We should all drive our TRs to where they'll be filming... Miami Vice - Reboot in Development at NBC? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I think it was on a parody site and got legs. Read the second paragraph in red. ?Miami Vice? Reunion 2018 ? Is It Happening? - Mediamass The only way it could work is if Mann was at the helm, Crocketts son was a second generation Vice cop, DV kept the TR (very limited screen time for both the TR and DJ), Inboard MTI 40 footer and Jr drives a white La Ferrari. The bad guy is Tubbs son who is not revealed to be Tubbs son until the season 1 cliffhanger. Another good director would be F. Gary Gray. He did Straight outta Compton and is a Michael Mann fan. But casting will kill it. They will flip the genders to make it 'edgy', and 'Katie' will drive a Prius. Fans will call it 'Makup Advice' and it will die a quick death.
'Vice was by far my favorite TV show ever!! But no way would a reboot ever recreate the great 'chemistry' that DJ and PMT had on screen
Seems like quite a long shot. So much of the original centered around the time and the cast. The cars played a central role. It's hard to imagine pulling it off today.
Unfortunately true, they can't possibly repeat the success of the show, it was iconic, classic, and a style creator....... I'd rather they repeated the uncut originals than put a half-assed copy out there. Miami itself isn't what it was back then
Agree. Everything came together in a confluence of timing and talent. It captured a unique social, political and cultural moment in the US. The closest since was The Wire, but that was depressing by comparison.
Noooooooooo! Not 'Katie'!!!!! Get Bruce Jenner! er.... ah.... I mean Caitlyn! Cheers, Vincenzo Image Unavailable, Please Login
Kinda crazy that THIS FCHAT THREAD is #3 in Google's results when you do a search for the subject line! Kinda cool. And BTW, looks like the story was fake. Image Unavailable, Please Login
I totally agree. That movie was very mediocre and they marketed it horribly. I was livid when I saw the previews and immediately noticed that it wasn't set in the 80s. I think that was a HUGE MISTAKE. I still don't understand why they did this? But you have to remember though, back in the mid 2000s the eighties were still very much on the outs in popular culture and what people wanted. Still seen as "vulgar" and over the top cheesey I guess. Amazing how times change. Now they call it the decade of decadence LOL.
