Law & Order: SVUrenewed for season 28, Mariska Hargitay isn’t going anywhere. She’s been with the show since the very start, and she has no plans to leave anytime soon. Through 26 seasons and more than 550 episodes, Hargitay has probably been the show’s biggest supporter, singing its praises as both entertainment and as a force for social awareness and change. But she also reserves plenty of praise for the show’s creator and executive producer, Dick Wolf. Over the years Hargitay has consistently given Wolf credit as the visionary who got the show rolling and has kept it rolling for decades. (Click on the media bar below to hear Mariska Hargitay.)
Law & Order: SVU airs Thursdays at 9/8c on NBC, and episodes start streaming the following day on Peacock.
