When Marty went back to 1885 to rescue Doc, they had to find a way to get the time machine up to 88mph without any gas which Doc said wouldn't be available to them for years, but at the time, there were 2 time machines; there was the one that Marty used to go from 1955 to 1885 and the same time machine hidden in the cave that Doc ensured would be available to Marty in 1955 so he could go home.

They had to leave one of the time machines in the cave so that the Marty stuck in 1955 could use it to get out and had to use the other to get out of 1885 before Bufford killed one of them, but if gas was the main problem, couldn't they have siphoned whatever gas was left in the time machine Doc hid in the cave or used parts from one to repair the other while leaving the other in good enough condition that the 1955 Doc could repair for Marty?

The first time Tynan demanded Benson's badge and gun was right after the trial where she was found in contempt by a corrupt judge trying to force her to violate the Rape Shield Law, and with decades on the force, she had to know that suspending her for not breaking the law despite being held in contempt which she got out of when the victim told her to testify wasn't going to work.

The second and last time was at the hospital for supposedly commanding an operation that put officers in danger, which was obviously a load of BS considering they were chasing a serial killer who had just abducted another child who they rescued and caught the serial killer who knew he could be facing the death penalty if he was extradited to Florida. Benson didn't just bring SVU detectives; she had the appropriate amount of backup for the operation and before the man they were chasing shot Detective Griffin and the other officer, she warned that he could be armed and dangerous.

I haven't seen 1 positive post or comment about Tynan since the season started and if keeping her secret about Griffin's father was her main objective, it makes no sense to go after Benson who never would've investigated a decades-old shooting that had nothing to do with SVU or any sex crime, and while turning down the offer of a promotion may have shown Tynan that Benson wasn't one to be controlled with the carrot, choosing to use the stick over bullshit resulted in her losing Griffin's trust and loyalty and gave Benson the information she was so desperately trying to hide.

I bet most of the regulars in this subreddit could've written a better storyline or given her a better reason to go after Benson than a recycled version of what Stabler found out about his father during OC's investigation into "The Brotherhood."

Before S21 of the original version of Law & Order, who were your favorite detective partners, favorite EADA, favorite ADA, and favorite District Attorney? Who were your least favorite?

My favorite detective team was Briscoe & Green; my favorite EADA was McCoy, my favorite ADA was Ross, and my favorite District Attorney was Schiff.

My least favorite detective team was Lupo & Bernard, my least favorite EADA was Cutter, my least favorite ADA was Carmichael, and my least favorite District Attorney was Branch.

Are there other Law & Order:: Criminal Intent fans who think the best episodes of the series are the ones with Detective Goren and Eames?

In the beginning of the series they're the main detectives for the unit and Goren's style is completely different from any of the other detectives like Briscoe, Green, Fontana, Curtis, the SVU detectives, and later additions to the show like Detective Logan who was one of the original detectives on the regular Law & Order until he clocked a councilman.

When Goren and Eames worked together, Goren really got inside the heads of the suspects and despite his eccentricity, he was one of the smartest detectives in the Law & Order universe, but while the episodes with Logan and his various partners were still good, they weren't as interesting as the episodes with Goren and Eames.

Agree or disagree?

A lot of the actors and actresses from the Law & Order universe start with appearances on one of the shows (Original, SVU, Criminal Intent, etc.) end up moving on to bigger and better roles in HBO, NBC, and other networks' series.

I was watching Law & Order:: Criminal Intent and came across the episode "Diamond Dogs" (S5E2) which came out in late 2005 with a young Peter Scanavino knocking over jewelry stores to feed his, his mother's, and his girlfriend's heroin addiction.
