Diehard fans boiled it down to initials: H:LotS was TBDSoTV (The Best Damn Show on Television). As gritty as its Baltimore environs and as messy as the murders dumped on its detectives, the one-hour drama hit its stride from the moment it debuted on NBC in 1993. With Baltimore auteur Barry Levinson serving as executive producer, Homicide mustered a superb ensemble cast: Andre Braugher as the intensely introspective Pembleton; Ned Beatty as blustery Bolander; Richard Belzer as wisecracking Munch; and Yaphet Kotto as Lt. Al "Gee" Giardello, the squad's chief and moral compass. Many of the show's scripts are based on actual Baltimore cases chronicled in David Simon's book Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets. But even tales drawn from the producers' imaginations smack painfully of real life. Partners routinely bicker and banter while sifting through clues left in disturbing bits of flesh, skull, and intestine. Episodes rarely wrap up neatly, which may help explain why Homicide never killed in the ratings. But the show, now stripped of commercials, plays magnificently on DVD, where you can delve deeply into complex characters and convoluted story lines. Smart episode commentary by the show's creators and interviews with Levinson, David Simon and Tom Fontana only add to this set's considerable charms. Barnes & Noble
