A pessimist! I would say this is probably somewhat true, but what about NYPD Blue/Hill Street Blues/Cagney and Lacey? Or is the style coupled with the content just tooooooo much for the GP with _Homicide_? I think that people are more willing to accept a more mainstream style regardless of the content than experimental (more artsy) styles. _Twin Peaks_ also comes to mind--but even its style was not as "in your face" as _Homicide_.
