"Law & Order" (pleasantly) surprises
Although the show has been on for nearly 20 years, I am pretty sure I've seen every episode of the original Law & Order series. (Don't worry -- this is not going to become a TV blog. After all, it is a "law" show.) This notwithstanding its (to me, maddening) tendency to mis-handle story-lines that involve the Catholic Church, priests, abortion, assisted suicide, etc. A recent episode, "Dignity", was a striking exception. Well done! Steve Dillard has more at First Things.
