Every time one of these clips pops up, the same thing happens: I start watching it, I get engrossed in the story and forget that I’m watching a clip, then the clip ends suddenly and I’m saaaaaad.

To add insult to injury, this season as well as the first 12 aren't available on Peacock

[@boybawang1981]

50K might not seem a lot for a murder charge...but minimum wage in 1990 was like $4.00 and gas prices ranged from $1.10 to $2.00!! OH THE 90'S!!!

[@boybawang1981]

@Mary Harrison Well, it fluctuates!! I remember working in '88,, I was only 7-years-old, but I remember making $3.00 an hour on the weekends when I helped my step-dad do building maintenance!! & his employee was making $3.50 cuz he was an adult!! So contrast that, a kid making 3 bucks to a 20-something year old making 50 cents more!!

[@boybawang1981]

@Mary Harrison Prolly the national average, I made 3 bucks an hour helping my step-dad, but my older brother only got paid $2.75 an hour working @ a market!!

[@mugwump242]

Where I live, gas prices didn't hit the $1/gallon mark until '93, '94 or thereabouts.

[@boybawang1981]

[@lloydpassafume5357]

I truly believe Michael Moriarty was the best actor on Law and Order. I love Jerry Orbach, Chris Noth, Sam Waterston, and plenty others, but Moriarty was so brilliant and very subtle. He played a character with a calm but calculating demeanor who rarely let off steam. The episode "Indifference" is Moriarty's best performance on the show. His cross examination of an abusive child molesting father is one of the greatest scenes in television.

[@RLplusabunchofdumbnumbers]

Which is funny, because in real life "calm" is not a word that was ever applied to him.

[@КристинаЩерба-е2и]

[@MMuraseofSandvich]

@@RLplusabunchofdumbnumbers Yup. Moriarty accused then-Attorney General Janet Reno of trying to control Hollywood or something. Real looney tunes stuff, especially considering the courts would shut DOJ down hard because First Amendment. Last I heard he was in Canada because he was afraid the federal government would pick him up, which was probably the craziest high-profile exit from the US until Snowden decided to flee to Putin.

I actually think the exact opposite. He's one of the worst actors on the show.

The way the defense attorney jerked his chair in to show he was extremely miffed with the judge’s ruling😂😂😂

It’s something to see how different l&o looks from the first season to today

[@carlosrvra]

The guest couple /slash/ criminals(?) of the week look to come from Melrose Place and Punxsutawney, PA, respectively 😄

[@rsybing]

I love this show and love the early seasons much more than the later ones, but a lot of the defenses then were really peculiar. "Prescription for Death" was "yeah, the doctor drank himself into severe intoxication but he was still a capable doctor." This episode is "rich, entitled Ivy Leaguer couldn't have possibly killed anyone because he was so successful on Wall Street." Did that really make sense to anyone in the early 90s?

[@LorieLynn]

Umm in 2013 there was a boy whose defense for having driven drunk which resulted in an accident killing multiple people and injuring others was that his affluent upbringing impaired his ability to understand things like right and wrong and the limits of what he should do. He was given probation based on this defense. So yes, I would bet that in the 90s there were people that thought the same way in reverse.

[@rsybing]

@@LorieLynn Affluenza was presented as a mitigating circumstance. These defenses are more about "I'm above being prosecuted because I'm am an awesome person."

[@LorieLynn]

@@rsybing Brock Turner only got six months for raping an unconscious girl on the basis that he was a good student, lacked a criminal record and was generally considered to be a good guy and that any harsher of a sentence would have had a significant and damaging impact on his life. His dad argued he should only get probation and that his life shouldn’t be ruined over “20 minutes of action”. So it is pretty common for wealthy people to use “they are a great person so we should let them off with a warning” as a defense for various crimes.

[@edubois31]

The defenses make just as much sense then as they do today. Look at the news!!

[@rsybing]

​@@edubois31 I know you want to make a political statement but that's not my point. A lot more thought is put into today's police procedurals than was the case in the 90s, is the point.

Remember this was a season 1 episode from 1991. Over 30 years ago the minimum wage was $4.25 per hour. Also, $100 from 1991 is $217 today in 2022. Put in perspective $50,000 was a little something.
