    Back in the late 1960s, when Zappa was busy with the Mothers of invention & also producing work for some oddball LA characters, Don Johnson was one of the locals who hanged around Zappa’s house. This is how he met “Miss Pamela” de Barres, one of the Zappa children’s governesses, a member of the GTOs (a girl group produced by FZ), and, yes, one of the Mothers’ groupies. Johnson made a psychedelic western movie musical in those days called Zachariah, with John Rubinstein, the son of the famous pianist Anton Rubinstein. Rubinstein went on to compose & perform the soundtrack for another unusual western - Jeremiah Johnson.

      Amazing how Zappa got so popular and famous for having zero airplay and his popularity got large just by word of mouth. He was a genius! I still listen to Zappa. He was waaaay ahead of his time. A total musical genius. If you’re a Zappa fan, every song he plays sounds different and takes on different meaning no matter how many times you listen to it. Zappa was just on a different level. A true artist in every respect.

    Some of the writing was sometimes hokey, but one thing I noticed, a lot of the main villains never overacted their parts or stereotyped their roles. This show had a lot of great character acting with some humor too. The noogey man working with the other latin informant was hilarious. Best line: "I'm a man of no convictions!" an ambiguous statement given that he was accussed of being a criminal.😂

    One of my favorite episodes. One major thing which only occurred to me now is that the boat would be a crime scene since there was an attempted homicide against vice detectives and that ultimately a fatal shooting took place. It would have had to been called in and Dade county patrol or the coast guard or someone would have had to detain and investigate. I know it's ultimately a show, but this is still a pretty major plot hole that gets overlooked.
