Brian Cassidy

• ... that Richard Belzer insisted Law & Order: Special Victims Unit creator Dick Wolf cast Dean Winters as his partner, Brian Cassidy, before he would join the cast?

• Comment: Timely since the 300th episode of SVU is coming up.

Comment: When do you want it to feature on main page? You have to mention the date. Not everyone knows when 300th episode of SVU is airing. That way reviewers can prioritize this. (I am not reviewing this hook. Was just passing by.) §§ Dharmadhyaksha§§ { T/ C} 06:11, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

Ooops, you're right. The 300th episode will be on October 10. It'd be great to get it on then. Redfarmer ( talk) 11:32, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

Correction, I had my dates wrong. The 300th episode will be on October 24, not the 10th. Redfarmer ( talk) 11:16, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

• I have inspected some sources, including the unofficial guidebook about the show. Also, I have watched SVU before. I must say that the every information is well-sourced and well-written. Although I haven't watched the video and looked at other sources, I'm very sure that these sources are reliable. The hook is passable. -- George Ho ( talk) 14:01, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
