To continue our summer sidebar on NBC’s Miami Vice, we’re joined from Seattle by the author and pop-culture expert Morgan Richter, creator and host of Miami Vice Changed Everything on YouTube.

Michael Mann once referred to the tone of Miami Vice as “Sunset Noir” and the three episodes we are discussing on this show are some of the bleakest in the series, with femme fatales, unreliable narrators, hidden secrets and mysteries with devastating conclusions that epitomize the show at its best, pushing boundaries for network television in terms of both style and content.

Morgan and I discuss why we prefer sad and depressing Vice, and lament the current absence on streaming of Evan, our favourite episode of the series.

Follow Morgan Richter on Twitter, and check out her comprehensive guide to every episode of the show on YouTube, Miami Vice Changed Everything.

Miami Vice is currently available to watch for free on Tubi.
