Viewed three decades on, one of the most striking things about Miami Vice is that almost every episode features a recognisable guest star...With its anti-heroes and experiments with form, Miami Vice was a key influence on the development of TV.May 24, 2018

If you let Vice lure you along with its suspense, you will be rewarded.May 29, 2018
From its inauspicious beginnings when one television executive handed another a slip of paper that said simply MTV COPS, Miami Vice became the most aesthetically interesting show of the 1980s.May 24, 2018
Yet at its best, Miami Vice has brought to TV a swift and evocative mode of visual storytelling.April 13, 2018

Both the visuals and the audio were symbolic of bringing feature-film values to television.June 01, 2018
Don Johnson finally got his role of a lifetime and Edward James Olmos came on at midseason to great effect, but check out the guest stars...May 29, 2018
Its undercover cops (Don Johnson, Philip Michael Thomas) preen like male models... Still, Vice's virtues in its 1984-85 season are plentiful, including offbeat guest turns...
