This week on Miami Vice: Giddy up! Vice gets caught up in the middle of a Cold War battle of frozen bull semen between a cowboy, a bumbling fed (Harry Shearer) and Cuban spy in this ode to classic Westerns. Just stay with me here.

This week on Miami Vice: Trouble in Tinseltown? Crockett joins Caitlin in Los Angeles (or Miami with LA B-roll) as she begins her press blitz. He's not impressed with her shoddy security detail, her team and the lack of humidity and hightails it back to Miami for work only to become wrapped up in a case that's a little too close to home. Remember Tommy and the record execs who blew him up? They're going to recoup some of their busi...

This week on Miami Vice: There's a serial killer on the loose that's infiltrated a video dating network and targeting men who look share a similar look with...guess who? Crockett!

This Don Johnson-directed episode has toys (how scandalous for 1987 prime time), a legit sup...

This week on Miami Vice: So is this really when Miami Vice jumped the shark? Did we not have a poignant and touching epsiode last time that was very progressive in its message? And then... aliens but, not really? And not in an X-Files way, which would have been amazing! Anywhoo, when investigating the freak death of a gentleman who jumps though a window when he sees Noogie and Izzy dressed up like aliens, Trudy sees things no one e...

This week on Miami Vice: Vice gets involved in the adult film industry when a well-known artiste premiering his new snuff film, Death and the Lady, is accused of murder, not film magic.

This week on Miami Vice: A big-time televangelist's wife gets busted by Vice which sets off a chain reaction of events: framing Tubbs, a rogue rival televangelist, an Act of God-caused explosion (how fitting!) and lots of crocodile tears and fundraising. This very ripped-from-the-headlines nod to Jim Bakker is rife with zealous acting and wild outfit choices. And the power of satellite in the 1980s vs cable.
