Hope Davis is in NBC’s Line of Fire, which premieres Monday at 10 p.m. The series centers on a family in law enforcement, with Davis playing the mother and Peter Krause as the father.

The setup is tighter than a standard crime drama: the whole family works in law enforcement, and the household includes a daughter and two sons. That gives the show a single working unit instead of separate procedural lanes, with every case landing inside the same family tree.
After a killer targets members of law enforcement, the family has to pool its expertise to figure out what happened. In practical terms, that means the series is built around shared knowledge inside one household, not a lone investigator carrying the load.
Hope Davis and Peter Krause
Davis and Krause anchor the parents in the cast, which is the clearest draw for viewers deciding whether to sample a new network drama on Monday night. Because the story turns on parents and children working from different parts of the same system, the show has to balance family dynamics with casework from the first hour.
The law-enforcement angle also gives the series a built-in complication: the family already knows the system, but the killer forces them to use that knowledge under pressure. That is a cleaner hook than a generic police setup, and it puts the family relationship at the center of the investigation rather than treating it as background noise.
Monday at 10 p.m.
Line of Fire lands in a week of television that also includes other releases later in the schedule, but this one is the earliest clear start point. For viewers who want the new NBC drama, the instruction is simple: tune in Monday at 10 p.m. and watch how Davis and Krause’s family handles a case that is already inside their own professional world.
