Homicide: Life on the Street es una serie policial estadounidense acerca del trabajo de una unidad de homicidios en un departamento de Policía de Baltimore. Duró siete temporadas en la cadena NBC entre 1993 y 1999, y finalizó en el año 2000 con un telefilme. La serie está basada en el libro basado en hechos reales escrito por David Simon, Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets, y muchos de los personajes e historias utilizadas a lo largo del show estuvieron basadas en personas y eventos descritos en el libro (Simon también los usaría en su propia serie para HBO, The Wire). Aunque Homicide cuenta con un reparto coral, Andre Braugher (quien interpreta al Det. Frank Pembleton) emergería como la estrella de la serie.

How is this not on a streaming service yet? This began so many careers and so many franchises, have to see this piece of TV history!
One of my first TV shows ever. One of my own personal THE BEST TV shows ever. of course there's other, those days we have almost perfect stories so anybody can find its preferance. In whole world of TV shovs, there is genre, a line of shows with cops, crimefighters. NY PD Blue, The Wire, etc... but this one I call my favourite. There several reasons and since I'm also in this branch, maybe I see something deeper, such is main characters with foults, own problems, unhapiness. And big thing is that you may see here that world is not perfect. Cases of murder are not all solved. It takes lots of time and energa spent and all that in vain. White board in episodes can be see few times, and it has red (unsolved) and black (solved) cases. This is what makes this show more perfect, more realistic and my favourite.
This show was one of my favourite ever, and introcued me in the world of serial shows!!!
One of my favorite tv shows ever
Unable to watch this in 2024. Probably a good, genre-defining show back in its day, but it has not aged well.
