StorylineNathaniel "Cornbread" Hamilton was the black urban dream and a hero to youngsters Wilford Robinson and Earl Carter. Shortly before he would have become the first man from his community to go to college, he demonstrates his scholarship-winning running ability to his friends and admirers in the neighborhood. At the same time, the police are on a manhunt for an armed rapist. They mistake Cornbread for the rapist and shoot him dead in the street. In the aftermath of the community's shattered dream, and in the face of an intimidating police cover-up, Wilford is determined not to betray the memory of his hero.Link to soundtrack reviewThe Blackbyrds - Cornbread, Earl and Me (1975)

The move brings Wolf back to CBS nearly 30 years after they worked together on Law & Order. After Fox originally ordered the series, and then scrapped that order, CBS ordered a new pilot for Law & Order in 1988. However, the project did not move forward and ultimately ended up at NBC, where Wolf's CBS pilot episode aired as the sixth episode of the Emmy-winning series.
Speaking with THR earlier this summer, Greenblatt said that he hoped to have a streaming deal for the library before the show returned, confirming that conversations with Netflix and Hulu were underway at the time. 2ff7e9595c
