Homicide: Life on the Street

Homicide: Life on the Street aired on NBC from January 1993 through May 1999 and included 122 episodes over 7 seasons. A made-for-television movie based on the series aired in February 2000.

Shot entirely in the Baltimore area, the series was about closing cases; the crime itself was rarely shown. The series and some of the characters was based on the novel Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets by David Simon.
