When this story line started in season 4, a lot of people didn't like it, saying it was too soap opera 'amnesia' plot line. I thought it was the best Miami Vice ever did. I loved B-U-R-N-E-double-T realized as an actual character and not just Sonny's cover.
Same here; I must've been 15 yrs old but I've never got chills from a show like the scene where he goes back to the precinct after regaining his memory.
as epic as epic gets.. this cliffhanger ending was actually better than the next season re start.. sonny was just so dark and disturbed.. classic.. I was 17
The storyline was halfway believable, but no way would Crockett NOT end up in jail in real life at the end. That wasn’t believable. But at least they didn’t make it a stupid dream sequence or something.
I always felt the reason Burnett was so good as a criminal is because he had the mind of a cop. I mean Sonny became really ruthless the exact opposite of Crockett.
another top ten MV ending.. only there's about 30.. I'd love Tobe 17 again watching this Fridays and then hanging out afterwards.. truly a beautiful time to be young.. 80s baby
@@Euadam Gotta disagree. This storyline was solid all through and the ending of the show is iconic. Not many tv shows ended up with the MCs saying "fuck it".

That's why I slapped a thumbs-down on this video and deleted it from my watch history. Incompetents shouldn't be operating these channels. Miami Vice deserves better.
It was edgy and dark I don’t know for a whole season, it would have made Crockets story on a different arc that fact that it was 4 made his ‘Redemption’ more swingable
As a teen I was aware of the trope of "amnesia" episodes in tv shows, especially series westerns. As an adult I look back at this run of episodes and really have to admire the writers for doing such a good job with the story arch. And Don's ability to play a villain (or asshole like in TinCup) just sold it.
Not really. If you look at the previous episodes. Sonny's mental instability had been building up since Hackman shot Caitlin and then Sonny shoots Hackman in revenge.
Haven't seen this episode in almost 30 years, but for about 30 seconds before he said it, I was like "That's B U R, N E double T." 'Mirror Image' Sonny's alter ego was as gangster as it got.
@@squash2097 The 454 and 502 are V8 car engines. The numbers 454 and 502 are the cubic inch displacement of the motors. U.S. motors weren't measured in liters back then like they are today.
i was a Miami cop in the 80s with a partner, we drove a Ferrari. Then Miami Vice hits the screens and suddenly everybodys laughing at us while we on the streets. Sure, I had a mullett, and my partner was black too, but we were the real deal. We took out the trash, until this show made us a cliche. Had to quit. Became a robot cop instead. And then this movie Robocop came out...
I see after time they ran out of shooting locations. The pink house is used in multiple locations for example when Bruce Willis guest stared in season 1, Episode 7. “No Exit”.
Just watched the movie "Manhunter" (1986) and was reaquainted with Michael Mann's mastery of this genre. When this came out, I was pre-teen and my parents wouldn't let me watch this because (believe it or not), Miami Vice was the most violent show on TV at the time. I had to go to a friend's to watch. It's pretty tame compared to today's standard but watching it again, it goes down smooth, like a fine Scotch. Bravo Miami Vice.
I think it was a digital calculator. They did have those back then and they were that thin. I think I still have one in a drawer somewhere around here.

Captured the 80s for all time. The neon, the music, the big hair, the bigger shoulder pads, Coke wars. Cars, boats, girls. My favorite decade.
anyone who lived through the 80s knows it was the best decade
Hey, there's still cars, boats, girls, and drug wars. Check out the boats leaving Haulover Inlet. I'm sure some of those are brought with drug money.
It was the pinnacle of times. God I miss it
It was freaking fun as was the 90's but pretty much downhill from there.
And Chris Cooper playing the dirty cop. Too good.
And Chris went on after this to play in a time to kill
Interestingly, a then-relatively unknown Julia Roberts had a supporting role in this episode as well.
Damn this show ages like wine. Love it.

