Kalci Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Great interview, althought would have been good to read a little about Hot Spot and about Guilty as Sin too I like and liked those two likewise. Anyway thank you for sharing. Otherwise I wouldn't have found it ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Good interview but one memory of Don is certainly blurred. NBC did not consider a sixth season of MV. They did not ask DJ for more episodes. In fact they wanted to cut 5th season down to 13 episodes. And 100 episodes was the magic mark to reach for syndication to recoup costs.

That´s a statement of Micheal Mann to this topic (an elephant-interview from 1994 which is also on the Koch-bluray, disc 1): "Miami Vice five years was good. I mean, the network would have gone six years if we wanted to. I didn´t want to and Don didn´t want to. Five years was enough." Are the memory of both, Mann and DJ, blurred?

DJ and Mann had to convince Universal in summer 88 to approve 22 episodes of 5th season instead of 13 as the network wanted to do only to reach 100 episodes for syndication as ratings dropped whereas episode budgets rocketed. You have to read carefully "...if we wanted to..." means the network did not intend to. and that´s exactly what I said. NBC did not plan to do a 6th season and neither did MM and DJ.

Matt5 Posted May 10, 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2023 (edited) A good new Don Johnson interview with Parade from May 5, 2023. Don talks a lot about Miami Vice, his new movie Book Club 2 out May 12, 2023 and about getting older. It’s a great piece. https://parade.com/movies/don-johnson-book-club-the-next-chapter Edited May 10, 2023 by Matt5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyfarragut Posted May 10, 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2023 This happens to me with a lot of TV series. If you miss it and they now are in S4 or whatever you have to start watching from the beginning to know what's happening and it's 'like hell to no'. I 've missed some good stuff because of that.

Matt5 Posted May 18, 2023 Report Share Posted May 18, 2023 (edited) Another short piece from Don Johnson promoting “Book Club 2” (5.12.2023) in Europe. He speaks freely and very proudly of our show & the extremes of the popularity of his show. https://amp.marca.com/en/lifestyle/tv-shows/2023/05/15/6461fa28268e3eca7e8b4588.html Edited May 18, 2023 by Matt5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
