You can stream Prime Suspect (2011) on Peacock with a subscription.

Detective Jane Timoney finds that being a homicide detective in New York City is tough enough and having to contend with a male-dominated police department to get respect makes it that much tougher. She's an outsider who has just transferred to a new precinct dominated by an impenetrable clique of a boys' club. Timoney has her own vices too – with a questionable past – and she tends to be forceful, rude and reckless. But she's also a brilliant cop who keeps her eye on one thing: the prime suspect.

Cold, claustrophobic tension permeates every corner of a New York precinct where gender politics run as deep as the crime scenes. This sharp procedural pits a determined outsider against an impenetrable brotherhood of detectives determined to keep her in her place.
