  1. It's funny how you can watch something for decades, care about it, and yet miserably fail to notice some tiny details. If I ever knew this before yesterday (I really doubt it), It's been so long that I've totally forgot it. So, I've just notice that the opening titles change on Season 1 during Castillo eps. I'm not talking about the change from Lou eps to later eps, of course (no glow to pink glow, among other details, it was a big change!). I'm also not talking about the tiny change that occurs from "Calderone's Demise" to "One Eyed Jack" (no Lieutenant credits on the former, "and Edward James Olmos as Castillo" on the latter). I'm also leaving the bikini girls with Miami Vice jackets from NBC's first broadcast of "Made for Each Other" out of it, as it's an exceptional case. Here's what I've just noticed: First (starting on "Calderone's Demise", then with the addition of Edward James Olmos credits starting on "One Eyed Jack"), you get this order of takes: Then (starting on "Glades"), you get a slight change: I can confirm from my NBC broadcasts DVDs that the second version starts on "Glades" (ep09) and continues until the last episode of Season 1, "Lombard". It makes a lot of sense if you consider Season 2, because, even though S2 changes opening titles a bit, it's quite obvious its starting point was the version appearing on the "Glades"-to-"Lombard" segment. Yet, on Mill Creek Blu-ray, for that matter, Season 1 turned out to be really messy: the second version started later, on "Little Prince". From then on, the two versions kind of keep taking turns ("Little Prince" has the second version, "Milk Run" the first version, "Golden Triangle" the second version, "Golden Triangle part II" the first version, "Smuggler's Blues" the second version, "Rites of Passage" the second version, "The Maze" the first version, "Made for Each Other" the second version, "The Home Invaders" the second version, "Nobody Lives Forever" the second version, "Evan" the first version, and "Lombard" the first version).
  2. As you know, the 3rd Season opening changes didn't happen at once, as there were logo changes (white glow), the new Ferrari insertion (Testarossa) etc, cast changes (John Diehl). Then, at a particular point, Miami Vice had it's final version of the opening, which kept being used until the end of Season 5. For what I do remember, the official DVDs and Blu-Rays didn't show these little by little changes just the way NBC did. I have doubts about 2 episodes, "Stone's War" and "El Viejo", as I don't have the first NBC broadcasts of those two, but early repeats (things could change from first broadcast to reruns on those days, the best example of that is "Hit List"/"Calderone's Demise" becoming "The Return Of Calderone", then "Calderone's Return part I/II") Here are some pictures mapping the changes on Season 3 (if someone could add a line on "Stone's War" and "El Viejo" first NBC broadcasts, I'd appreciate it). Ep 45, "When Irish Eyes Are Crying": white glow and footage from "Calderone's Demise" for the first time on opening. Ep 46, "Stone's War": inserted footage from "Florence Italy", but this come from a September 11, 1987 NBC rerun. Maybe first broadcast didn't have it yet. Any help on this appreciated. Ep 47, "Killshot": just like "When Irish Eyes are Crying" Ep 48, "Walk-Alone": inserted footage from "Killshot" (the Testarossa footage) Ep 49, "The Good Collar": inserted footage from "Florence Italy" (but there was a goof, film was reversed). Was it inserted footage or REinserted? It depends on the first broadcast of Stone's War (any help on this appreciated), as the rerun of it from 1987 already had it. The next episode ("Shadow in the Dark") will correct it, so that correction suggests to me that the correct insertion of that on "Stone's War" was a rerun change, not a first broadcast change... But that's just speculation. Anyone knows anything about this? Ep 50, "Shadow in the Dark": "Florence Italy" footage corrected. So maybe the correct appearance of it on "Stone's War" is because it was a rerun? Ep 51, "El Viejo": just like "Shadow in the Dark", but it is a NBC Rerun from March 6, 1987. So it had "Florence Italy" footage, Testarossa footage, Calderone's Demise footage, regardless the fact it's still a Daytona era episode! My doubt here is whether the first run of "El Viejo" had the Testarossa or not on opening. I would expect it would still have a opening not showing the Testarossa, but anyway the first broadcast of "El Viejo" happened when the Testarossa was already a publicly known "part" of the show (any help on this appreciated). Ep 56, "Down for the Count": still John Diehl on cast, of course Ep 57, "Down for the Count part II": still John Diehl on cast (I've seen versions of it over the years that didn't have its name, but NBC's first broadcast have it) Ep 58, "Cuba Libre": John Diehl's name out, but Saundra Santiago's name still on the Testarossa Ep 59, "Duty and Honor": Saundra Santiago's name changes position and that's the final version of Miami Vice opening until the last episode of Season 5 So there are a few things to set straight: how were the openings of Miami Vice on the first broadcasts of "Stone's War" and "El Viejo" ?
