Iconic Law and Order :SVU detective to get own show

It’s been years since one of Law and Order: SVU’s favorite detectives left the show and he has been extremely missed. I’m talking about Eliott Stabler, Olivia Benson’s longtime partner. Now Deadline is reporting that the man behind the iconic character is indeed getting a spin-off show. Chris Meloni will indeed make his return to television. It has been 12 years since we saw his character with SVU and that is 12 years too long if you ask me.

The new show is said to focus on the organized crime unit that Stabler heads up, although we have no title for the new show yet. The series will still be set in NYC, so hopefully a Benson/Stabler crossover does happen. Law and Order: SVU continues to be the most popular of the series to date and continues to air new seasons. This news is welcome with so much uncertainty in the entertainment world so far this year. Crossing my fingers for some more news on this soon! Welcome back, Stabler!
