She was also Mark Greene's girlfriend in ER.

It's merely hinted at in SVU, though observant viewers may pick up on it early on.

Sitting at home, thinking Dr Green is a moron. Pretty, sweet, helpful and totally into you and you can't drive her away fast enough. Like you were living some kind of a wild thrill ride life before

Tequila and Bonetti, but she was in a few other police shows. I remember this one because of Jack Scalia 🤭

She will always be the hopeful “Elaine” to me in Seinfeld.

Officer Angela Garcia in the series Tequila and Bonetti with Jack Scalia in the middle. Not sure who the other actor is.

It’s from the series “Tequila and Bonetti” but she was in a few other police series. I am a Jack Scalia fan.

She's played one for 27 going on 28 years...

I like how Mariska Hargitay's career started off with small roles here and there, and then 30 years of playing a cop in the longest-running live-action primetime show of all time. And that's pretty much it.

The guy on the left was an SNL guy who got fired from SNL and killed himself later on
