A family of law enforcement professionals must put aside personal tensions and professional rivalries when they become entangled in a deadly conspiracy.
"Line of Fire," NBC's new procedural crime drama premiering in September 2026, represents an ambitious attempt to refresh the traditional format with a foray into serialized thriller territory. Created by Joshua Safran and produced by Universal Television, the series centers on the Hollingsworth family, whose members work across various federal agencies, portrayed by a cast led by Peter Krause and Hope Davis. While tackling weekly cases, the heart of the show is its dysfunctional family drama, enriched by a serial mystery involving a son believed to be dead.
Despite a start deemed imperfect by some reviews, the combination of procedural elements, complex family dynamics, and a broader conspiratorial plot has earned the series a highly positive initial critical reception, hinting at strong potential for the future of traditional programming.
