Currently revisiting Miami Vice. Terrible acting, highly questionable wardrobe, tremendous vehicles and of course the master stroke of including the music of the time.


The acting is generally decent IMO. the main issue is Philip Michael Thomas's 'Jamaican' accent. It's absolutely dire. Who let him go undercover as a Jamaican? Both in and out of universe!

Other than that it's a stylish well judged detective show, by and large. It does go off the cliff a bit in season 3 with the episode 'missing hours' where James Brown is a peanut butter obsessed alien, and Trudy gets abducted... But then it comes back with the 2 parter 'Mirror Image' where Crockett gets amnesia and believes he's actually his undercover drug dealer alter ego Sonny Burnett. It may strain credulity, but it's freaking awesome to see Don Johnson play a ruthless ice cold bad guy.

Edward James Olmos has definitely perfected the gruff unemotional captain, and some of the more consequential story elements with respect to Zweitek and Zito are heartbreaking. And Gina and Trudy are generally quite easy on the eye, as well as actually providing a lot of the dramatic weight.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

If you're a Don Johnson fan you might like The Long Hot Summer.

Seemed odd to me that they'd buy the rights to it and then make something that was nothing like the books.

Odd?
We could probably have a whole thread on original worked butchered and mutilated and characters miscast/altered by the PC/woke brigade
