    For those that don’t know, this story arc was supposed to last more than three episodes but the writers strike in 88 caused them to shorten it.

      I read a long time ago that the story line was supposed to run for the first half (11-13 episodes) of Season 5. Sonny’s recovery and the aftermath was supposed to be the second half of Season 5. Michael Mann had done a multi episode arc in both seasons of “Crime Story”. In Season 1 of that show, the Las Vegas storyline took the second half of the season. In Season 2, the aftermath of the H-bomb test and Ray Lucas’s recovery made up the first half of that season, and his attorney’s flip and becoming a special U.S Attorney made up the latter half. The strike upended all of those plans and the scripts that were written didn’t help with the ratings during the November sweeps period of 1988.

    Would’ve been DARK, but an infinitely more realistic and interesting tale, to let him remain Burnett, and have his friends and former coworkers attempting to bring him down for a season or two. Considering how they glossed his crimes and murders, just go all the way down that road.

    Hey Miami Vice team, is it possible to post this scene? one of my favorites, which I've listened to at least 100 times, which is very punchy with intense action, very well done editing, and a musical score by Tim Truman Pink Floyd style with his gripping and intense electric guitar. (This is in the episode "Victims of Circumstance", season 5), the very last scene before the beginning intro; Sonny and Ricardo in Ricardo's blue convertible car, on surveillance in front of the restaurant, including the shooting in the restaurant?.... Thanks :)

    This was an interesting experiment the show took in creating a 4 part story arc and the first season to feature a cliffhanger with Season 4's Mirror Image. Although the B-U-R-N-E-T-T saga started in Mirror Image it actually started with Deliver us from Evil which started Crockett's descent. It's a shame they didn't capitalize on this storyline in Season 5, as there is a whole period in which Sonny goes from working the Gutierrez to the Guerra's. This would have extended the storyline in Season 5, and could have peppered it with Individual standalone stories with the Vice squad in between. It would have provided the show with a better edge to either continue or close the show out on a bang. As it is the show's filmmakers, who replaced some of the previous BTS talent rushed the storylines due to the show being cancelled by the network. It's huge opportunity to provide MV with its best season totally squandered.