Michael Mann truly helped build that city back. If you watch the first season or two, you'll notice how dark and almost desolate South Beach is.
Mann deserves a medal for his service for Miami
I went there for grad school in part because of that image of Miami, figured it was my last chance in life to cut loose.
The desperation in Tubbs voice is heartbreaking. Solid acting always, perfect soundtrack and writing. Nothing today comes close.
Amen to that, brother...
The show was crap at this point. Lame writing, direction, production etc. Season 3 onwards its not worth bothering with.
@@Euadam Gotta disagree. This storyline was solid all through and the ending of the show is iconic. Not many tv shows ended up with the MCs saying "fuck it".
It is literally the golden age of television right now and have been for the last 10 years or so. But whatever floats your boat.
@@veganvvarrior golden age now?? Lol tv sunk so low that it's not worth it right now with the exception of 3 or 4 shows. Too much identity communist politics infesting tv
One of THE best scenes in the series
The ending scene in "Junk Love"!
It's B-U-R-N-E-T-T not Bernet you follow.
Gotta fool the YT algorithms.
That's what happens when an 8 year old ups a video
That's why I slapped a thumbs-down on this video and deleted it from my watch history. Incompetents shouldn't be operating these channels. Miami Vice deserves better.
Still unmatched style as Burnett and his personality in TV show history, wish the Burnett story lasted for a whole season.
Donnie Wayne Johnson is the tops. He told Collin Farrell to give him his jockstrap back after they made Miami vice movie. True story
I think it was too cheesy.
Amnesia, really?
Such a TV trope if the writers are out of ideas
It was edgy and dark I don’t know for a whole season, it would have made Crockets story on a different arc that fact that it was 4 made his ‘Redemption’ more swingable

That trope was the bread & butter of soap operas too. I wish I didn't know that.
For a second it looked like he was using a tablet, No, it's a calculator.
Calculator was the tablet of the 80s.
That’s how we used to spend our Sunday afternoons. Just calculatin’. Adding, subtracting, multiplying… For hours.
Lol me too...
Yeah hahahaha
Like the touch dial phone.
One of the best cliffhangers in tv history.
When Crockett thought he was Burnett, how did Don Johnson make his eyes look so dead
Great acting.
The final cue from Jan Hammer on Miami Vice 😎
Even though Johnson spells it out for everybody, it's still spelled wrong in the video title.
Hopefully a little joke.
That’s the whole point. And you missed it. Obviously this post is far to clever for you to understand
@@Golfstar17 There are two o's in too.
@Unknown Soldier Yup.
I like he callback to Crockett's Theme in the music. And is it just me but seeing Burnett using a revolver is just awesome.
The Power Yell from Tubbs!
I can still hear it in 2021!
I hear it in 2023 after 35 years since this episode aired.
Thanks for the awesome PQ! Incidentally this amnesia story line was greatest of entire series. Cheers.
Wow, that is one, nice looking HD scan and restoration!
Is this channel trolling us by misspelling his name? 🤣
Hagovich was so crooked that they had to screw him into the ground.
Crazy thing is this is all one episode. How many episodes would this take in 2021? He went from a good cop to bad guy Burnett in 1 episode!
Best episode of the entire series, the evil Sonny is cool as 0 Kelvin
Not really. If you look at the previous episodes. Sonny's mental instability had been building up since Hackman shot Caitlin and then Sonny shoots Hackman in revenge.
DonJohnson didn't make a big impact in movies but he was the coolest TV star ever. So visually beautiful and cool!!
Check him out at a young age in "A Boy and his Dog."
@Ace Buck That was like a visual comic book! The one and only Mickey Rourke was in it I think, right? They both had/have all-American style.
People just have seen the wrong Johnson movies. He shines in Harley Davidson & Marlboro Man and in Dennis Hopper's The Hot Spot.
Cease Fire was his Truman Show.
@@lenmil8421 I'll check out the trailer.

