Technically, Chris meloni was star of the show when it started.

It’s actually funny because some episodes in the first 8 seasons (I’m currently watching 9) she isn’t even in the episode or is basically an extra with like 2 lines. It was originally the Stabler show. Now it’s the Benson show.

True, but the earlier episodes were more balanced. There were even episodes without Olivia and without Elliot.

like the show is centered around her development as a detective and now leader of her unit 😭

Stabler was actually the "main character" until he left. Especially first few seasons

Bro stabler didn’t go through nearly as much character development or trauma as benson. Not to mention she’d only been generally absent because she had her kids 😭

Hasn’t it always been ?? I thought the whole point from the very beginning was that she is the main character solving crimes with different detectives who come in and out 🤣 from episode one she’s given main character.

The only person who's been credited in every episode even the one she was physically in, the only one to move up all the ranks, the only one who basically goes through everything since season 1, the show quite literally has been her show since day one. People are dense.

It makes me sad that Mariska isn’t credited first because it is the Olivia Benson show. She is the focus character
