Cannot believe it! We’re actually here. This is, for real, the absolute last episode of Miami Vice… EVER! After three years of slowly churning through every single episode we’ve finally made it to Freefall and we’re all so excited to finally see this episode. Regardless of all its flaws its still a great episode of Miami Vice. The biggest question we ask is: Would we feel different about Freefall if we didn’t watch the lost episodes first.
Freefall did deliver on very, VERY important friendship and that’s exactly how it ended. Even through all their ups and downs and the friction in Too Much, Too Late the master crime fighting duo are still friends. So many of these shows end with everyone parting ways and leaving tons of unanswered questions. This episode ends with… tons of unanswered questions. But, we’ll always know that Crockett and Tubbs still love each other.
John thinks Sonny has found his inner-meat fondler. Melissa has some advice for Bianca trying to distract the man in charge of the coup. Dominic loves the recreation of the Predator scene when they shoot up that trailer.
Its our last episode rundown and one of the best episodes of Go With The Heat ever!
