“Homicide” writer/producer David Simon posted on X (the social media platform formerly known as Twitter) that the show may finally be headed to streaming soon. The show is most likely to head to Peacock, but its rights may be licensed to a third-party platform.

David Simon (https://www.reddit.com/r/TheWire/comments/1dibyga/david_simon_provides_update_on_homicide_life_on/): NBC has secured Homicide: Life On The Streets music rights (https://www.thebaltimorebanner.com/opinion/column/david-simon-homicide-life-on-the-street-NR7J2JVQLVG5LPW54DJV5MDBHA/), paving the way for its streaming debut.

Homicide: Life on the Street officially headed to streaming (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/homicide-life-on-the-street-streaming-peacock-1235953551/#:~:text=Starting%20Aug.,for%20HD%20and%204K%20viewing.)

Starting Aug. 19, Peacock will feature Homicide: Life on the Street. All seven seasons and 122 episodes of the former NBC show, as well as the series-wrapping Homicide: The Movie from 2000, will be available, remastered for HD and 4K viewing.

Homicide: Life on the Street's remastering looks good, but something is lost in the transition from square-shaped aspect ratio to widescreen. (https://slate.com/culture/2024/08/homicide-life-on-the-street-streaming-tv-show-peacock-andre-braugher-remastered.html)
