Because I’ve been rewatching clips from The Wire, The Shield, and The Sopranos. Homicide was an interesting show that had overarching stories mixed with episode-by-episode stories. The show was never as popular as Law and Order, but both shows share a universe connection. Both shows had crossovers episodes, and Detective Munch is the same character from Homicide and SVU.
In a lot of ways, Homicide was the unofficial father show for both The Wire and The Shield, as many guest stars showed up on both.
There were so many future/current actors in this show that you couldn’t list them all. I loved the Robin Williams episode, and I had forgotten that Doogie Howser (NPH) himself showed up in one episode. There was even an episode with Chris Rock
The show lasted seven seasons and ended in a satisfying movie.
Side Note: Before the network was known for True Crime type shows, Lifetime would show reruns of the show back in the 90s. I find that amusing because that network was aimed at women...white women.
