Law & Order: Special Victims Unit is one of the many television shows to see their season cut short due to the production shutdown caused by the coronavirus. There were big plans in motion for the season 21 finale, and it does have a connection to the return of Elliot Stabler to the network.
Warren Leight said the following about the return of two characters to Law & Order: SVU, per TV Line:
“We were hoping to bring back [Stabler]’s wife and troubled son — in part to tee up his return.”
It wasn’t revealed which of his two sons would return. NBC has already order a 13 episode season one for the yet to be titled Law & Order spin-off. Chris Meloni will reprise his role for the series.
What do you think? Did you want to see this season finale for Law & Order: SVU? Do you plan to watch the spin-off?
Yes. Would not have missed season finale. Have been watching SVU since first episode. My favorite show. Wanted to see who would be returning!
Would watch the spinoff but have heard it will only be on NBC streaming channel if so then it’s likely I won’t watch
Would love to see Stabler return
Would have been amazing. Love law and order and would love to see Stabler return
Season finale with Stabler. Live SUV, been watching since season 1, plus Law & Order, criminal intent.
Been waiting so long for Stabler’s return!!
I Want To See Law and Order
Never liked Stabler. Would not watch spin-off.
Yes
I will definitely watch the spin off! SVU is one of my favorite shows and I watch it every week. I look forward to the new show!!
I would watch the spin-off. However, every time I get hooked and like a program, it gets cancelled.
I’m a huge fan of SVU & was sad when Chris Meloni left. I bet the finale would have been great with him back leading to the intro of the new series starring role. Big ups!
Omg, we love to see Stabler back.
Love SVU, I hope it stays on the air…..!!!
Definitely wanted to see it.
