It’s official: Homicide: Life on the Street is coming to Peacock.

David Simon — who wrote the book on which the series is based — teased in June that the police drama was going to end up on a streamer. “Word is that NBC has managed to finally secure the music rights necessary to sell Homicide: Life On The Streets to a streaming platform,” he wrote on X.

All seven seasons of the series and Homicide: The Movie, which has been remastered to HD and 4K, will drop August 19 on Peacock.

From Universal TV, Homicide: Life on the Street followed the detective work of the homicide department in Baltimore. It originally launched on NBC in 1993 and ran for a total of 122 episodes.

The series was created by Paul Attanasio; Tom Fontana was the series head writer and showrunner. It starred Andre Braugher, Ned Beatty, Richard Belzer, Yaphet Kotto, Melissa Leo, Giancarlo Esposito, Daniel Baldwin, Jon Polito, Clark Johnson, Kyle Secor, Reed Diamond, Michelle Forbes, Peter Gerety, Isabella Hofmann, Toni Lewis, Michael Michele, Max Perlich, Jon Seda and Callie Thorn.

The series is distributed by NBCUniversal Global TV Distribution in the U.S. and by Fremantle internationally.

I have the DVDs but I'm so psyched about this. Mark your calendars!

Any word on an updated physical release?

No. Shout Factory has the DVD rights and that old set is still in print. I won't claim never, but I think it's doubtful any boutique label like Shout would want to spring the $$$ to produce new HD/4K discs. It would be expensive and I don't think they can get back their ROI. Dropping it on Peacock is more efficient.

Noticed this is out on Peacock. Watched the first season (or two?) way back during Netflix DVDs days but that's as far as I got. I think they stopped carrying it or something. Enjoyed it and have been wanting to see the whole thing for years.

I saw on reddit that there's been a lot of music changes and substitutions for the streaming release.

That's always a bummer to hear but I guess since I'm not familiar with the original music it won't bug me too much.
