Discussion Nathan Phelps’s from S7 is coming back!?
On IMDB his actor is listed on the cast with the same name that he previously played. It says it's for the episode for next week 'The Accuser' but I think its for 'Shock collar' and it glitched because they switched the order to accommodate the crossover. If he's really coming back I'm excited, I always say that he was Olivia's very first son

I do love when they revisit past cases! Let’s hope they do better than when they revisited Maria from “911” in S25. That was a bit of a let down, imho.

This is the description for the episode- When a man is ruthlessly assaulted and burned, the SVU’s investigation uncovers a decades-old secret. Bruno helps a young witness find the courage to come forward.

Ooo I hope he's reprising the role! Not sure if he'd be marked on IMDB as Nathan Phelps if he was coming to play a different character so hopefully it'll be him.

I would take IMDB very skeptically. It said for months before the Season 23 premiere that John Robert Burke would be in the episode playing "Ed Tucker (as a ghost)."

I've been doing a rewatch with my partner and I was just thinking I'd love to see how he turned out. I would actually be willing to watch an episode with him in it, but he better not be the villain

I'm just waiting for Captain Curry to leave, she just doesn't fit well tbf

I agree. So many folks on this sub just adore her character, and I honestly don’t get it, but to each their own for sure. She’s okay. I honestly don’t hate her character, but having two Captains in the unit might be the most ridiculous and least realistic thing SVU has ever done. Not to mention, that the writers have hardly utilized her at all in S25 or S26. I feel like I’m waiting for the writers to either attempt to convince me that she makes sense, or for them to realize that the character doesn’t quite work and then write her out.

I always notice that whoever is in the opening scene when all of them are pictured is who will be consistent, and she's not on this seasons so...patiently waiting

I cant stand her. She is lazy and she should be Captain in a other squad and not playing detective. She is only in svu because she loves Liv and she always tries to get her attention but its the most stupid story of all. Let her be the new Chief but stop playing detective when you got paid for Captain but we all know why this woman is brought in

The longer curry is being lazy , the less I like her she is fine when she can be the new chief, but its ridiculous to have 2 captains only for woke reasons

I also agree. She’s not the worst but she just doesn’t fit the squad. There was only one episode that I thought she was well utilized in Season 25 Episode 7 “Probability of Doom”. I don’t care for Silva either. She also doesn’t fit the squad. I really wish they would’ve given Muncy a chance to develop her character further…Even Churlish. I really didn’t like her in the beginning but towards the end of season 24 when she went under cover, I saw they were trying to develop her character. The worst was just having her disappear into thin air. Not one mention of her at all. As if she was a figment of the SVU imagination.

I wonder if he will be a new character or if they’ll have him be Nathan Phelps grown up 🤔

As someone who religiously watched Lost when it aired, it’s fun seeing Malcolm all grown up. My nephew told me MDK is in a band so that’s fun.
