On the Streams

Wow as we get ready to say bye bye to summer and hello fall, there a bunch of New Options on Streaming Platforms every where.

From our Digital Trends friends; “Before he went on to create,The Wire— another all-time great crime series — David Simon pushed network television to its limits with Homicide; Life on the Streets ; The show broke all of the rules in the 1990s by staying away from the traditional formula for cop shows. There weren’t always perfectly resolved cases, and the pressure of solving these crimes was taxing for the main characters on spiritual and mental levels.

The cast’s performances were simply incredible, especially the late Andre Braugher and Richard Belzer. This series actually shares continuity with Dick Wolf’s Law & Order franchise, as Belzer’s John Munch had a starring role on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. But as a standalone series, Homicide is impeccable. This is the first time Homicide has been on streaming, and it deserves to be rediscovered by audiences.” Enjoy it Streaming NOW.

Then there’s BAD MONKEY. “Ted Lasso co-creator Bill Lawrence adapted Carl Hiaasen’s Bad Monkey for Apple TV+, and the name is a bit of a misnomer. There is a monkey, who isn’t particularly bad … and he doesn’t even belong to the main character. Instead, the story focuses on Andrew Yancy (Vince Vaughn), an ex-cop from Miami whose career has seen him sink from detective to restaurant inspector.

But when a severed arm shows up without the rest of the body, Yancy is roped into the investigation that exposes the seamy side of life in Florida. And when Yancy learns who the arm belongs to, it opens up a completely different set of questions about who committed the crime and why.” Iy is also NOW STREAMING on Apple + TV.

 Last but certainly not least, A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder (2024)

“Who murdered Andie (India Lillie Davies)? That’s a question that’s haunted Pippa Fitz-Amobi (Wednesday’s Emma Myers) in A Good Girl’s Guide To Murder. Even with university life beckoning Pippa during her last year in high school, she can’t let go of her theory that Andi wasn’t killed by her late boyfriend, Sal Singh (Rahul Pattni).

To prove herself, Pippa plans to solve the murder and use it as her school project for the year. This manages to anger a lot of people in Pippa’s hometown who would rather not dig up the secrets that she’s getting uncomfortably close to. Pippa’s seen a lot of detectives on TV, and they may not have been the best role models for her as she soon finds herself in genuine danger.”
