god DAMN this show is amazing. It's witty, it's Baltimore, Munch is there! Idk just felt like saying smth...

Anyone else bothered when a detective grabs an eraser or marker and makes a change to the board and now there’s different hand writing on the board? Or I just started season 6 and some dude is doing all the writing and his hand writing is different.

Where’s Naomi!?

I’m just starting season 6 and I like Gharty. He feels to me like he’s shaking things up. I watched this back in the 90s as it aired and I liked him then too. He reminded me of the earlier season detectives, not pretty, rough around the edges. I like the back story of him being a bit of a coward and lazy ass. I like his dynamic with Ballard. I feel like he was brought in to balance out a few of the newer, prettier faces.

Anyone know the real life reason for the gas leak and change of main set? Thx!

Rewatching the movie (I have only ever been able to watch twice before) and that SCENE. Jason Priestley, the homeless dude, Gheraty, the interrogation. JP's character checking his hair in the mirror. The homeless dude and JP fighting and Gheraty trying to break it up. Frank and Tim standing there watching before they go break it up. The obvious tension with Frank and Tim while the fight rages in the background. The homeless dude taking on Geraty and JP at the same time and WINNING. And me....getting teary eyed just seeing Frank and Tim together again (which is the main reason I hate rewatching this one, knowing what's coming).

"I'm jonesing for a Hershey bar, you got a dollar?"

Based on the feedback recently, I was wavering about rewatching the show. I watched the show sporadically in the 90’s as it aired, then a full series watch in 2006, & then again in 2013. I love this show… I was so happy to hear it’d be finally streaming. I’m giddy watching the first episode…the opening music, the cast of characters. I hope I can pull myself away to get a good nights sleep tonight. It’s like coming back to family.

The next few days,…weeks will be shot.

A prequel series with Giardello as a Rookie Detective....maybe played by someone like Alds Hodges

Or

A sequel series based around one or both of Frank's children now being Detectives in Baltimore?

And maybe bring back Lewis as Captain of the Homicide Dpt or another character from the original show. And bring back Bayliss who's now retried but serves as a Confidant to the Frank kid/s when they need help on a case or stuck. Because Frank has passed on.

This helped me figure out what song had been replaced with a filler tune at the end of “A Case of Do or Die” Season 7, ep 14! Maybe it will help you too. Even more Web 1.0 than Bayliss’s Buddhist bisexuality website!

Every time Bayliss goes down a line of questioning that Pembleton thinks isn’t going to go to lead to anything he keeps saying how cold he feels in the room.

Really shows how they tried everything to maintain the intensity of the room to intimidate the suspect.

Notification from the vet about the cats. 😀(FYI, they’re not overdue, that’s the standard message. They’re fine.)

Always wondered- since Frank is from NYC-and Bruusher himself was from Chicago-why did he have the occasional souther drael? ‘It’s a laah. It’s a damned laah. ‘

I’ve been rewatching the show since it came out on Peacock. Enjoying it so much.

But I’ve been just dragging through Season 7. It’s like a completely different show. The characters have new personalities, the plot lines are unbelievable, and some episodes are just dull. I remember losing interest in the show toward the end on its first run but forgot how much it changed from what made it so good.

I suppose it’s more of a shock now because I’ve seen so many high quality series in the years since Homicide LOTS became one of the trendsetters

The first scene with Captain Holt in Brooklyn 99 was just the best. I did not realize how much the first impression of Holt would remind me of Pembleton. New watcher so not sure how much his character will change on Brooklyn 99, but what a joy to see Pembleton again for a few seconds, especially in a captains uniform.

Really wish I had paid attention to Andre Braugher when he was alive. What a talent. I started Brooklyn 99, because I loved him so much in Homicide and wanted to see more of him.

Can we discuss how perfect this episode was?! Elijah Wood as the evil kid eating one snow pea and getting his chopsticks smacked away by Bayliss was *chef’s kiss.

It's there! I've been checking daily (I've been obsessed with this show since I was a child...no reason to quit that obsessive behavior now 😄), and the movie is up also.

It's showing as 6 seasons, but they must have combined a season because it looks like the episodes are all indeed there.

Can't wait to start my umpteenth binge! 🤩

I dont know if this is a Peacock issue across shows or not but the amount of times that [indistinct] pops up in the subtitles when the words are clear.

Its quite humorous

A Turkey Day staple for me.

A few things I like:

-The victim who's not quite dead, which unsettles even Pembleton ("Get out of my blood!").

-The thematic harmony between the perfectly innocent private lives of Erica Chilton and Zeke Lafeld, and how the judgmental attitudes of others seals their fates (one mark of the show's greatness is how much of an impression even the unseen characters leave).

-The wry contrast between Kellerman's loneliness at being away from his family on the holiday, and Lewis's saucy hunt for "somethin' juicy" to fill the day with.

-Terry O'Quinn's powerful turn as Zeke's father (a nice get for the show; O'Quinn was a MD resident at the time).

-It's base of me, but the abuse and general disrespect the detectives show to the Nazis never fails to amuse me.

In retrospect, should have been introduced as a homicide detective, especially after Melissa Leo left the series. It would have been a perfect fit for the show rather than have Cox be a medical Examiner who spent an inordinate amount of time visiting the Homicide unit

For those of us without Peacock, i got this offer fed to me on Reddit. Kinda scared to do a rewatch in the new color scheme and music but it's nice to have it on demand vs on disc.

Was portrayed to be a homosexual gangster without that inference ever being as spelled out, or was the role by Eric Todd Dellums sexuality ambiguous?

I know certain songs have already been used for certain characters and scenes, but what songs do you think could be used to define each character on the show, like a sort of theme song?

Could be from the 90s to fit the times or a contemporary tune

Rewatching the fourth season I noticed how drastically munch and Howard were reduced in screen time and charcter development. The show really feels as if it's lead by Braugher and Secor unlike the past seasons or the ones to follow. I'm on the 6th episode called " Hate Crimes " and while it's a fairly standard episode i was struck by a line a never paid too much attention to by frank. Frank and Tim have a disagreement about the sexuality of the victim and tim goes as far as to pull a kid who was handcuffed to the side and ask frank " what if one day you're kid came home and said hey dad this is my "..... to which frank said " I would hope if a homcide detective came to my door that unlike the victims father. I hope I would not be relieved my child is dead ". Everytime I rewatch this show I find something new or a line hits me the second or third time.

Barnfather makes me happy that Orlando (on The Wire) got gunned down. That smug asshole is in sufferable

With “H:LotS” having a resurgence, I figured I’d share what has to be the weirdest crossover associated with the show.

Back in the summer of 1996, Bayliss and Pembleton appeared in issue 33 of the comic book “Cable”. Though neither character's last name is mentioned, they do identify themselves as members of the Baltimore Police Department and give their first names as "Frank" and "Tim."

Never seen this pointed out or mentioned before. Anyone else remember seeing this?

I sent it to Kyle Secor and he was surprised to see it!

In One of the Law and Order crossover episodes, Benjamin Bratt’s character is explaining why he doesn’t worry about the size of his cop salary, because his wife is a Native American . In the original, he says “my wife is a Pequot” and then goes on to explain about the income the tribe takes in from their casinos. In the streaming version, there is no explanation – he just says “my wife is a Pequot”, and it stops there.

Who has noticed other instances of altered or edited dialogue??
