1994  
 
Depressed by the unsavory aspects of her most recent murder case, Kay Howard (Melissa Leo) takes a leave of absence and returns to her home town -- only to be promptly swept up into the investigation of a local environmentalist's death. Making things uncomfortably personal is the fact that Kay's former lover Chick (John Dossett) and her own brother Chris (Gareth Williams) are among the suspects. Back in Baltimore, Pembleton (Andre Braugher) and Felton (Daniel Baldwin) reluctantly team up to solve the murder that sent Kay packing, and Munch's (Richard Belzer) obstinacy puts another crimp in his purchase of the after-hours bar. Harlee McBride, real-life wife of series regular Richard Belzer, appears as Dr. Alyssa Dyer. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

1995  
 
In the first episode of a three-part story arc, Bolander (Ned Beatty), Howard (Melissa Leo), and Felton (Daniel Baldwin) are ambushed and shot down when attempting to serve a warrant. In his efforts to track down the suspect, Pembleton (Andre Braugher) is partnered with a detective who prefers to use a bizarre psychological approach to crime-solving, and is also given a helping hand by Bolander's former partner Mitch (Tony Lo Bianco). Complicating matters is the realization that the shooting might have been averted had it not been for a disastrous clerical error. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

No ideology gets a free pass in director Carey Corr's mockumentary-style skewing of modern politics. From the Christian right to the liberal left and virtually everything in between, this look at American voting habits is an equal opportunity offender. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

2007  
 
A husband and father whose life has become a tiresome routine learns the delicate difference between accident and destiny after getting caught up in nostalgia and watching as everything he has worked so hard to build comes crumbling down all around him. Peter (Seth Macari) has a well-paying job, a beautiful wife, and two adoring children, yet despite all of this he can't help but wonder what may have happened had he wandered a different path in life. Then one day, while surfing the internet, Peter comes across the webpage of Kelly (Kelli Nordhus), the younger sister of his first flame. Kelly has grown up to become quite the stunner, and it isn't long before she and Peter are experiencing all the thrills that new love has to offer. Now freed from the perceived pressures of his marriage and his high stress job, Peter begins to lose himself in meaningful conversations and long walks on the beach with the beautiful Kelly. But there's a serious downside to Peter's exciting new relationship, because before long he's completely lost sight of both his family and the demands of his job. As Peter's manipulative boss bears down on him and the young writers in the office begin to absorb the experiences that will one day comprise their own unique perspectives on the past, the crushing weight of responsibility offers a painful lesson in the true price of nostalgia. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
