Following the close of the fourth season and beginning fifth season, Miami Vice committed to a story arc involving Sonny Crockett suffering amnesia and "becoming" a drug lord lieutenant and "ideas mind" willing to kill for the latest kingpin until he could seize and empire for himself, shooting his way through a lot of crime family people before his memory as a narcotics cop returned, mostly thanks to Tubbs. I hated this arc because I found no plausible reason he could ever be a police officer again, and, if anything, would go to prison. He kills a lot of people in cold blood, even shooting Tubbs! Crime families fall, Crockett, in the personality of Burnett even shoots a cop with a gun on him. I just refuse to believe Crockett, even if not in his right mind, could just snap back to his old self and return eventually to vice duty.
Pure passion for all things horror
