Night Court revival

But credit the Charge! action channel for rerunning nine straight hours of HOMICIDE on Thursdays.

Hmm, I thought that was more a drama series than an action series.

Usually so. There was extra-suspenseful action during the sixth season in particular. Charge! is cop-heavy in their lineup, and they decided to get the second-best cop show ever IMO with HOMICIDE.

There are a lot of free over-the-air channels out there you never knew existed. They don't have original programming (although ION now airs WNBA and NWSL games on a regular basis), but they sure love showing entire blocks of Without a Trace, CSI: Miami, NCIS: New Orleans, Cold Case, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Blue Bloods, Hawaii FIve-0, The Closer, Chicago Fire and Chicago PD all day every day.

And where else are you going to get all those ads about buying gold, Eric McCormack pleading with you to donate to ASPCA to save animals, and Tom Selleck pitching reverse mortgages?

Where minimal variation goes to thrive. Long ago they ran BOSTON LEGAL, but since it lacked sufficient cops.

There's one here that shows nothing but multi hour blocs of Maury, Springer & a female Ninja Turtle. Of the 38 channels I get when I scan, 50% are garbage or pixelate. PBS gets most of my attention now.

You'll also notice they're not reviving or remaking ST. ELSEWHERE or HILL STREET, though it could be fun to see future HBO versions of those.

An HBO version of Hill St would probably look a lot like "the Wire."
