Why oh why did they skip seasons 2, 3, & 4 and jump straight to season 5??? Season 5 is actually one of the weaker seasons of this show. Stephanie March's ADA Cabot was a really strong, compelling character, and this franchise really took a nose dive when Diane Neal came onboard to replace her in season 5. The clumsy, ineffective ADA Casey Novak character pales (literally and figuratively) in comparison to Cabot. I find myself cringing at DN's line deliveries on a regular basis.
The writing also became pretty sloppy in this season. Many of the episodes attempted to address six different ripped-from-the-headlines! issues all at once. Some of the storylines seemed so recycled that one week I thought I was watching a repeat, when I was actually watching a new episode. The continuity department also seemed asleep at the wheel since what little bit of character development we had gotten in earlier seasons was frequently thrown out the window during this season.
That said, true fans of the show will probably want to get this for the "Loss" episode alone. (High drama! Explosions! Lots of subtext!)
I had been waiting for the Season 2 DVDs for ages, and I really can express nothing but disappointment in this decision to fast forward to Season 5.

This past season when NBC had a failed show and cancelled it, it was easy to plug in an episode of one of the Law & Order franchise. Special Victims Unit (as well as Criminal Intent) episodes were not only shown on NBC but repeated a week and a half or so later on USA Network. Plus the amount of times repeats were shown to fill spaces left by cancelled shows and over the holidays. That means each one of these episodes has seen network airing in prime timew, not just twice, but sometimes four and five times.
Does Universal really think I'm going to spend my money on a box set of DVDs showing episodes I HAVE SEEN SO MANY TIMES THAT RECENTLY?

I'm so glad that Universal is skipping ahead to Season 5 on DVD. This was the best season so far. But don't worry. Universal will be releasing Seasons 2, 3 and 4. The most recent L&O seasons are coming first, though, because a few weeks after they hit stores, the next seasons will begin broadcasting on NBC.

I really like this series, as I have all the Law & Order shows and spinoffs, but I'm curious as to why we are getting season 5 before season 2,3, and 4? Same goes for the others as well, Law & Order itself jumped for season 2 to 14, weird way to release them, don't you think?
