| It’s rare that a television event lives up to its hype. But thanks to Meloni and Hargitay, Elliot Stabler’s big return to the
Law & Order universe really did.
We’d certainly missed seeing these two together on our screens. But ahead of the crossover event, we also wondered whether it would be possible for the actors to resume Benson and Stabler’s compelling, complicated relationship after so much time. (After all, Meloni left the series 10 years ago!)
