Any Homicide: Life on the Street fans?
I was just checking out the DVDs on Amazon and was shocked to find the entire series (Seasons 1-7) for only $270, and the TV movie that came out a few years later was only $10.

Damn, I wish I had some money.

1. Yeah I thought it was a good show.
Didn't see the tv movie though, was it any good?

4. Good, but featured every character ever on the show.
Not a bad thing normally, but given the length of the movie, it kind of cluttered things. However, it was still well done, and I recommend it because it ends very fittingly.

2. Wonderful series
TNT ran an episode to complement the Law and Order episode where those characters went to Baltimore to fetch a suspect and met up with the Homicide characters.

It reminded me of what a good series Homicide was. But unfortunately, that episode was a one-off, and it's not on the regular schedule. :-(

5. I'm trying to create a TV show with a similar overall feel to Homicide.
However, several elements are different, and I picture the execution to be as unique as Homicide was in its own way. Hopefully I can sell the concept to a network one of these days.

7. Thanks!
:hi:

I hope to approach their level of character development. Of course, matching it would be better.
