Miami Vice was everything@ohmu I used to watch it avidly as a kid, and even now it generates tremendous nostalgia for me.
But it's not the same, I want to believe it's not copaganda, and I could argue it isn't but... Yeah, it's not the same. Or most likely I am not to same.

@afreytes
I had the same issues.
For one thing, Don Johnson's, um, "acting" kind of took me out of the story.
But, yeah, the copaganda problem.
It was one of the first shows I remember to paint cops and what they do with some shades of gray. That was something. But that gray counter narrative was mainly a kind of nihilistic cynicism.
I remember learning my then-libertarian-and-now-Maga cousin found the POV appealing and thinking "something is wrong". -
