There is good news on many fronts, but one of the most significant developments is Homicide: Life on the Street finally coming to streaming!
This critically acclaimed series has been asked for many times, and its release on Peacock gives us hope that more cherished work that is now unavailable might get the same treatment.

One of the most revered police dramas of all time, Homicide: Life on the Street, examines the calculating and exacting detective work of Baltimore’s often confrontational, passionate, and opinionated homicide department.
With a determined cast of characters that never let up in their quest for truth and justice, this gripping hourlong series remains the standard bearer of how police handle the job both professionally and personally.
Just check out this all-star cast, too.
Andre Braugher, Ned Beatty, Richard Belzer, Yaphet Kotto, Melissa Leo, Giancarlo Esposito, Daniel Baldwin, Jon Polito, Clark Johnson, Kyle Secor, Reed Diamond, Michelle Forbes, Peter Gerety, Isabella Hofmann, Toni Lewis, Michael Michele, Max Perlich, Jon Seda, and Callie Thorn.
From Universal Television, Homicide: Life on the Street originally launched on NBC in 1993 and ran for seven seasons, for a total of 122 episodes.

It was succeeded by Homicide: The Movie in 2000, which served as the series finale, which will also be available on Peacock.
The series was created by Paul Attanasio and based on David Simon’s book “Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets.”
Tom Fontana was the series head writer and showrunner.
Throughout its run, Homicide: Life on the Street was critically acclaimed, receiving nominations and accolades from the Television Critics Association, Directors Guild of America, NAACP, and Writers Guild of America, among others.
The series also won four Primetime Emmy Awards and became the first drama ever to win three George Foster Peabody Awards for Drama.

Homicide: Life on the Street, Season 6 Episode 7, is one example of why this show needs to be seen. Starring Vincent D’Onofrio in a guest-starring role, “The Subway” leaves an impact that lasts well beyond any expiration date.
For an episode of TV that originally aired in December 1997 to still resonate today is a testament to the storytelling power of this series.
So why has it been unavailable via streaming until now?
We’re not going to worry about it anymore.
All seven seasons and the movie wrap-up come to Peacock on August 19, and that’s all that matters to ensure a new generation of viewers experiences it.
