Synopsis

One of the most popular television shows of the 1980s, MIAMI VICE helped define the fashion and music of the period while simultaneously maintaining a high quality police drama standard. The show is famous for its pastel colours and bright south Florida settings, which serve to counteract the sleaze its main characters often had to deal with. Sonny and Rico are two cops who work undercover for the Miami Police Department. They must balance their myriad personal problems with the difficulty of being undercover in some of Miami's most rotten criminal businesses. Luckily, upbeat 80s music, and their own personal sense of cool, help. MIAMI VICE made a short-lived star out of Don Johnson, who eventually won a Golden Globe for his portrayal of Sonny, and supporting star Edward James Olmos (as a police captain) won both the Golden Globe and an Emmy. The first season of the show has a surprising number of famous guest stars, including Bruce Willis, John Turturro, Jimmy Smits, and Pam Grier. MIAMI VICE is a fascinating cultural document of the 1980s as well as an effective and exciting cop show.

5.0 out of 5 stars Miami Vice Uncut!, 19 Jan 2006
By Christian Schmidt "Scotty" (Hannover) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This could be very interesting for german readers! THIS version of the Miami Vice Series is uncut. The version you can buy in Germany is totally not the same.
Thanks Amazon.uk for this offer!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very 'Vice' Boxset!, 26 April 2005
It's finally here after the endless years of waiting! Yes the first season of the definitave 80's cop show has been released on DVD in all its former glory. This box features all 22 episodes from the pilot film through to the cliff-hanging 'Lombard'. Don Johnson and Phillip Michael Thomas shot to super stardom in the 80's as Miami's best loved 'undercover' Vice cops. Many series and films have tried to emulate this ground-breaking series but none have ever topped it.The clothes, cars and especially the music all help to boost the excitement! The boxset itself comes in a rather nice slipcase with the logo and our heroes embossed on it. Eight discs are all neatly packaged with approx three episodes on each ( save for extras and the pilot which is split into two episodes for this presentation).The only things that would have made this boxset better would have been an episode guide booklet ( instead we get the 'playback catalougue') and some pictures (ex.24 seasons). That said , this is a terrific box to start the Miami Vice collection, lets hope thats seasons 2 to 5 make it onto dvd too!
