In S6:E8, I knew a face was very familiar but I thought it was Kristen Johnston from 3rd Rock from the Sun, which kinda confused me with the timing.
Turns out it was Rhea Seehorn, who I know* from Plur1bus, in one of her first roles.

For several months now I put off watching what is literally and figuratively the most gut wrenching episode of the series, and in all of television that I've ever seen or know about: S6:E7, The Subway.
It's a tough watch, in every way, with an ending that is so simple, so profound, so deeply moving.
Vincent D'Onofrio gives a great performance as a most unsympathetic character for whom sympathy is deserved, and given.

Homicide: Life on the Street S6:E6, Birthday has one of the saddest moments of the whole series.
It's another episode that helped blaze a trail in addressing societal problems, this time the issue of victim blaming.
The character of Grace Rivera, played by Allison Foland, is appealing and lost, making her ending that much more heartbreaking.
I think it's the most decent Falsone is throughout the series (but I still hate him, and Kellerman).
Homicide: Life on the Street S5:E22, Strangers and Other Partners Part 1
I'd forgotten this Beau Felton arc and how it took us back to the beginnings of the series to end that arc while starting its final arc by introducing new characters who would have much of the focus through the series' end.
The final rooftop scene with Pembleton and Bayliss is still better than what's in network television almost 30 years later.

I took a break from rewatching Homicide: Life on the Street to give my brain a break from the intensity, and because I'm almost done with season 5 and there only two more seasons left, my least favorite, though there are some excellent episodes left.
The episode I watched tonight was S5:E18, Double Blind, which peels another layer of the Bayliss, done by Pembleton, of course.
"I love this show.", seriously though.

Homicide: Life on the Street, currently streaming on Peacock, holds up too well in the relevance of its subject matter.
Season 5 opens with a depiction of the horror and trauma of a school shooting, which aired before Columbine (not the first major school shooting, I know).
Another example of the show covering a timely topic then that's sadly still as relevant now, about 30 years later.
Pembleton's return to work to start season 5 doesn't mirror my recovery from paraplegia, but his insistence on doing for himself is similar to my need to not be physically dependent on others, which helped me a lot during my early physical rehabilitation.
He is the fictional character most like me, in terms of his more negative characteristics (anger, arrogance, stubbornness, pride, etc.)
I forgot that it came so soon in the series, the last episode of season 4, but the decision to have Francis (Frank) Xavier Pembleton get hit by a stroke is one I'll never forget or forgive.
The show took the most complex Black male character in all of U.S. television history and ultimately sidelined him, for no good reason.
There were better ways to take him off the show, especially as a new father.
True serendipity strikes me again: As I'm working my way through my first ever full rewatch of Homicide: Life on the Street, tonight's episode is number 17 of season 4, where the main guest character works for the NSA.
At 33:35, as he's talking with Pembleton and Bayliss while they wander through the Baltimore aquarium, after Bayliss says, "...the Cold War's over...", the Laumer character replies, "The war ain't over, it's only halftime."
This aired 1996.
I just finished watching Season 3, Episode 19, titled "Colors".
As with many previous episodes, and others yet to come, Homicide: Life on the Street was ahead of its time as a show about our national attitudes on race, policing, and crime in the U.S.
So many of the issues the show covered 30 years ago are exactly as relevant and unresolved now, as then.
"How much time do you want for your progress?"
"How long? Too long."
Nothing's changed.
"Homicide: Life on the Street," was a game-changing television show when it launched in 1993. It was completely different to the formulaic police procedurals of the time, shot on handheld cameras, with no clear good or bad guys and a gritty approach to storytelling and visual style. It was loved by critics and discerning fans, but suffered from low ratings and network interference, though it still ran for seven seasons. Due to conflicts over music rights and the cost of adapting it to HD/4K, it went into TV purgatory, but now all 122 episodes and the movie are back on Peacock. For @TheConversationUS, media studies expert Summit Osur talks about how the show set the template for Peak TV.

Fundamentally, it's not a show about police or policing, but human nature.
There are no heroes, and few villains.
Apparently they haven't included the crossover episodes with Law & Order because, sadly, but there will be a 4K version "soon" (this release is an HD upgrade.
"I was drinking. I was drinking."
"i was drinking"
I didn't start watching the show until sometime in season 3, and given the nature of network television in the 20th century, I may have missed several of the episodes before then, even in reruns and when they were last available for viewing.
I have seen the first episode before, and just rewatching it now proves my memory of the series as excellent holds up.

For the first time, I think, all episodes of the NBC series, Homicide, are available to stream, on Peacock, including the movie!
It's best in the middle seasons, and has a strong ending, but I recommend watching it all.
It has the most complex two lead characters I've ever seen on network television, and is filled throughout with episodes and moments that are phenomenal, if sometimes tough.
