I love that Crockett calls him "Dubs" at first😁 Everything about this pilot episode was perfection. 1984 - anyone who wasn't fortunate enough to have been around in the 80's, just watch all 5 seasons of this show. It's the quintessential lens to observe the full range of what this time in history was like. I'm hard-pressed to find a show that captured it any better than Miami Vice😎😎
Tubbs was so young back in season one. I love how Tubbs would mimic accents so well, including that Jamaican accent that he puts on in several episodes.
to me, Don Johnson was one of the best actors in my generation. Every role he played in he was tremendous. I don't believe he ever got the proper recognition as one of the greatest actors of all time
Don Johnson was ready to leave the show at the end of its second season, and the studio lined up Mark Harmon or Treat Williams to take over the role of Sonny Crockett. The only one not happy with this solution was executive producer Michael Mann, who convinced Johnson to stay on. As a result, Johnson became the best paid actor in the history of television series. Johnson subsequently had to turn down roles in quite a few movies, such as the leads in both The Untouchables (1987) and Die Hard (1988).
6:38 is hilarious! I remember the first time I watched this scene, Crockett said something like "detective Shaft here turns up outta nowhere..." and Tubbs replies with "Shaft. That's a good one," or something like that. Here, he says "Dr. Voodoo." Anyone have any insights?

Don Johnson and PMT were born to play Crockett and Tubbs and together they made TV history. No one like them before or since ♥️
Exactly 💯
Please put some respect on his name Philip Michael Thomas aka Ricardo Tubbs

A team airwolf the fall guy that’s just a few others that where fucking A
People in the 80s lived for real, and this series conveys that atmosphere. I would really like to live in Miami during this time.
Could I tell you stories 🎉
Their not so cordial introduction to each other would lead to one of TV history's great crime fighting duos.
The synth music throughout the series was one of the reasons the show made it.

The Greatest 80s Tv Cop Show Of All Time, Their Hasn't Been a Good Cop Show Since Miami Vice Came To an End In 89
Fantastic show , even today 👍😎🌴🌴
Miami Vice never gets old and Don Johnson and PMT were born to play Crockett and Tubbs. Together they made TV history ♥️
Man how I miss this and that time growin up…Miami vice…usa up all night…mtv spring break…man what a time
This was the greatest series that had on television and they went and took it off and then I've been mad ever since❤❤
Turned out to be a great partnership.
One of the best scenes in the movie
one of best shows ever. Breathtaking after all these years.
Hooked from episode 1 for all 5 years.
Best partnerships start out with some friction. Good way to show both guy's personality. Plus no other way to go but up
Crockett was going off😂😂
He wasn't wrong.

His movie career would have been better if he took Die Hard
I remember that. I could have seen Mark Harmon in the role, since they both had the same look. Treat Williams, not so much.
" Sweet Dreams
Little Miss Sunshine. "
Cooler than a couple of icebergs.
Love that line from.tubbs got the party favours
And the rest is tv history
"dr. Voodoo" 🤣😂😁
By 1985,The Cosby Show & Miami Vice We're Both Number One Tv Shows In America,Both Shows Are The Best 💯 Period
6:38 is hilarious!

Dr voodoo probably is because of the fake Jamaican accent
Mandela effect?
Even in the french dub he says Dr Voodo..
Classic Friday night TV 📺 💯😎💯
4:25 love this score cue
I’ve watched this scene countless times but only tonight noticed there’s two people in the boat when Tubbs pulls away.
Incredible Actor's
The pilot that started a sensation.
And thus a great friendship was formed that night
The 80s We're Definitely Over , When This Show Ended 😢
Don Johnson acts more like Nash Brudges than his character in the show.
I want his summer jacket
Jan Hammer Chase also from the movie pilot would have been perfect for the car/boat scene.
You beast you!
Most renegade trigger happy cop meet cute in tv history lol
THE PLACE ON THE TRAIN BRIDGE. IS IT AS FAMUS ?. AS THE CROSS OVER ?. ON THE BEATELS ALBUM ?.
Does anyone know the song playing at the very beginning?
Your asking about an INSTRUMENTAL 🎵 really? However it was the opening theme song to the show. You can start there.
We know,that now
the scene is gold but in real life tubbs would have ben shot 50 times for moving his hands in in his pocket.
Hmmm
Wow I didn’t notice how pretentious this was.
Go back in your safe space, Gen z.
