Mariska Hargitay Latest Pic Teases Chris Meloni's 'Law & Order: SVU' Return

Mariska Hargitay and Chris Meloni are the 2020 saviors we need right now. I don't want to say the world starting going downhill once Mr. Meloni left SVU but... it kind of did?

Think about it, when was the last time the world was happy? 2011! When did Chris leave SVU? 2011! Coincidence? I think not!

If you've been following Chris Meloni's *SVU* saga, you'll know the actor was meant to return for the 22nd season premiere back in November.

However, scheduling conflicts and delays with Chris' spin-off show, Law & Order: Organized Crime meant the actor was left out of the premiere.

MAJOR BUMMER!

Fans have been waiting to see Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler together again! It's the reunion fans have been waiting *nearly* a decade for!

Thankfully, as this hell year comes to a close, there is light at the end of the tunnel!

Posting a photo from a recent *SVU* table read, Mariska teased fans with Chris' return!

"Well, that happened" she captioned the Zoom selfie.

DO U GUYS SEE ELLIOT STABLER chrismeloni1?!

WOOOOO!

He is looking stunning in a bright green button-down, if I do say so myself.

NEEDLESS TO SAY, the fans are eagerly awaiting Chris' return!

How excited are you for the return of Mr. Stabler?! Let us know in the comments below!
