I never saw that episode. I only watched 2 or 3. The one that turned me off forever was set in a mall.
Three teenage girls had a confrontation in a bathroom in the mall, two of them gang-girlies and the third one a witness against one of their boyfriends in a court case. The gang girls had a gun and witness-girl somehow got hold of it and shot one of the gang girls dead. The other one ran away, as did witness-girl.
The SWAT team shows up (why would you call SWAT for THAT???) and Mr. Super SWAT gets on the mall PA system and announces to all the customers that they must all exit whatever stores they are in and get down on their knees in a long line out in the hallway with their hands behind their heads.
I sh*t you not. That was actually in the show. And all the canadian wimp-stupid sheep COMPLIED WITHOUT A COMPLAINT.
Now, I know it’s just fiction but it’s fiction that raises A LOT OF QUESTIONS about the writers, producers, directors, and actors who all think this was some kind of OK, and a lot more questions about the AUDIENCE that would watch such disgusting tripe without vomiting, which I almost did.
I never watched another episode of that POS show and it only sticks in my mind because I FEAR that our society is headed in that direction.
And by the way, before posting my original post on this thread I forgot the name of this show so I googled to find it and I found a review site in which the reviewer and the turd-brain readers all thought this show was GREAT.
My favorite nickname for SWAT is “Mary Mallninjas”
Wow, it sounds like your poison episode topped mine.
It's that kind of brainwashing that these TV shows engage in that is very dangerous to Society. Not necessary to the story line, but you get the constant theme that: citizens who possess firearms are evil (or foolishly stupid); a police state is desirable; Constitutional rights don't exist, except in the mind of whackos; Christians are evil; Muslims are always good; homosexuality is 'cool' - and they are unfairly oppressed by evil Christians.... It goes on and on. These TV writers ruined NCIS, Without a Trace, the Unit (or the Eunuch). Law and Disorder was always biased - but it was a fair premise that some decent writers could have produced some watchable episodes. TV is nothing but an open sewer into our homes. I use it mostly nowadays to watch DVDs of stuff I like.
