Miami Vice (1984-90)

Post date: May 27, 2011 11:29:30 PM

Arguably the best buddy cop show of the 80s, Miami Vice revolutionized the look and sound of cop shows and defined the era. James "Sonny" Crockett and Ricardo "Rico" Tubbs work for Miami's vice squad, and each episode finds them going undercover and getting knee-deep in trouble. The majority of the show takes place in Miami, but occasional episodes find them visiting other locations.

I was about to undertake the project of identifying the locations throughout the series, but discovered to my relief that it's already been done!

The website South Florida Film Locations has a detailed episode-by-episode analysis complete with screenshots, recent photos and satellite imagery.

Miami Vice Online has Google Maps divided up by area for most of the episodes.

Thanks to those that put these pages together, it looks like a lot of hard work!
