Well, after watching about six episodes of Miami Vice, I've
come to the following conclusions:

        1)  It is a great program to *do* something to: ironing goes
particularly well with it.

        2)  By gosh, they sure do dress well.  I mean, I bet there's
nobody on the net who dresses this well.

        3)  The director of photography and art director are
excellent.

        4)  I've Seen These Plots Before: Tubbs falls in love with
woman he has to arrest later,  Crockett is seeing woman on the side who
is distracting him from his work.  Etc.  Raymond Burr, where is the
policeman's "Dear Abby" when you need him? 

        5)  Why does Don Johnson's dialogue suddenly sound like
Malloy's on ADAM-12, on occasion?  These two will suddenly have flashes
of noble sincerity (it could be sincere nobility) that seem a bit
out-of-place to two guys who were talking street-tough just a minute
ago.

Final Analysis:  Real case of Lotta Form, Not Much Content; but still,
one of the most entertaining shows on TV today.

                                                        "OHHLYMPIAA!  Olympia!"
                "Osiris!"
                                                        "My friend!"
                "What has happened to your nose?"
