, it is never explained where a fifteen year-old boy who had slept with dozens of hookers was getting the money for the high-priced call girls he was seeking out.
 * Tempered by occasional Fridge Brilliance and Shown Their Work. For example, what was the name of the radical group in the season 10 episode "Transitions"? Children of Ariel. Many transgendered children, especially mtf children, express an affinity for mermaids.
 * Didn't Ariel want to have one more thing coming out from her waist?
 * Elliot Stabler frequently bends or outright breaks the law to torture suspects (who more often than not turn out to be innocent and are often killed as a result of this), but for some reason the only thing that's brought up to internal affairs is the fact that he sometimes wishes rapists would die.
 * Quite possibly because if his crossing the Moral Event Horizon in that manner did come to their attention, he would be fired. Assuming, of course, one believes there are actually decent people in this Crapsack World who would care about that...
