#homicide: life on the street

[thebestestwinner]

One of the most deserved Emmy wins in history was Andre Braugher for his work as Det. Frank Pembleton on Homicide: Life on the Street. (That show alone is worth signing up for Peacock to watch.) He also won for his work on the mini-series Theif, and was nominated for his more recent, and also excellent work as Captain Holt on Brooklyn 99 (two iconic cops, two iconic shows, and that’s only skimming his career!). We lost a legend.

Since Homicide is an older show (and was not available on streaming for way too long), here’s a taste of his work on one of the best cop shows ever:

Law and Order Franchise? More like the John Munch Cinematic Universe

Reached "Have A Conscience" in my "Homicide" rewatch and... just...holy shit...the scene with Meldrick and Mike on Mike's boat.

I vaguely remembered this scene happened (but forgot where in Mike's arc it was) and i had definitely forgotten how intense it was. Just so amazingly acted (and written and directed). Right up there with the most powerful dramatic moments on the show.

we were not getting the munch crashouts in svu the way we were in homicide, and that's a god damn tragedy

a non-binding poll about which fanfic I should buckle down and finish out of my closet full of unfinished fic now that Yuletide is mostly done and dusted (note: some of these are more in progress than others, but all have at least been started so they're not new things I'll start and abandon okay) (also i reserve the right to be super inspired by something—e.g., something Agatha Harkness shaped—or whatever and let inspiration jump the line, but yeah i honestly love all of these stupid little stories i've started and am curious whether anyone would even read any of them were I to finish any of them):

okay I think those are the main options that I might realistically work on, but please do not think this is my full WsIP list or anything like that. p.s. feel free to ask any questions about these since poll word limits made the descriptions delightfully short and vibes-based.

update: I can't edit the poll, but it's obviously "John dies, Susan takes over." also apparently I can't see the results without voting so one vote for the first item is just me. voting for the first thing listed. so I can see the results on my own poll. not a real vote. okay. thank you for your attention.

Where’s the Homicide: Life on the Street fandom? Fan since 2006 and now watching again since it’s on Peacock! The best show

Also if you like this you’re free to message me I need to fangirl over my latest hyperfixation

Meldrick Lewis, to Frank Pembleton and Tim Bayliss, bickering back and forth:

"Ya'll two got a co-dependent relationship. You need to work on that."

Stanley Bolander, walking by: "When I was young, a co-dependent relationship was a good marriage."

Favorite TV shows of 2024. They're an eclectic bunch, but I stand by 'em. (Fargo is specifically season 5).
