help Cold Case FAQ

Why does each Cold Case episode use music from a particular era?

Most investigations concern a death from a specific year, so the soundtrack uses songs associated with that period. The closing montage commonly pairs one of those songs with the victim appearing to Lilly Rush.

Is Cold Case connected to the Cold Case Files documentary series?

No, Cold Case is a scripted CBS police drama starring Kathryn Morris as Philadelphia detective Lilly Rush. Cold Case Files is a true-crime documentary franchise associated with A&E.

Does Cold Case solve a different murder in every episode?

Most episodes reopen and resolve one old homicide, although some investigations continue across multiple episodes. Flashbacks show the same suspects and victim at different ages as new testimony changes the case.

Why has Cold Case been difficult to release on disc or streaming?

The series uses many licensed recordings from artists such as Bruce Springsteen, Nirvana and U2 rather than relying only on background score. Clearing that large music catalog has often been cited as a complication for home-media distribution.
