  • Miami Vice Theme HD
    The adventures of the vice squad detectives of the Miami Police Department.
    Stubble-faced detective Crockett lived in a sailboat guarded by his alligator Elvis. His partner Tubbs was a black New York cop looking for his brother's killer. Together they took on the Florida drug world. The show influenced men's fashions toward Italo-casual and interior decor toward the Memphis look. Very trendy music and unusual guest performers.
    Creator: Anthony Yerkovich
    Stars: Don Johnson, Philip Michael Thomas

      I rised up with „Star Trek“ orginal series , Star Wars „A new hope“ , „Battelstar Galactika“ , „Patroulie Orion“ , „Moonbase Alpha- or better known as „ Space 1999 „ and some others include „Cursor“ ( for this age a real Scie-Fie show ) !!!

      The good old days when most households only had channels 2 to 13 to watch, maybe a few on the UHF dial or HBO if you were lucky... Network TV was king, most of America watched the same prime time shows, and outside of prime time it was mostly reruns of shows that aired in the 70s - stuff that our parents watched, and now watched together with us. That's one of the things that gave us a better connection and appreciation to what came before us, a connection missing with today's youth.

    It was 1986 and i was 16 and couldn't wait for friday nights because this show was on tv and it was my favourite. No other tv show got close to this. Those opening scenes and this music make it feel like i'm back there and it's like the last 36 years never happened. I would give anything to go back to that moment in time.

Usually Sept/Oct thru March/April. Then from March-Sept you have the family tourists coming down. Just a very small window during those times when it wasn't crowded. Stores and restaurants always took that opportunity to raise the prices of everything. My 20 minute commute to work would take over an hour. Taxes were insane, insurance, house prices.
