Homicide: Life on the Street is finally cleared for streaming.

David Simon, who executive produced the show and wrote the original book on which the show is based, announced on instagram on June 17 that NBC has finally procured the music rights to the show, and can now shop it to a streamer.

I can't wait.

Andre Braugher was amazing. One of my favorite actors ever.

It appears smiling was a felony back then as well.

I only watched the last season and didnā€™t ā€œgetā€ a couple of the characters and my friend whoā€™d been telling me to watch since the beginning was, you donā€™t understand, these characters have been evolving since it started. Canā€™t wait.

Is it about homeless police????

But please not on Peacock or Hulu! Not a pay one.

I did not know Yaphet Kotto was Jewish and a Trump supporter with ā€œQ Anon adjacentā€ beliefs. What a disappointment that he was MAGAt.

Daniel Baldwin was excellent in this show but sabotaged himself. The guy has problems, as do all the Baldwin men.

That's Reed Diamond, r8. He plays Detective Mike Kellerman starting in season four.

by Anonymousreply 17June 19, 2024 10:49 PM

R15 Yaphet Kotto was just nuts. He was also a Cameroonian prince, had an IQ of 190, and had been abducted by aliens.

Reed Diamond was a slender, sexy fox.

He was great on Joss Whedonā€™s Dollhouse.

Meldrick was only on one episode of Law and Order SVU. I thought heā€™d been a regular for a year or so. Mandela effect.

Loved this show! So glad itā€™s coming to steaming. FINALLY!

The arabber episode (directed by Casino Royale's Martin Campbell) is justifiably legendary.

It is as tense and brutal as anything from the so-called "Golden Age" of television.

And Pauline Kael was right when she claimed that Braugher's performance as Pembleton was as good as the best acting in the movies.

The show did lose something each time it tried to repackage itself as slicker, especially letting go of Melissa Leo.

The absolute best and maybe most surprising line delivered by one of the Homicide actors

ā€œI used to own a bar in Baltimoreā€

Fixed.

Anyone else remember the crossover episode with The X Files?

by Anonymousreply 27June 20, 2024 5:24 PM

Itā€™s on TNT all the damned time, R6. Better spring for cable.

Charmed sucks. I never watched it when it first aired and I've tried to watch a few episodes since it's on Pluto but I can't make it through a whole episode.

Itā€™s good really good but Baltimore police and crime has been done better

by Anonymousreply 30June 20, 2024 8:57 PM

"Three Men and Adena" was powerful stuff. I also remember the season 3 multi-episode arc where three of the detectives (Leo, Baldwin, Beatty) are shot and injured on the job. Co-starring Steve Buscemi!

I think Munch has a record for appearing in the most shows as a single character. I remember reading that once.

Munch was a great character

I can never decide whether I think Reed Diamond is handsome or not.

He's almost alien, r34

"The Subway" was a great episode which Vince Gilligan ripped off for diminishing returns in the Bryan Cranston episode of "The X-Files".

Even the fact that the victim was a bigoted jerk.

Braugher and Vincent D'Onofrio were just superb.

I also liked the episode wth Lucinda Jenney as the killer with a personality disorder and whose interrogation prompts a religious re-evaluation from Pembleton.

The best episodes of the series were like a great one-act play that just happened to be on network television.

Pamela Wilgis was the killer's name. Pamela Payton-Wright, better known as Addie, Dorian's sister on OLTL, played the nun, whose name I don't recall.

It was all about the angles with him, R34. If the camera caught how close together his eyes actually are, it was all over. Otherwise, he was handsome.

Kyle Secor was nerdy hot. Bayliss came out as bi in a later season, and it actually made sense as a character move. Remember the episode where he went on a date with Peter Gallagher?

I sure do!

The actor Michael Balducci played the character Jimmy Berluti on 4 different tv shows. Is he tied with Munch for number of tv shows or is Munch the winner?