Incredible end to Season 4 I remember it well, and then the long wait until Season 5.
Best series of all time of you ask me.

Great scene...one of the best. Thank you for highlighting it.
Soooonnny ! I remember that so clearly, that episode was amazing
Bernet lol.
That double T
Sonie bernet
He spells it in the video and some idiot titles it Berrnitt
When Miami Vice premiered, I immediately splurged on a peach blazer and a salon grade blowdryer.
Man...great memories of this show, one of the best of all time.
I just love the remix of Tubbs' theme 3:09 😍😍😍
Nothing else like Miami vice 🌴
Holy cow!!!! That was Chris Cooper! Did everybody guest star on Vice?😅
Yeah. Bruce Willis was on that show too.
You can check them out here. Quite the line-up if you ask me. miamivice.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_Guest_Stars

Hell yeah-The other line I'll always remember too was 'I know what it sounds like when you cock a .38'.
still love the tune til this day....goose bumps.
fantastic show with amazing music
Miami vice was the best cop show back in the '80s I used to watch this show all the time back then it still is the best cop show
Are you misspelling names in purpose now to cover the first mistake?
Watched these over and over on vhs off of tv lol have never seen this in good quality. nice!
Love how the music just washes over the final frames of this scene..
I was like "that guy looks like Chris Cooper" ;)
Everyone seemed to be on Miami Vice....lol

This scene never gets old!
Best episode of the entire series.
And when he goes back to the station.
Best scene for me of the entire series.
I think that was DJ's own boat, I have seen him in it at the Tiki Hut in Key Largo. ;
Cool
When the boat starts up, the sound effects guy makes it sound like 454 or 502. Then when he takes off the true outboard motor sound is there. Snazzy
interesting what do those numbers mean? what boat is this? I can't find any info on it.

The bad guy on the couch was tweeting the details of the drug deal to some other bad guys. Very Avant-garde stuff in the 1980's!
Right? I thought he was using an iPad 😆 he's the mortician from Moonstruck
DONEIT2TIMES Omg! Of course I know they weren't a thing then
@DONEIT2TIMES You know what jokes are, right?
My all time favorite esipode of Miami Vice
Such an iconic scene
I think that sonny and Rico are the two best cops ever shown on tv. In real life all cops go through alot on the job.
That’s B-E-R-N-E-T lol
This episode just came on Encore last night! I wish I could go back before my time so bad.
Was that a tablet being used at the beginning of the scene?
My favorite series of the time 👍👍👍
love that track
Chris Cooper as Hagovich, I believe.
I came to the comments section to see if anyone else noticed it!! Yep, I too believe that's Chris Cooper!! He sure has aged well!!
Best show there ever was....
Is that Chris Cooper playing Hagovitch?
I like Sonny's boating jacket
One of the best cop shows ever
2024 now, everybody looks so young on this show!
Miami Vice will always make me think of how much fun the 80s were!
BERNET ?
Spellcheck, it’s Burnett

Haven't seen this episode in almost 30 years,...
One of the greatest Friday night TV shows ever. I got to live this dream. Nothing like the show but I had the soundtrack in my head while I worked.
Sonny could've trimmed that pickle fork a little quicker & better.. :)
How great was this show
Absolutely PRICELESS beautiful shiit!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Christ ,Tense scene here Between Chris Cooper ,Don Johnson ,Philip Michael Thomas and Edward James Olmos .
Was that guy using an iPad like device in the beginning of the clip?
Miss seeing MV on tv
The only thing missing was Sonny actually jumping a shark as he sped off.
love this show 😁
Best ending on this show
Cool music! 🎼
In France it’s Bernet!🤣
A much younger Chris Cooper here as a bad guy (Hagovitch)...good to see this again as I was a teen in the '80s as this show was dope!
Love Chris Cooper that is very good too in the Bourne's movies
Does anybody know the name of the Soundtrack?
Maybe you can shazam it. It's worth a try.
the music!
