Mariska Hargitay said she cried after seeing Christopher Meloni’s reaction to “Law & Order: Organized Crime” being cancelled.

“I saw it and burst out in tears, first of all,” Hargitay told Extra at NBCUniversal’s Emmy Luncheon in L.A on Wednesday. “I immediately burst out in tears because it has, just like [Meloni] said, and he was so beautiful and open — because it has been a great ride. And it has been so beautiful and intimate and such a huge part of his life and was life-changing for him.”
