Miami Vice (1982-1987) IMDB Listing
Comments:
This show was filmed like a 60-minute music video. Slick visuals and great music were what made it cool, but the writing gave it legs (at least for a couple of season) with stories that still hold their own against today's 'progressive' drama TV series.
