On Mariska by Stephanie March Stephanie March here. You may (or may not) remember me as the spectacle clad ADA Cabot who never won a case. With a team of 12 writers behind me I still couldn’t do it. Those are some mediocre prosecutorial skills if I ever saw ‘em. Anyway, Mariska and I have always had a connection-right from the very beginning, from the very first day, and I am honored to be given a spot to gab on her site.
Mariska and I are two sides of the same coin. Honestly. We are each other’s perfect opposite, perfect compliment, perfect foil. She is funny, I am only sort of funny. She is sexy and dark, I am silly and blonde. She is a force of nature, I am a good sounding board. She is drums and lead guitar, I am bass and the occassional symbol. (Actually, I have no rhythm to speak of). She is chili, I am honey. Our birthdays are each other’s half birthdays. So on and so forth. We were meant to meet, and we were meant to be friends. It’s a good on-camera match for two such people, but the real fortune is the off-camera friendship we formed and have maintained since my departure from SVU.
I am about to start rehearsals for a play on Broadway, called TALK RADIO, with none other than Peter Hermann. Funny thing about Peter and I-everytime we work together something good happens to Mariska. You may remember that “Trevor Langdon” was brought on to SVU as a defense attorney and Cabot’s erstwhile love interest. As it turns out, he had the hots for Benson. Trevor and I wear glasses. Trevor and I like to read. Trevor and I are tall. Trevor and I adore Olivia.
Live imitates art. (PS. Never let anyone call television “art” again. It’s obnoxious)
Sincerly,
Stephanie (Peaches to some)
