HOMICIDE: LIFE ON THE STREET (DVD), A&E
"Simply the best one hour on television." -- The Wall Street Journal
One of the most critically acclaimed shows in history, HOMICIDE: LIFE ON THE STREET re-invigorated a tired genre by focusing on the grueling work of solving murders instead of an endless succession of bloody crimes and car chases.
Inspired by David Simon's Edgar Award® winning account of Baltimore homicide detectives and brought to television by director Barry Levinson (Rain Man, OZ) and writers Paul Attanasio (Gideon's Crossing) and Tom Fontana, HOMICIDE boasted a powerhouse cast featuring Ned Beatty (Network, Deliverance), Yaphet Kotto (Alien) Richard Belzer (Law & Order: SVU), and breakout star Andre Braugher (Frequency). The critical response was overwhelming: HOMICIDE won multiple Emmy® and Writer's Guild of America® Awards and is one of just two shows in history to claim three Peabody® Awards.
Now, HOMICIDE debuts on DVD with this collector's set featuring all 13 episodes from the first two seasons, in order of sequence in which Barry Levenson intended the show to air!
