It's Official: Christopher Meloni Is Leaving Law & Order: SVU...NOOOO!


I hoped this day would never ever come but it has...hottie Christopher Meloni is leaving NBC's Law & Order: SVU after 12 seasons.

Meloni played the deliciously handsome and bad ass Detective Elliot Stabler for more than 272 episodes but NBC couldn't get him to resign his contract for a 13th season.  According to TV Line, Meloni officially left the hit show after negotiations fell through between the star and network. 

Series creator Dick Wolf is already searching for a big name replacement but we all know Det. Stabler and his muscles are irreplaceable.

Personally I don't think this shows going to survive (as much as I love it) after Meloni is no longer on there and the talented Mariska Hargitay begins making less and less appearances. Rumor is she's not officially 'leaving' the show but since the adoption of her daughter she will be spending more time with family and less on the show. Her character Detective Olivia Benson may be due for promotion on the show...

A rumor I pray is just that, a rumor, is that casting is looking at replacing her with former 'Ghost Whisperer' star Jennifer Love Hewitt. If this happens, I'm just calling it quits on watching the show.
