Flaws and Disorder

Ding Dong! That famous Law and Order signature ding-dong, frankly, is one of the best things on TV. I know, that is pathetic, but I ain't apologizing for that.

Anyway, you'd think with the number of Indians in the USA, the fucking writers could get the basics straight in a recent episode. Apparently they just smoke crack all day long, taking breaks to eat hemp cookies, and write stories based on names pulled from the index of old editions of the Jungle Book. Dick Wolf, you may be rich and successful, but your show is going down the drains.

So this is the plot. A very exotic looking woman called "Bella" - Bella "Khan" - cast in the mould of Benazir Bhutto fighting for Tamil independence in Sri Lanka, which we all know is attached at the butt to the Hindu Kush; her husband "AJ" who look like Omar Sharif; and her brother "Rani Khan". That's right, Rani as in "Queen", and "Khan" as in the old Mongol/Turkic surname that means roughly "King", which many idiot Afghans, wrongly, think is their martial birthright.

You don't have to be Indian to see how ridiculous this plot is. And Madhur Jaffrey, that annoying bitch that pops up every time an old crone with an annoying Indian accent is required in anything on movies, TV or milk cartons.

Shame on you Dick Wolf.
