agent 47 Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Hmm.... it could be the crops of "White Mary" that is their national product that makes them look bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators timm525 Posted March 18, 2009 Administrators Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 I would think that with satellite and the different packages of channels one could buy, I can't see how Columbia could stop it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was expensive 20 years ago. They are still a third world nation.I don't know how to find out if they ever officially broadcast it.

Stinger390X Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 I agree Coop...Miami came out smelling like a rose after MV aired...Columbians should not be worried about the kettle being called black!I'm sure Columbians are resourceful enough to either get satallite or at least the dvd's "por-fe vor" (bad spelling I know) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not recent. Unfortunately, I didn't include the newspapers date. I wish I had on many of them, but usually, the date was no where near the article, and I also had no idea that 25 years later, I'd be sharing these with the world, or anyone. Still can't believe I had the forthought to cut them out and save them in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote']Norman cay was shutdown because of Miami vice , and after Norman cay shutdown Medellin cartel started to get problem on problem . before Miami vice i wonder if the public did only know what word cocaïne did mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Calderon Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 They did in Brazil. But columbia?.......I dunno.ColOmbia it´s a thing. Brazil another one totally different. On those days we werent widespread coca producers and inserted in the Florida context. Even today we arent. . In the 80´s, it´s kinda hard dont say (few) colombians werent involved in the background facts who inspired MV. It´s not a personal idea against Colombia people. Unhopeffully, in a 45 minutes episode some facts became stereotyped. I dont blame the colombian people to feel bad about being portraited in Vice.

jpaul1 Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 what the guy in the article may have tryied to say , it's that the series may bring back to life the idea of P. Escobar which him , harmed a lot colombian people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pablo Escobar was one of the greatest psycopaths ever , and somewhere i understand people that don't want hear talking of him again . i don't think it's the solution but i understand them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 They portraid Italian men as bad guys quite a lot.I didn't see Italy stop the show from airing.....Are you kidding me? I think Miami Vice is responsible for a lot of sales and publicity for Italian products: Ferrari's, Lamborghini's, Armani suits, Ray Bans...But what's there to promote Colombia? Cocaine? Nobody realized more how many people got killed, tortured and abused just to get the Cocaine business going than the Colombian people.
