[PHIL NGAI] Aren't the cops on the TV show more productive than those in the real Miami, getting more crooks per week than the real cops do in a year? (and aren't they a lor less corrupt?)

The fact alone that you watch and/or care about Miami Vice makes you a yuppie. :-) -- Life is complex. It has real and imaginary parts. Rich Rosen ihnp4!pyuxd!rlr
