Pictures: Where are the 'Homicide' stars now?
For seven years on NBC, "Homicide: Life on the Street" chronicled the frustrations (and occasional triumphs) of a fictional homicide squad struggling to keep Baltimore's streets as safe as possible. Based on a book by former Baltimore Sun reporter David Simon and produced by Baltimore native Barry Levinson, the series, although never a big-time ratings success, was television drama at its finest: carefully written, craftily acted and riveting without being flashy. Here's a look at what some of the "Homicide" alumni have been doing since the show went off the air for good in 1999.

Andre Braugher
Andre Braugher's aggressively cerebral Frank Pembleton served as the emotional core of 'Homicide' for its first six seasons; in 1998, he won a well-deserved Emmy for his work. Braugher, 48, has stayed plenty busy since "Homicide" went off the air, winning a second Emmy (in 2006, for the movie "Thief"), serving as the doomed captain of a soon-to-be-upside-down passenger ship in 2006's "Poseidon" and starring in a trio of TV series: playing a doctor in "Gideon's Crossing" (2000-2001), a cab driver in "Hack" (2002-2004) and (above) one of the "Men of a Certain Age" (2009-present).

Thanks for the Kyle eye candy, but true Kylephiles have already seen that promo shot and many more from when he was in "Commander in Chief." That plus no Reed Diamond eye candy rates this feature two stars at best.
