This series is largely remembered for the stylish clothes Detectives Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs wore, the soundtrack, and its distinct visuals. But beneath the veneer is a surprisingly dark cop show. The cocaine boom of the 1980s framed many stories about drugs and murder, with Crockett and Tubbs often resorting to violence in the course of their work.

5/10
Despite a few strong episodes and the novelty of having Crockett marry a pop star, Miami Vice Season Four is for die-hard Vice fans only as the quality of the show took an undeniable nosedive. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
