Vice and Easy – Details, episodes & analysis

This week on Miami Vice: Sonny goes back undercover to get closer to two bigwigs: Manolo and Gutierrez - against Tubb's wishes and ends up in an explosion. He survives (not to Vice's knowledge) but, has amnesia and now believes that he is his alter ego, Sonny Burnett. As he gets deeper into this new world, Tubbs is digging deeper into Manolo and Gutierrez (Antonio Fargas!) to figure out what really happened on that boat with help from the Ft. Lauderdale precinct. The same precinct that's trying to track down an internal leak to Gutierrez! What a season finale. Did I mentioned Julia Roberts?

This week on Miami Vice: Evil is the theme of this week as Vice hears about home invasions gone wrong when a 15-year old girl is killed, and the style matches that of Frank Hackman... remember him? From "Forgive Us Our Debts"? He shot and killed Crockett's former partner, was on death row until Crockett helped get him out, believing he was innocent. Nope! And now Crockett is about to cross paths with Hackman again right as Caitlin comes home from tour with a secret in tow. And I finish the episode off with some Sheena Easton Viced Tea!

This week on Miami Vice: Giddy up! Vice gets caught up in the middle of a Cold War battle of frozen bull semen between a cowboy, a bumbling fed (Harry Shearer) and Cuban spy in this ode to classic Westerns. Just stay with me here. It seems our beloved Izzy is quite the cowboy (in a redecorated apartment) who ends up getting involved trying to play all sides. Let's see how that turns out.

This week on Miami Vice: Trouble in Tinseltown? Crockett joins Caitlin in Los Angeles (or Miami with LA B-roll) as she begins her press blitz. He's not impressed with her shoddy security detail, her team and the lack of humidity and hightails it back to Miami for work only to become wrapped up in a case that's a little too close to home. Remember Tommy and the record execs who blew him up? They're going to recoup some of their business losses if Caitlin can't go on tour - for whatever reason that could be...MESSAGE! Back to LA he goes, and back to Miami while their new marriage weathers its rocky start.

This week on Miami Vice: There's a serial killer on the loose that's infiltrated a video dating network and targeting men who look share a similar look with...guess who? Crockett! Crockett is used as bait, which doesn't help his brand new marriage to Caitlin (Sheena Easton) who is worried that he'll end up with his manhood chopped off too. This Don Johnson-directed episode has toys (how scandalous for 1987 prime time), a legit supermodel (Iman), a working girl with her own credit card imprinter and Crockett driving through the red light district (hey, isn't Gold Diggers in LA?!?!).

This week on Miami Vice: So is this really when Miami Vice jumped the shark? Did we not have a poignant and touching epsiode last time that was very progressive in its message? And then... aliens but, not really? And not in an X-Files way, which would have been amazing! Anywhoo, when investigating the freak death of a gentleman who jumps though a window when he sees Noogie and Izzy dressed up like aliens, Trudy sees things no one else believes. Mainly a date with famous singer, now alien-enthusiast talk show host (??) named Lou de Long (guest start the James Brown) until she meets him in person and exclaims that he's old LOL! While everybody thinks Trudy's gone off the deep end, one young buck at OCB (Chris Rock) recognizes her story and how she feels retelling it and , oh yeah, he believes. But, does the rest of Vice? Come for the aliens, stay for the Disney-adjacent fun fact in Viced Tea!
