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 colors and bright South Florida settings, which serve to counteract the sleaze its main characters often have 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. This release contains both the first and second seasons, featuring a surprising number of famous guest stars, including Bruce Willis, John Turturro, Jimmy Smits, and Pam Grier.
