It's the beginning of a new era.

When "Law & Order: SVU" premieres its 13th season (Wednesday, Sept. 21 at 10/9c on NBC), Mariska Hargitay will be flanked by two new detectives.

Goodbye, Christopher Meloni! Hello, Danny Pino and Kelli Giddish!





Pino takes on the role of Nick Amaro, a detective whose forte is reading the criminal and empathizing with them to elicit a confession.

Giddish plays Detective Amanda Rollins, fresh out of training with a wealth of knowledge that hasn't yet been put to use.
