Let's be honest here. 21x05 at the end of their argument, was when Rollins realized that she was in love with Carisi. That look on her face at the end, she knew she was in deep with him

Oh, for sure. I feel like that was the episode we really got to see Amanda realise not only how serious her feelings for him were, but that she was going to need to do something about it ...

I've just checked the TV guide for the week ahead and it looks like, literally days after I completed my Carisi Years Rewatch, the channel here that's been airing old SVU episodes on Sunday and Monday nights is about to start airing season 16 starting tonight!

Am I ready to start watching Carisi's episodes all over again? Absolutely!

Sonny Carisi • Law and Order - 21x06  “Murdered At A Bad Address”

I don’t know why this reassuring little pat from 19x22 got me in the feels! 😭🥹 Maybe because Amanda is not usually the warm, affectionate one, but she’s tuned into Sonny’s distress here, and they’re still just co-workers/friends at this point? 🫶

We meet the new Trial Division chief in 25x13, Heidi Russell. Carisi's face when she came storming into an already-in-progress briefing was hilarious.

No rolled-up-sleeves Carisi this episode, but he was looking very pretty throughout:

Lots of quotable Fin this episode, too: "I envy anyone she's never met" (about Russell) and "I'll get mad at you later" (to Liv, after she's driven into a hail of bullets to get an injured Officer Montero to safety).

Well, that's my Carisi Years Rewatch complete! It took me six months (which I was not expecting), but it's been a lot of fun re-living the first ten years of Carisi's SVU journey.

It's the little boop he gives her cheek with his nose that does it for me.

Amanda returns in 25x11! That lovely domestic Rollisi scene in the cold open was the best. And Carisi is now "Daddy", not just to NIcky, but to Jesse and Billie, too - something he's wanted for so long.

I'm still rather peeved that they made Amanda unhappy at Fordham, even though we now know it's turned out well for her. At the time, though, it felt like her entire life was being upended for no real reason.

It's clear that Carisi just can't resist dropping the words "my wife" into the conversation whenever possible - he did it again this episode. Rollisi undercover as a couple was so much fun! Carisi helping Amanda with her wire for the undercover part of the op, then freaking out in the surveillance van when he thought something might be going wrong. Of course, Amanda had it all under control.

Such a good Rollisi episode!

Finally, some Courtroom Carisi in 25x10! Lots of ADA-ing, as well. It was like they finally remembered Carisi was a lawyer and were like, Hey, he can do courtroom stuff!

Carisi was also on the phone to Amanda this episode, while simultaneously displaying rolled-up sleeves - I am a fan of this combination of events.

But the best part of 25x10 was that Carisi didn't just get to read another perp for some much-deserved filth, he got to do it in a courtroom in public.

Carisi was in the squad room so much in 25x08 it almost felt like he was back to being a detective! It's been a while since we've seen Courtroom Carisi; I miss him.

More Squad Room Carisi in 25x09, but he also got out into the field with Liv on the investigatory side of things, which I always like to see (and wearing a bulletproof vest - there's something we haven't seen for a while!). Still waiting on some more Courtroom Carisi, though!

25x09 also gave us another rare sighting of Carisi-in-a-beanie. The weather looked awful that day; no wonder Peter asked for one!

My internet wanderings this morning led me to this pic of Peter in OC 4x04, and I am very glad to have been led there.

It's so weird to think that the first time I saw Person of Interest ep 3x23, Peter was just some random guest actor on a show I liked. I had no idea that he was on the verge of being cast as one of my all-time favourite TV characters, and just how much I would come to love both Carisi and Peter.

Carisi in Interrogation in 25x02, being beautifully snarky with a suspect who deserved all of the snark. Courtroom Carisi in this episode too! And the pep-talk he gave to Liv was so good.
