As a gamer who has spent countless hours binge-watching TV shows and movies, I can honestly say that moments like these are what make the long hours of entertainment worth it. The story of Mariska Hargitay‘s boss, Dick Wolf, and his iconic “Law & Order” ringtone is a perfect example of how a simple detail can elevate a moment to legendary status.
Mariska Hargitay, in her 26th season of “Law & Order: SVU”, remains taken aback by her fellow cast members, even her superior. With Dick Wolf planning numerous shows for the 2024 TV lineup, including all the “One Chicago” and “FBI” series, as well as being the brain behind “L&O”, it’s no wonder Hargitay laughed while narrating the story about discovering her boss’s humorous ringtone.
On Late Night with Seth Meyers, the actress found herself discussing Wolf, a topic she immediately recognized due to Hargitay’s telltale expression. Prior to their panel at the Smithsonian, they had been scheduled to appear together, and yet, remarkably, her boss’s phone still rang, despite being instructed to silence it beforehand.
On this occasion, although Hargitay had heard her supervisor’s ringtone before, she found it particularly amusing because people were speaking beautiful, heartfelt words and everyone seemed on the verge of tears. In the middle of all that emotion, the distinctive “Law & Order” sound effect could be heard, making the situation even more comical. Meyers also shared a video clip of the incident, and as expected, it was just as funny as you’d imagine.

It’s not really surprising to learn that Wolf’s ringtone is the theme song from “Law & Order,” given its popularity and iconic status as a jingle. However, what truly stands out is the moment his phone rang during a quiet, emotional panel discussion, making for an interesting and memorable event.
As a devoted fan, I can’t help but admire Mariska Hargitay for finding humor in the situation and continuing to chuckle about it. And you know what? I think this incident is going to be one of those memories that pop up unexpectedly from time to time, causing her to burst into laughter all over again.
The “Law & Order” series, which began in the early ’90s, has seen numerous actors join and leave. However, one consistent element throughout its long run is the iconic theme song. Simply hearing the “DUN DUN” segment during the opening credits makes me feel energized. Moreover, comedian Seth Meyers proposed an entertaining idea: if someone uses that ringtone and then says “There’s been a murder” after hanging up, it would make them feel like they are part of the show itself.
Despite some people growing weary of repeatedly hearing the iconic tune of “Law & Order”, it appears that creator Dick Wolf and star Mariska Hargitay haven’t had enough, instead showing their unwavering affection for it. This testifies to the significant influence the series as a whole has exerted, as even a fleeting moment can effectively dispel tension. There are numerous classic theme songs that remain powerful, and “Law & Order” undeniably belongs in this category, as demonstrated by this amusing anecdote shared by the show’s leading actress herself.
Every Thursday at 9 p.m. ET on NBC or by subscribing to Peacock, you’ll get to witness Detective Hargitay unravel mysteries, following the well-known theme tune. New episodes of SVU air then!
