Elliot “El” Stabler, Sr. was a detective in the Manhattan Special Victims Unit. He was partnered with Olivia Benson for over twelve years, and reported to.
I think that much I know. Now, those who’ve been playing detective and following the “SVU” clues over the past few weeks might not be too shocked. At the end of March, NBC ordered a Stabler-focused spinoff from the main show, starring Meloni as the tough, volatile but much-admired cop. The new series will reportedly be set in the organized crime division, so he wouldn’t be working opposite his old partner Capt.
Olivia Benson Mariska Hargitay , but that was OK for fans, who’ve been longing to return Stabler to the beat for years. Stabler and Benson played partnered detectives on “SVU” when it premiered in ; the pair had terrific chemistry and though their story never became a love affair Stabler was mostly happily married most of the time , they clearly felt very deeply for each other. Meloni exited the series in after the show’s 12th season.

Will they be part of the Season 22 premiere? Leight isn’t sure yet. That means some of the details of the scrapped finale could become part of the new premiere. But there’s still one hitch.
