Christopher Meloni On His Favorite ‘Svu’ Scene Opposite Mariska Hargitay
Christopher Meloni took a trip down memory lane, dishing on his favorite Law & Order: Svu scene opposite longtime on-screen partner Mariska Hargitay.
Speaking in a recent interview with Us Weekly, the Organized Crime star pointed to a particularly fraught moment within the grisly crime procedural’s world — and one that would have repercussions for his character Elliot Stabler and Hargitay’s Benson for seasons to come.

Recognized by fans as an especially difficult episode, the aptly named installment caused a seismic shift within the duo’s friendship. When hunting down serial killer and sex offender Victor Gitano (Phillips), the characters are forced into a life-and-death decision...
