We are entirely unashamed to admit to our love of Law

We are entirely unashamed to admit to our love of Law & Order: SVU—after all, what other show on network television has seen cameos from a Real Housewife, Mischa Barton and scary corn alike? And the hits just keep coming: Tomorrow night, the man formerly known as Uncle Jesse, John Stamos, will guest as a "reproductive abuser" who pokes holes in condoms to impregnate unwitting women across the city. The horror! We spoke to Stamos and SVU producer Neal Baer about the stint, which we are not-so secretly hoping develops into a mutli-episode arc (though it's sadly not likely).

"It really is an interesting casting choice because you buy in to, 'Oh, it's me. It’s John Stamos,'" said Stamos. "He’s kind of sweet with the ladies and he’s charming but then all of a sudden, you find out that he’s an evil, deceptive man who's just procreating for this selfish reason of wanting more of his own DNA in the world… But he's not all evil and weird and nefarious. He really, with all of his heart, loves babies and loves children," Stamos explains. "He's totally unlike any character I've seen or read about anywhere."

"We wrote this character specifically with John in mind," said Baer. "We really needed someone who was completely charming, very handsome, and had a way with women…we're really happy he agreed to it, because if he didn't we would had had to go out casting for a 'Stamos-style' type." And while the pair wouldn't give up any final-moments spoilers, Stamos will say that "There’s more blood involved in that [last] scene than I saw on ER in four years."
