Law & Order: SVU Trivia
- Episode Issues:
- In the episode, Wanderlust, there a is scene when Benson and Stabler are walking and talking outside and people can be heard in the background yelling, "Hey! They're on TV!"
- In the opening scene of Disrobed, Munch reaches into the victim's car and pulls a gun holster out of the car, however, he is not wearing latex gloves. Detectives would never touch any evidence from a crime scene without wearing gloves.
- Continuity with the Law & Order universe:
- In the episode, Monogamy, Stabler mentions that they cannot charge the suspect with anything more than an illegal third trimester abortion because the detectives are unable to prove that the child in question was born alive. However, this fact had been established in the Law & Order episode, Misconception, in which it is stated that an individual could be charged with manslaughter if he or she caused a miscarriage in a fetus that had reached twenty one weeks.
- In the episode Popular, Cragen says, "these kids are really getting on my nerves, which is probably why I don't have any," however in the Law & Order episode Bad Faith, in which he previously he previously starred, he mentioned that he had a fourteen-year-old child.
