"‘Homicide’ Is One of the Best TV Shows Ever. And It Is Finally Streaming"
Written by David Simon, who brought us The Wire, along with a host of other great stuff.
Streaming on Peacock. This is a big get for the service and a natural fit (an NBC show).
The article below is a gift article, should work, at least in the US.

@davemark pale imitation of the real “Homicide” 😂
@davemark Homicide was an Australian TV crime show that ran from 1964 until 1977. It was the first major locally made drama and a lot of episodes were based on real cases.
Whilst ground breaking at the time, in that episode the car being chased changed to a different model during the chase!

One of their police crime shows in the 70s was called Bluey - nothing to do with the cartoon dog
In the 90s a comedy show took select episodes and redubbed them with new dialogue and called it Bargearse. Most of them are up on YouTube now - hilarious
Lots of good crime shows, this gives you a few to start with along with trailers
Mystery Road, Rake and Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries are all good
Blue Heelers was hugely popular but 12 years of episodes is a bit of a commitment
